"We are living in an information rich, instantaneous, borderless time...the rate of change over the next 25 years will be four times what it is today. Leadership is a bigger challenge than ever before. Real leadership is not about prestige, power or status.
It's about responsibility."
Marilyn Carlson Nelson, Carlson Companies
“…there is a synergy when researchers, their ideas and teams work together; innovation is most often achieved when ideas and objects/tools are brought together in novel ways as never before.”
