The author makes the typical mistake of conflating business success with intellectual authority, of assuming that knowledge in one field confers understanding of other, unrelated fields (what would university dropout Bill Gates know about nuclear energy? and why would anyone ever listen to his opinion on the matter?), and of assuming that credentials are a valid indication that people are sane, knowledgeable, and well-informed, instead of what they are: a business management shortcut.
Coming out of the Catholic Church, she seems to have absorbed the usual process there for achieving understanding. A man said it, so it must be true. Ask no questions. Require no corroboration. Stop.
Why read this when I can listen to my drunk uncle Fred explain the world at family gatherings? He has testicles, I presume, so he is equally qualified with the leading lights of Silicon Valley to expound on fields that are not his own.
