Making up the rules in Brazil

Making up the rules in Brazil

Daniel Dantas prefers it when management doesn’t listen to him. When he has invested in a business and makes suggestions, he likes it when they’re ignored – it means the chief executive really knows what he is doing.

“When your opinions contribute to the initiative, something is wrong,” he says. “If you hire Mozart to write a symphony, he’s not going to take your suggestions on the notes.”

Dantas’s investment record is second to none so it seems not many people have been taking his advice.
