Entrepreneurs/Intrapreneurs
To be a good entrepreneur all that is important is that one builds a quality product or service that is compelling and seducing. The address, the management team, and the advisory board are all expensive accouterments that matter little to the final outcome. It’s the product stupid. For intrapreneurs – people who rise within a corporate structure – the game is very different. For such a person all that is important is how well he/she can be a recognized as a subordinate to a very successful boss. For intrapreneurs the product or the service is almost irrelevant – rather it is the office, the title, and the privileges that define their station. The skill sets needed to succeed at either one of these endeavors are radically different; almost diametrically opposite.

This day will go down as the day that the Iraq war was “unofficially” over.
Well I guess that Patreaus was right…
