Link of the Day #62

Today’s words of wisdom come from what might be thought of as a surprising source for business info - Conan O’Brien. Read his thoughts on the importance of preparation at the link below:

So, what do you think? Have any thoughts on the subject? Any stories of how preparation led to success - or the opposite leading to the opposite outcome? Enjoy - and feel free to forward to your friends and colleagues! And remember, post your comments in response to the article at that link (http://wyldaboutmanagement.blogspot.com/2011/05/instant-mba-prepare-like-crazy-then.html).

And for those of you who happen to have me for both Management 425 and 464 (either at the same time or in a prior semester), the alternate link of the day is:

Good luck - and take advantage of this extra learning (and extra credit!)...
