My summary of Malcolm Gladwell's book What The Dog Saw is being done in three parts over three days.  Here is my write up of the third part of his book.

Part Three

The fourteenth chapter is called Late Bloomers.  It is about authors and painters  that are not prodigious but must spend much of their career honing their craft.  He uses Cezanne as an example. 

Most Likely to Succeed is the fifteenth chapter and it discusses the hardship in selecting NFL quarterbacks based on their college history and that of selecting top notch teachers.  I think they are both similar.  Wink.  Wink.

The sixteenth chapter is called Dangerous Minds and deals with trying to identify serial killers by the crime scene or notes that are sent to the authorities.

The Talent Myth is the seventeenth chapter.  It deals with highly touted MBA’s from top end business schools like Wharton.  It focussed a bit on Enron too.

The eighteenth chapter The New-Boy Network asks the question “What do job interviews really tell us?”  We it comes right down to it, if it is a classical interview the first 15 seconds are all that matters.  First impressions are everything.  After that your answers will confirm the interviewers initial thoughts pretty much no matter what.  Speak clearly and smile.  😀
