Recognizing Globe

I know this is getting too much on the MBA front, but I can’t help it - I am doing an MBA. Hence, you would have to deal with some more MBA articles over the next 1 year.

We all know, or think, that MBA’s are really good at ‘Globing’. Now, while I can say those capabilities are slowly improving (not sure if MBA is the reason – maybe I was anyways going to get at it) I have learnt another thing – ‘recognizing globe’. While earlier, some speaker might have seemed impressive simply cause of his smoothness, I am now able to look beyond the smoothness into the content of what he’s talking and recognize whether it’s ‘globe’ or not.

P.S.: I am not sure if this is a great thing. The pressure to label anything as globe is so high, that everything anyone says is by default globe. Only if the speaker says something really impressive is he labeled as non-globe. Discounting everyone’s views for globe is probably not that good a thing.

P.P.S. : If you think this is globe, that is ok. Like I said, I am getting better at it!
