the churn in the vc industry

colin powell joins KPCB - http://www.kpcb.com/news/article.php?frm_id=55

Why ?

1) what does the military veteran bring to the KPCB table ?
I am sure it is out and out leadership. Besides his huge network of friends across the world.

will this make other vc firms think ? will they go on hiring such political figures ? is there a churn that can happen in the industry. i personally dont think so. the herd mentality doesnt seem to rule the industry still, as it ruled the minds of people in the late nineties(during the internet boom).

interesting events happening in this world...is fun to watch.

{edit 1} colin powell has an MBA as well...so it kinds of makes him academically qualified as well for the new role.
