I am blessed with a job that allows me to interact with over 1200 business and technology leaders in any given year. Almost 80 percent of these interactions are with leaders clustered in the US, Canada, the UK, western Europe, Israel, India and Australia.

Summer in New England is a great time to have a lot of conversations. I have a daughter spending a part of the summer at a local university (85% goofing off – just the right ratio) with 600 other students. It is a great opportunity to not only embarrass her beyond words, but to hear [...]
