“Outliers” by Malcolm Gladwell may be as important to my management mindset as was “Moneyball” by Michael Lewis
Who knew:
- The majority of Pro Hockey Players are born January to March of given Year.
- 1955 was the year to be born if you wanted to be a founder of a major Tech Firm like Sun, Microsoft or Apple.
- That 1930 was the prime year to be born if you wanted to be a successful Jewish Lawyer in NYC
- That the concept of good enough works as in if you’re smart enough then it’s all up to practice and luck.
It gets a bit surreal but the science seems sound to me and I’ve heard Gladwell speak several times

Me I’m skeptical @ your average TSA Square Badge can learn facial recognition techniques with any certainty I am sure that their questioning will piss off a boat load of people and that some criminal types will be scooped up with all the citizens who get hauled in.
