Of course, as they are few and far between, it's pretty hard to find them.
Correct. I realize that I'm painting with a broad brush. There are good MBAs out there (I know some).
The problem is that quality business people are so incredibly rare in tech that you see a "49er" dynamic (4s thinking they're 9s, because of the disparity). Talent should trade at a premium to connections in any forward-thinking society, but unfortunately we live with the reverse of that.
