Book Smarts and Street Smart?


Trump and Kendra Todd from "The Apprentice"

Donald Trump select a "Book Smarts" Kendra Todd as his new apprentice in his TV reality show "The Apprentice". Unlike season 1 winner Bill Rancic is a "Street Smarts" without any paper qualification. Thus, it is really up to employer whether he prefer a street smarts or book smarts.

At the time Genting Bhd chairman appointed Tan Koon Swan as a General Manager of his company to develop Genting Highland Resort. Tan Koon Swan only have STPM qualification and is just a Senior Tax Advisor From Esso.

Even in high-tech industry, Charles B Wang, an American Chinese founder of Computer Associate(CA) in US also appointed a non-graduate Sanjay Kumar, an American Indian, as it Chief Executive Officer and President.

Thus, it really depend on employer.
