Shielded Vision: What Business School Doesn't Teach

Shielded Vision: Lessons They Don't Teach in Business School is a memoir of strategic warfare, ethical dilemmas, and silent victories. Edward Jarvis, a turnaround expert and founder of multiple ventures, reveals how belief-not branding-built advantage in industries that reward discretion over applause. In this second volume, Jarvis moves beyond emotional ignition to expose the operational truths behind real-world leadership. From software that reshaped sports and media without fanfare, to pricing strategies that validated value through silence, every chapter delivers what MBA programs overlook: how to lead when the stakes are personal, the rules are unwritten, and the spotlight is a liability. Readers will learn:Why pricing based on belief outperforms market benchmarksHow software became a strategic weapon in sports and mediaWhat it means to sell silence and why it worksHow to build trust without endorsements or applauseWhy discretion is the ultimate competitive edgeShielded Vision is not a business book. It s a legacy blueprint for founders, operators, and ethical leaders who navigate complexity with clarity. Written with precision and vulnerability, this volume teaches what classrooms can t: how to lead from the margins, build advantage in silence, and leave a mark that outlasts applause.
