Roberto, Please don’t go too far away.
30 Jun 2023
Tough day today:
Retirement of a great sociologist, friend & mentor who, over 30 years, had as much positive impact on me as any
Basically followed Roberto from Stanford to MIT. & later, my main reason for staying was doubt I could reproduce our partnership w anyone else

Errors in three management areas.
1) Taking a firm private can reduce short-termism (e.g. Porter, 1992). Taking a firm private with a capital structure that compels short-termism, no. It might force you to make panicky cost-cutting choices.

No matter what skills you bring to the table, one variable always creates complexity: people.

Great article that touches on basically every theme of Competitive Strategy. I plan to use this case for my final exam next month. A few points that stand out threaded below.

Great (classic) cases on e-commerce. Many still relevant.

I was an MBA student @StanfordGSB 1998-2000, and it was an exhilarating time to be there. I was in the school's first "E-commerce" course taught by Garth @saloner, and some classmates wrote cases with him on emerging online businesses, many of which are freely available... 1/

People like to talk about meritocracy in economics but...
Networks & connections drive many decisions. The JPE case isn't unique. I know of many such cases in the top 5's. Those with access, an elite few, renegotiate journal decisions. This is elitism at its best not meritocracy

In early Nov, @MITSloan welcomed the inaugural class of the ASB Master of Central Banking (#MCB) program. The MCB class, consisting of central bankers around the world, engaged in 6 weeks of courses at MIT & a 1-week U.S. immersion trip as part of a 12-month intensive ASB degree.
