The Hot-Tempered Head Chef: The Early Years of Gordon Ramsay
He may be known in the UK for his Michelin star-rated restaurants, but Ramsay is better known the world over for being the confrontational and brash host on the television shows “Hell’s Kitchen,” and “Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares.” Those shows are just two of the business interests controlled by Gordon Ramsay Holdings, of which Ramsay owns a 69 percent stake valued at £55 million. A successful entrepreneur, Ramsay has come along way from his time as a boy who dreamed of nothing but football.

Lesson #4: Infuse Your Company with a Survival Mentality
“I started The Body Shop in 1976 simply to create a livelihood for myself and my two daughters, while my husband, Gordon, was trekking across the Americas,” recalls Roddick. “I had no training or experience and my only business acumen was Gordon’s advice to take sales of £300 a week.

Hell’s Kitchen Heats Up: Ramsay The Chef Is Born
It was a tough blow for Ramsay, not being able to play football anymore. But, in cooking, he found solace. At the age of 19, Ramsay went to work as a commis chef at the Roxbury House Hotel. Subsequently, he went to work at the Wickham Arms, where he was placed in charge of his first kitchen and its 60-seat dining room.

Lesson #1: Standards Are The Staple of Any Business
“When you start spreading yourself too thinly, you can fail to meet the same standards the second or third time round,” says Ramsay. “We've worked hard at this and now have 12 restaurants across the world.”

Lesson #4: Discipline Yourself So Your Customers Do Not Have To
“Discipline yourself, become hard on yourself,” says Ramsay. “I’ve never had dinner in my own restaurant. I’ve never sat and had a glass of champagne with customers. Don’t indulge yourself in your business – treat it as a business.”

Lesson #5: Know Whose Dish You Are Serving
“The secret of a successful chef is to put yourself in the customer’s position,” says Ramsay. “By that I mean thinking about what they want.”

Sampling Success: How Bad Chef Ramsay Makes Good
“Chefs are s*** at running businesses,” says Ramsay. “When you look at the f***-ups with Marco [Pierre White] and [Jean-Christophe] Novelli, and what they’ve done in terms of how their businesses have disappeared without a trace, it’s because they’ve tried to run those businesses themselves.” Ramsay may be the exception to his own rule.

How did this temperamental man who once dreamed of playing professional football become one of the most celebrated chefs today?
