But it seems I'm naive. Business schools, for example, don't have thought leaders in information technology. And we think it's going to be like that for the next decade. When Anderson wants to talk to people on the IT frontier, he turns to venture capitalists and securities analysts, not fellow academics. This troubles me because I always thought business schools were there to illuminate and help solve pressing corporate problems.
Technology is, by any account, a pressing business problem.
Unfortunately for businesses, it's not a pure science. If anybody out there has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.
