Summarizing, the implications of my book’s approach for management education are (a) to be less adamant that data are everything and admit to the Knightian uncertainties that underpin democratic capitalism, firms’ existence, and their value-creation potential, (b) to establish a more appropriate balance between teaching judgment and analysis, (c) to follow von Clausewitz and teach synthesizing as a practice, and (d) to restore rhetoric to the curriculum, for management is a talking game.
