Some gushing about physics and natural history (which a HBS graduate probably finds unfathomable and mysterious).
Yeah, cause all those HBS grads are just idiots, right? They could never fathom something as complex as physics or natural history. That's probably just black magic to them, even though a big chunk of them got their undergrad degrees in science or engineering.
EDIT: Some examples of those idiot HBS grads: http://www.hbs.edu/news/releases/kaplanfellows2010.html http://www.hbs.edu/news/releases/kaplanfellows2010.html
- JoeAltmaier 14y agoSorry; painted all business school grads from my experiences. You have some good examples there; I've never met those guys. I'll repaint it: this guy (who wrote the book) was a high-school failure and not in your list. Just read his stuff if you can, to see his level of physics understanding.
- ryanwaggoner 14y agoA high school failure? It looks like he got a BA and then went to the best management school in the world and then became a billionaire. I'd like to be that kind of failure. Maybe his understanding of physics is wrong. But maybe your understanding of the importance of that is wrong?
- meric 14y agoSo, you judge a book about management principles by the CEO of a company not by how well he articulates those management principles or how true you think they are but by his level of physics and biological understanding.
- JoeAltmaier 14y agoNo, because it reads like a self-help book written like an amateur.
