Light Employees’ Passion for Jobs
The door to positive and permanent change opens from the inside rather than being absorbed from the outside.

Lesson #4: Be Innovative
“It’s not a business,” says Lucas. “It’s trying to create something interesting that you’re proud of, and try out creative ideas that may seem really off the wall, may work or may not work.” From his films to his technology to his business strategies, Lucas has made a career out of taking risks and being innovative.
