Notabality of the person

I don't know about this guy other than just him being a columnist (or writer - as he claims) on TIME and Fortune magazines. Contents of the article does not idicate his relevance, and it looks like a promotion for his work (possibly to prove that he is a relevant guy). References are also unreliable, especially when the given citations does not have a connection to the claimed statement, seriously.
