Here’s a good joke. I’m a dyslexic agnostic. I don’t believe in dog. Why am I telling you this? Because there’s a statistic in The Economist saying that 35% of US entrepreneurs are dyslexics compared with only 1% of US corporate managers. Perhaps corporations can’t handle people who think differently? For the record, here’s a quick list of a few dyslexics.
