The More I Move Among Workers And Factories And Other Plants, The Stronger I Become Convinced That It Is Advisable To Have As [a Company] President A Practical Man, Preferably One Who Has Risen From The Very Bottom Of The Ladder. Workmen, I Find, Have Far More Respect For Such Men Than For Collar-and-cuff Executives Knowing Little Or Nothing About The Different Kinds Of Work Which Have To Be Done By The Workers. Wherever Circumstances Call For Placing A Financier Or Lawyer Or A Papa's Son At The Head Of A Large Organization, He Should Be Made Chairman Or Some Other Title, But Not President.
