  5. Following the link, let's review, shall we?

    1) "I took a personality survey once that said that I was the kind of person who loves to solve problems—so much so that if there aren’t any problems around, I am likely to go looking for them."

    Please read that again, as it explains a lot. Diana Kander is the type of person who likes to create problems where none exist. Would you like to live, work, or associate with this person?

    2) "I watched both of them work 20 hour days just to get the business off the ground."

    This quote demonstrates her propensity for exaggeration, while admitting her proclivity to watch others, rather than participate.

    3) "Teaching entrepreneurship should be a lot less like teaching accounting (theory-based) and a lot more like teaching basketball (hands-on practice)."

    Here Ms. Kander is shamelessly promoting her latest scam, a "new" way to teach entrepreneurship. As if "entrepreneurship" is akin to playing a musical instrument! Will we soon see her on a late-night infomercial hawking her coursework to unemployed insomniacs?

    4) "The common link between all innovative companies is that they have figured out how to get lucky! These companies understand that it’s nearly impossible to guess which product will be successful. It’s much easier to stumble into it."

    Do you think Ms. Kander understands what "luck" is? And why on earth is a supposed entrepreneurship expert suggesting that companies "stumble into" success? Isn't she proving, in essence, that taking her course is an exercise in futility?

    5) "Less-than-innovative companies are usually the ones that think they are smarter than their customers."

    I would suggest that people who call themselves "senior fellow of entrepreneurship" are not as smart as the general public.

    6) "I’ve found that most people only have one chance in their life to quit their job, spend their life savings, and talk their spouse into letting them pursue their passion."

    This is nothing short of idiocy! It demonstrates that Ms. Kander is clueless when it comes to true entrepreneurs, many of whom fail multiple times before finding success.

    7) "I’m not an economist, but I can tell you that the entrepreneurial mindset is more important today than ever."

    Kind of like...."I'm not an entrepreneur, but I play one at the university." Why is it more important today than ever? She's a non-stop barker of self-promotion and jingoistic slogans.

    Plus she sounds like a lesbian gym teacher when she talks.

  7. CUNT. Her "entrepreneurship" is failed businesses like KR Legal. Ask anyone who worked with her at law firms including Lathrop and Kutak. She's the devil and her baby is ugly.

  11. The greatest trick the Devil pulled was convincing the world that "he" was a male.

  12. Forgive her? What happened?

  13. I agree she is a complete scam-artist with no real or meaningful business success. Keeping it intellectually honest though, she is one damn good looking woman!

  14. No where, I repeat now where in that article did it address her views on unsolicited bulk email!

    It did say she was born in Soviet Union. Oh a Party girl.

  15. It's a little obvious what the Sovietski Chic's opinion is on bulk email since she weened her boy Sly James, a Military Police Jar Head to steer the Central Committee at City Hall.

  16. Hey, @2:59PM. That is an epic rant. Whatever she did to you. I'm sure it wasn't that bad. It just ain't good to hold heavy of a grudge. Weighs you down.
