Madeline Albright’s comments reminded me of a talk I heard Paul Graham give at Foo Camp a couple summers ago. Paul was discussing the attributes of successful enterpreneurs, and he argued that the best entrepreneurs were open minded and had good judgment. He contrasted that with failed entrepreneurs who were stubborn and had bad judgment. Paul stated that while having bad judgment could be a handicap for an entrepreneur, if you had both bad judgment and were stubborn, you would necessarily fail. I suppose in Graham’s parlance, the President that Madeline Albright is looking for would be confident but open minded.
