Over my 40 years in the business community I have found the exact opposite to be true.
I can't count the times a "ruthless" businessman has climbed over me on the ladder of success; stomping my fingers ... then watched as he took a headlong dive back down.
Those who truly believe this hogwash are those who have never made it - or - they are making it now by being ruthless (until the day of reckoning which inevitably comes).
Hey ... I been there, done that, bought the tee-shirt, too.
