//WHAT DO THESE PEOPLE HAVE IN COMMON?
They’re all male? That's right.
But what else do Steve Jobs, Carsten Maschmeyer, Bill Gates, Günther Jauch, Sir Mick Jagger, Charles Darwin, Vincent van Gogh, Brad Pitt and Mark Zuckerberg have in common?
Yes – they’re all university dropouts.
And they’re just a few of so many who achieved great things — for themselves, for and with others.
What does that mean?
Paper doesn’t actually tell us about the real potential of people.
Those nine might probably have failed miserably in many an application process or they might not even have been invited to a first interview.
Luckily they were able to unlock their potential anyway.
Wouldn’t not be good of such stories to happen bin the job market, also in view of the drastic demographic change?
After all, decisions are still too often based on what's printed on a piece of paper, aren't they?
