LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman can trace his business success back to a childhood hobby https://t.co/42xeZH0Qme #leadership @reidhoffman https://t.co/joCL4938KW (http://twitter.com/wef/status/942763131633364993?s=17)
Hoffman became engrossed with the process of analyzing the complex rules of games like D&D to find the best opportunities for success.
While Hoffman, like many Silicon Valley power players, received his undergraduate degree from Stanford, he took the highly unusual path of pursuing his master’s degree in philosophy at Oxford, where he studied thinkers like Aristotle and Nietzsche. Again, he explained, it was the practice of analyzing complex systems of thought that he credited for his preparation for business career.
