Oprah's Leadership Class

I have been back to school for the past three weeks, albeit interrupted initially by the trip to London. I crafted a horrible essay, wrote less than perfect chunks of Java and Python. I began to ponder my future careers. In past I wrote a few personal statement on files. So I looked for a few material on Michael Bloomberg, so that I can suck up to his company when I apply for a position otherwise citing it as my personal inspiration when asked about personal heroes elsewhere.

So I looked at Slate 60 pages, http://specials.slate.com/slate60/2006/ for his speech give in 2006. Amongst the list of modern philanthropists include Ms Oprah Winfrey or shall I say Principal Winfrey? I read her Academy's Wikipedia entry. It stated that she taught leadership skills classes herself via Telepresence. In the light of controversy she offered her charges cellphones with her number program to it.

Two Questions emerged

1 Who is gonna answer her phone 24/7?
2 What is it like to sit her leadership class?

Err...

I imagine if you call Oprah when's she's sleeping, she'll return your call when she's awake. Pretty much the same way voice mail works for everyone..
