‘People Are Like Textbooks & Mirrors’: Stanford GSB Dean Sarah A. Soule On Learning Beyond Classroom

What if some of the most important lessons in business school aren’t taught in a classroom? Sarah A. Soule, Dean of the Stanford Graduate School of Business, offers a thought-provoking perspective on how learning goes far beyond textbooks, lectures and case studies. As she puts it, “People are like textbooks and mirrors” — a powerful way of understanding how interactions with peers can become a source of learning while also helping students reflect on who they are and who they aspire to be. From campus life and peer-to-peer learning to the everyday conversations that challenge assumptions and broaden perspectives, Soule highlights how the business school experience shapes not just what students know, but how they see themselves and the world around them. Because sometimes, the most valuable lessons come not from what you read, but from the people you meet and the perspectives you encounter along the way. Sarah A.
