To be a great artist
you need to study The Old Masters. To be a great chef you need to know how to
prepare, cook and understand the great classical dishes because only then can
you begin to create new and innovative approaches that have popular appeal. Without classic foundations like an
understanding of how to capture flavours and refine textures with the
application of heat, you could end up with a sorry mess.
To be a great leader
or manager it’s useful to explore the great original thinkers of the 20th
Century or you can end up with a totally disengaged team.
