Digital imperialism at a high pitch. Far too dismissive of the past. She should check the etymology of "research" (it does not mean "to search again"). Absurd to educate for technological advances of tomorrow.

Strange comment about the worthlessness of oral presentations (as she is giving one). Oral communication is a fundamental skill, a leadership skill. Thoughtless and arrogant to dismiss it so facilely.

She thinks she's an oracle.

[Terry Heick]

As usual, Jacobs excels at marrying new with existing, and gets too carried away with neither.
