The Venture Edge

I couldn’t let Peter’s post pass (notice the alliteration) without commenting because I’m not sure I agree totally with the premise of the New Yorker article he referred to. I have served as a director of a NYSE company for 9 years and on several private company boards and have talked to many public company directors across the country. We need to be very careful about painting a broad brush when we talk about some of the things the public is unhappy about because of the subprime debacle and the auto industry implosion.
