CEOs, academics and how to run a restaurant
Desautels Associate Professor Karl Moore was recently interviewed on The Grilled Podcast to discuss his development as a businessman and academic, collaboration and bringing CEOs in to speak to his classes. He then interviews those CEOs on his podcast, The CEO Series.
Prof. Moore often has executives from the restaurant business in to speak, because “MBAs will all go to restaurants a lot … and you think you could run a restaurant better than people who actually run it.” It’s a demanding field with long hours and a fad culture that keeps any good player on their toes. Further, “There’s a sense of competition and collaboration at the same time,” from which MBAs could learn a lot.
