replies: text: Porter is widely taught in modern business school. HIs theories were in no less than five text books for my MBA. There should be a lot more pats on his back in this article not less. The word "outstanding" is important and assuming is not a reason for removal.  It is simply not realistic that one the best known Harvard Business School Professors with many accomplishments to his name cares about at all about Wikipedia which is not seen as a legitimate source to academia.  The thought that he hyperbolized on his college golf game but forget major business theories he wrote is also not likely. Finally, the sports achievements are important to the cultivation of his strategic and organizational business ideas. They are how he learned to apply across industries and markets basic theories. Each sport played is like a new market with different rules, different people and different locations. The edit should be reversed with a comment that it needs a citation.

replies: text: I completely disagree.  Porter is widely taught in modern 21st century business school.  He is a great and influential professor. This is why the article is positive. No less than five of my seventeen MBA courses had a textbook that talked about Porter and another dimension of his theories. No other person past or present was mentioned that many times except Buffet and Graham. Porter's impact is cross disciplinary. He was able to simplify ideas that others complicated. I see jealously here. My two cents. The-OG-Truth (talk) 19:43, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

message: He seems to be a leading chap in the field of management and strategy, but doesn't this article seem a little too positive? My name is not dave (talk) 21:39, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: He is the leading living US business scholar.  Why can't this article be positive?   He changed the face of business strategy in the 21st century. I feel like I should get list of textbooks and show people on this talk page that Porter dominates 21st Century strategic management and deserves a better page  than this one.

message: Dear Wikipedia editors,
Please, can the following changes and updates be made to Michael Porter's pages? 
The Career section of Porter's biography does not fully represent his earliest work in "Strategy and Competition." The requested edits add a new subheading section for it. The content is sourced from the Harvard Business School faculty directory and profiles at https://www.hbs.edu/faculty/Pages/profile.aspx?facId=6532.
Additionally, I have updated the number of books and McKinsey Awards Professor Porter has. 
Please see below for all suggested requests.
Michael Porter is the author of 19 books and numerous articles including Competitive Strategy, Competitive Advantage, Competitive Advantage of Nations, and On Competition. A seven-time winner of the McKinsey Award for the best Harvard Business Review article of the year , and Professor Porter is the most cited author in business and economics.
Michael Porter’s early work was on industry competition and company strategy, where he was the pioneer in utilizing economic theory to develop a more rigorous understanding of industry competition and the choices companies make to compete. Out of his research, Dr. Porter developed the Porter's five forces framework as a tool for analyzing business and industry competitiveness. In addition to advancing his home field of industrial organization economics, Dr. Porter’s work has defined the modern strategy field.
Thank you, Cmproject (talk) 21:37, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
