“I have seen it teaching the business school students, that they are incredibly good, the MBAs, at faking like they know the answer when they have no idea. But that is so counterproductive. I mean think about it. It might keep your job for another week or another month, it might make people think you are good, but that’s not the point. I mean what fun is life if all you do is go through life trying to fake that you are something that you are not when really the goal is to be good, and to improve, and to learn, and to make things better. And the only way to do that is to start by saying I don’t know. And when I don’t know, I don’t know.”
