Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic started teaching MBA students more than 15 years ago.
Back then, all his students wanted to work for corporate giants like Goldman Sachs, IBM, and Unilever.
A decade later, Google, Facebook, Apple and Amazon were the big draws.
But now, graduates aren't flocking to the corporate world at all, whether IBM or Amazon. When I interviewed him by phone in July, for a story about the dangers of "entrepreneurship porn," he said of his students that today, "the vast majority tell me, 'You know, I'm going to be a startup guy. I'm launching something. I'm going to create the next big X, Y, Z."
