A management professor once told me that in business, the only thing you need to know is one special shape. This meant absolutely nothing to me until he began to show me how every fundamental business practice boils down to a basic geometric shape.

Here I am paying $50k a year and we’re going to learn about one shape – a classic equilateral triangle. You know, that guy with 3 sides, 60 degrees each angle, and 180 degrees to go around. Yup, the simple, classy, equilateral triangle. 3 sides, no frills, all business. A Harvard MBA teaching other MBA’s about triangles?
