When Ambition Meets the Ivy League Machine
A foreign correspondent walks away from the romance of Paris-cafe conversations, literary pursuits, a life of ideas-to sit in a windowless basement classroom in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Why? Because at thirty-three, with a pregnant wife and mounting doubts about journalism's future, he's chasing something he can't quite name. Maybe it's security. Maybe it's reinvention. Or maybe it's the seductive promise that Harvard Business School whispers to every ambitious soul: *you can learn to win at capitalism's highest levels*. This is where future CEOs are forged, where Jeff Skilling of Enron once sat, where the language of power-finance, strategy, negotiation-is spoken fluently. But here's the uncomfortable truth that emerges from two years inside this elite institution: the education is world-class, the network is unparalleled, and yet something feels fundamentally hollow. The school produces insecure overachievers who know how to value companies but struggle to value their own lives. It's a factory for ambition that rarely asks the most important question: ambition toward what end?
