Abstract
The author serves as a ''boundary spanner'' to compare and contrast th e academic world and the world of the owner-chief executive officer (C EO). Insights gained from 6 years of working closely with these CEOs a re directed at helping the academic OB field see itself in a broader p erspective and to encourage a shift in emphasis. Implications for teac hing, research, and the conduct of one's own career are drawn from thi s odyssey.
