Most accurate observation and comment on this topic! With 10+ years of healthcare experience including Brigham and Women's hospital many years ago, he's a good writer, storyteller, but truly is just a famous name that Amazon-Chase-Berkshire venture wants. Without the Harvard brand, his work, while good, wouldn't be that highly praised and worshipped. There are better visionary physicians out there.

My main takeaway is: being a good storyteller or facilitator on innovation does not make you any more innovative without the experience to support it. However, it can significantly elevate your personal brand beyond your qualificiations and apparently lure wealthy people to invest in you.
