It's unfortunate to see how deep this myth of entrepreneurship runs, and I think this sentiment really highlights the issue.
In the statement above, successful people are literally conflated with the stories being told by these business schools. In my opinion, the majority of successful people (and, surely, some of those are entrepreneurs) do not fit into the mold fetishized by the business schools in this piece. Indeed, that type of alleged "super entrepreneur" strikes me as very rare.
I believe successful people in general have no need to feel attacked by this article. It's those who have accrued bizarrely large amounts of wealth by leveraging someone else's innovation through legal cleverness and rent-seeking that should be (somewhat) concerned.
