We need to stop basing education on submission and obedience. Asians are successful students, but they struggle to build startup cultures in their countries.
Edit: Downvote me all you want. I'm an educator who has toured schools in Asia to build international educational relationships. Their students are perfect automatons who will never take the risks necessary to change the world.
I think it's the Europeans who are failing to build successful startups (no need to talk about whether they are building a "startup culture"). People can quibble, but perhaps China has outpaced the US with regards to startups, and presumably China has a different cultural environment for business.
This article defines stereotypes as "unfair" categorization. That is far different than knowing the fact that groups have traits, and that categorization comes from these observed traits. Of course individuals stand out, that doesn't make the generalization a less useful tool for quick analysis.
