    No offense to you globalist MBA's, but you can throw a rock and hit a Harvard Professor who will back up whatever you believed in the first place.

    This one happened to write book(s) with Oprah/Dr.Phil and worked with AEI and the RAND Corp. Color me shocked.

    I haven't looked up this dude yet but if I'm a betting man I'd bet he is a professor in Harvard's business school.

    It's always the business schools that have the least intellectually curious most grifter like academic professors.

    Business school isn't a real academic intellectually curious endeavor.

    Human civilization would be further advanced with less poverty if MBAs didn't exist.

    He's a career academic who has done nothing in the real world, and yes, he's part of Harvard's Business School.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_C._Brooks

    Aren't these the exact types of "academics" that yall conservatives have railed against for years?

    He seems like a grifter after looking him up. Not a ounce of intellectual curiosity.
