GlaxoSmithKline's outgoing chief executive J.P. Garnier has started doing "shtick".
Last week, Garnier, let loose during a Wharton health-care conference on the deficiencies of the U.S. education system.
''In this country, you can take a college class in video games. It's appalling,'' Garnier told a roomful of aspiring corporate executives.
The French-born executive noted that Chinese and Indian colleges are cranking out science graduates in ''waves,'' and half-jokingly urged the audience to switch from financial training to science. ''If you're in the sciences, you can always get into private equity later,'' he said, drawing laughter from the audience.
