I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but HBR seems to push agenda-laden ideologies under the veneer of "science" or "business experience", which really do not map onto what most people experience. As a general source, I almost never trust HBR.
- vikramkr 6y agoAny sort of business publication or book will be the same way. That's just the nature of something as difficult or nearly impossible to quantify as business "success" - it's hard to tell what's luck, what's skill, what's skill disguised as luck, and what's luck disguised as skill. Best to take everything with a grain of salt, be on the lookout for those all too common fun "counterintuitive" findings (procrastination is good!) That make for good titles, etc.

- kinkrtyavimoodh 6y agoHBR has been like this for a long time. The quality of content is very mediocre, but is propped up because of HBS's brand. I call it "clickbait in a tuxedo".
