Influential business people

In 2004 the popular US business magazine Forbes published a list of the top hundred influential business men of all time. Some of the entries on the list are household names that we would expect to be present. Other names are unfamiliar yet their contribution to the world of business and commerce is undeniable. Read an article which introduces three of the business people included on Forbes list, and then listen to a business book writer who talks about what makes a business person influential.
