After getting some Math and Comp Sci degrees, I hung around in academia for a decade working on a couple of interesting projects. Then I decided to join the Real World. It took several years to learn how to deal with the easily-bruised egos in that you find there. I still tend to think of business folks as utter wimps compared to the folks in academia.
Interesting that I should come across a particular used book today. The jacket has a caricature of a appropriately-dressed, medieval-looking fellow peering into a mirror; The book is:
"Is My Armor On Straight? - A Year in the Life of a University President" by Richard Berendzen, American University, Washington DC.
