An excerpt:

Chakrabarty earned his master's at Carnegie Mellon but says he's learned more in the years since. Many MBAs, he says, are geared to the intellectual rigors of running a company but can be reluctant to get their hands dirty, believing that smarts and connections will open doors so they won't need to do the actual work.

"You need the persistence," he says, "to deal with the difference between what your plans predict and what actually occurs." [Nice line.]
