A CALL FROM MARVIN BOWER by E. H. Edersheim

“Marvin phoned me to welcome me to my new job as an associate at McKinsey & Co. . . . When I realized it was Marvin on the line, I immediately stood up. My [MIT] adviser, who happened to be in my office when the call came in, asked with whom I was speaking. When I told him, he said, ‘I’m glad you’re standing up; Marvin Bower deserves your respect.’ ”
