I am an Andrew Yang fan and like his ideas and constructive, original thinking, but this book irked me as it went on. Maybe *smart* people are *already* building things and just maybe over-cultivated, elite-sheep smart people are not particularly suited for building businesses. That said, he makes the very important point that as a society we should not be funneling our best and brightest to fields like finance and consulting that take more than they give back; our educational system should be harnessing their abilities to solve problems.

Andrew Yang, the founder of Venture for America, offers a unique solution to our country's economic and social problems-our smart people should be building things. Smart People Should Build Things offers a stark picture of the current culture and a revolutionary model that will redirect a generation of ambitious young people to the critical job of innovating and building new businesses. As the Founder and CEO of Venture for America, Andrew Yang places top college graduates in start-ups for two years in emerging US cities to generate job growth and train the next generation of entrepreneurs. He knows firsthand how our current view of education is broken. Many college graduates aspire to finance, consulting, law school, grad school, or medical school out of a vague desire for additional status and progress rather than from a genuine passion or fit. In Smart People Should Build Things, this self-described "recovering lawyer" and entrepreneur weaves together a compelling narrative of success stories (including his own), offering observations about the flow of talent in the United States and explanations of why current trends are leading to economic distress and cultural decline. He also presents recommendations for both policy makers and job seekers to make entrepreneurship more realistic and achievable. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
