As academics we are often very critical of changes to academia and often rightly so. However, we do need to realise the world has changed and we are still in careers that - despite everything - offer us considerable independence, and an opportunity to work with talented people and learn on a daily basis.
I suggest we compare ourselves, even as business school academics, not with CEOs or other successful business people, but rather with artists. Just like artists we care about realising our visions, being independent, not wanting to work for a boss and do work that is strongly driven by values and passion.
