Term 2: In the wrong places

B-School is fascinating academically…for the most part…but every now and then you find yourself running up against it. Professors steeped deeply in research deliver smug monologues on how businesses are run and how they ought to be run.
Heck - if there’s a problem, then there must be an amiable equation round the corner just waiting to bail you out.

Life’s unpredictability can be regressed out… A resource crunch can be optimized away… or hey worst case…let’s just simulate unpredictability ..predictably. Like I said its fascinating stuff – and I can’t wait to get back into the real world and try my new toys out. (Smirk Smirk!)

But wait –who said B school was about number crunching? We have leadership and values too. All neatly categorized, chaptered and bulleted. Pick whichever suits your fancy. They all lead the same way anyway.

There’s some more riveting stuff I’ve simply gotta tell you ..but its late, and I’ve a Entrepreneurship class - complete with live entrepreneur – in about four hours. More tomorrow.
