Are Business Schools Clueless or Evil? – Gianpiero Petriglieri – Harvard Business Review

Really appreciate these must read posts- great collection of things to think on -and many need to be made actionable- so much to do-
Elizabeth,
Thank you so much for reading the #MustRead Weekly, and thank you in particular for commenting. The feedback helps me immeasurably to assess what is working and what is not about my weekly reading curation. I want it to be a rich resource for those who might have different constraints than I do in assembling our important mind-stretching libraries. I certainly benefit immeasurably from others’ efforts, too. I hope and trust things are well at MICDS.
