Perhaps there is a kingdom of wisdom from which the logician is banished? - Nietzsche
People leadership requires a deep well of philosophy to draw from, not merely a logician’s tidy formulas.

Mental models are better suited to navigate the jagged edges of dealing with people while logical-but-lifeless prescriptions can’t survive contact with reality.
