Frank W. Woolworth Once Told Me That

B. C. Forbes

Frank w. woolworth once told me that the turning-point in his career did not come until he was thrown flat on his back by illness. he was sure that his business would go to pieces during his long, enforced absence. instead, he discovered that he had in his employ men who could overcome difficulties when given power to exercise initiative. after that woolworth left many problems and difficulties to be solved by subordinates and turned his attention to big things.
