Remembering my dad today on his birthday ā he would have been 103. Dad led an extraordinary life and was smart and quick-witted.
While he could always make us laugh, he was also quiet, always caring and comforting ā calling me ādear boyā even when I was naughty ā and full of wonderful advice.
He taught me the power of stories, how to see the humour in everything, how to wear my heart on my sleeve. Most of all, he taught me what it means to be a father and how important family is.
We have a family tradition of calling each other on the birthday of a lost relative - Iāve been on the phone to all my family today to say hello and to sing dad a happy birthday.

Our new pup Bento is having a great time exploring the island, paddling around in the sea and meeting the lemurs, the parrots and all the other wildlife that call Necker home https://virg.in/ZXDW

Necker & whole area has been completely devastated. Virgin Unite donated to British Red Cross appeal to provide aid, Virgin Atlantic flight to help recovery. Urge everyone to donate & support any way they can. Thanks for all your well-wishes & support
Delighted to be on the flightline to watch Virgin Galacticās first human spaceflight from the majestic Spaceport AmericaĀ https://virg.in/ZLmtĀ #Unity21
My dyslexic thinking skills of being imaginative but keeping things simple helped me build Virgin into the brand it is today.
Throughout my life Iāve simplified everything. I didnāt like flying very much (most airlines seemed to be expensive, stuffy, and bland), so I got out a piece of paper and worked out how to start an airline - but do it better. We launched Virgin Atlantic with just one plane and went on from there. More recently, we started a cruise line and followed the same approach of keeping it simple but doing it better. The approach worked again, and Virgin Voyages became the first brand to ever win all five awards at the Cruisersā Choice Awards this year. Hereās more on how my dyslexic thinking helped Virgin become the brand it is today: https://virg.in/UgCx

Do you think an introvert can be a good leader? Yes, I really do.
On my #AskRichard newsletter, I've explained exactly why.
Thank you for such a great question, Alexis Corredor.

Iāve always been a dreamer. My mum taught me to never give up and to reach for the stars. On July 11, itās time to turn that dream into a reality aboard the next Virgin Galactic spaceflightĀ https://virg.in/4wiTĀ #Unity22
So proud of my son @sambranson for making this moving documentary on the #BVI community: Help, hope & hurricanes
My thoughts on why I think workplace wellbeing is so important and what some of our Virgin companies are doing to support their people: https://virg.in/waH
I wholeheartedly believe most people are fundamentally kind, decent and want to do good in the world. But when some people get into positions of power, this instinct can sometimes get lost.
This can lead to a dreadful loss of reputation, not just for the individual, but for the country they lead as well. A great reputation takes a long time to build, and a very short time to destroy.
Imagine a land known for opening its arms to newcomers, creating a vibrant, diverse society and an unprecedentedly dynamic economy.
Imagine a land collaborating with the world, trading goods, exchanging ideas, helping other places to grow and thrive while creating new opportunities at home too.
Imagine a land that offers aid to those in need, protects its allies when they are threatened, and always keeps its promises.
Imagine a land that treats all of its citizens equally, providing healthcare, protecting education and sanctifying civil and human rights.
To me, that sounds like a land of kindness and strength. A land of opportunity, you might say. A land of the free, even.
Now imagine the opposite. Picture all of those values being torn down, all those laws being ripped up, all those promises being broken. How overwhelmingly sad.
But kindness is strength. And humanity is remarkably resilient. As James Baldwin said: āThere may not be as much humanity in the world as one would like to see. But there is some. Thereās more than one would think.ā
Just Imagine.

The rhino has hardly evolved in 50 million years - itās a living, breathing time machine. Iāve shared my thoughts on what gives me hope in the fight to preserve the rhino from extinction: https://virg.in/Enj

When I say people pitch their business ideas to me everywhere - I mean it! While walking in New York, this wonderful woman screeched her bicycle to a halt when she saw me to tell me about her business idea. This attitude will take you far as an entrepreneur. I encouraged her to head to Virgin Hotels New York City to pitch her idea to the Doorbell of Dreams and she started biking in that direction. Who knows where it might take you! https://bit.ly/3JU1iMG
The idea of a five-day working week is fast becoming outdated ā what will the future of work look like?
