I think it's a comforting thought that people only succeed because of exceptional luck but that doesn't make it true. Worship is a problem, but methodical research of the sort that went into "Good to Great" is not.

  Have you looked what happened to the companies profiled in that book?

    That's a fair point :) Fannie Mae and Circuit City being among them. The question is did they abandon the principles described in the book or die due to unforeseeable circumstances?
