The phrase “once a cop, always a cop” never made
much sense to me. Slowly I am awakening to the reality that this phrase does
have some important point to make. Mind gets accustomed to think in a certain
way, and it fails to look at reality in any other way
That’s what happens when one is an OB professor. You
end up looking at everything from OB perspective and also converting every
subject as a derivative of OB. It does not matter whether it is business
ethics, international business or emerging market, everything looks like OB.
Whether it is corruption or marital problem,
economic crisis or religious fanaticism, your analysis and conclusions are
based only on OB concepts. Eyes see nothing more and mind remembers nothing
else, you end up with one way track. I became aware of this illness only after
making an attempt to teach International Business. After the class, I was just
reflecting what the hell I was teaching. To my horror I realized that it was
just another class from OB.
Either I am an expert or just a bluff master.
History will make the final judgment (as if history has no other business to do except passing judgements). I think it is high time that I stop
teaching OB and forget about Freud and his gang. And venture into some other
subject altogether.
