Oliver MilmanToday on StartupSmart, we reflect on a tumultuous week for Australia’s best-known entrepreneur – Rupert Murdoch.

With this in mind, we take a look at Murdoch’s 59-year business career and pick out his 10 best entrepreneurial moments. Just make sure you don’t emulate his recent approach to accountability.

Elsewhere, in her final blog for StartupSmart, Ms Manners explains how a simple smile can aid you in the business world and mentor Phil Weinman gives some tips on how to get a good deal from an investor.
