It's ironic this isn't used more often to judge Objectivism's merits, though it's a bit disingenuous since it's prudent for most businesses to avoid having any polarizing opinions. E.g. Roark Capital, the owner of Cinnabon and Arby's that's named after Rand protagonist Howard Roark, doesn't seem to officially advocate the philosophy. BB&T under John Allison is the only one I can find that's indisputably both successful and guided by Objectivism -- $24B market cap, $188B assets, senior management required to read Ayn Rand, they donate to promote Objectivism in colleges, etc.
