‘The world is a monarchy – money is the king – and we all pay deference to it’. Ricardo Semler.

Recently I listened to a Tim Ferriss podcast, where Ferriss interviewed Ricardo Semler. In the podcast Semler shared the above quotation.

Semler’s insight coalesced in my mind with ideas from leadership luminary Jeffrey Pfeffer’s article, Why the assholes are winning: Money trumps all  and Pfeffer’s book, Leadership BS.
