• Mystery and fantasy: Physicians branch out as fiction writers

  Christina Thielst Medical & Allied Healthcare

  In the last few years, I've received several fictional books written by physicians. This has caused me to pause and wonder about when exactly these guys have the time to write stories. I've known many physicians throughout my long career, and I had never thought of them as authors for the masses. But perhaps I should have recognized this potential outlet to the stressors they experience sharpening their skills and caring for others every day.

  Danielle Manley Communications

  ​According to Harvard Business School professors Rakesh Khurana and Nitin Nohria, being a manager in and of itself is not a profession. Why? Rakesh and Nitin argue that "true professions have codes of conduct, and the meaning and consequences of those codes are taught as part of the formal education of their members."
