How important is business integrity and ethical leadership in today’s society?
Today is the fastest day of technological evolution for the rest of your life; today is also the slowest day of technological evolution for the rest of your life. This provides us with incredible possibilities.

Can we ensure modern education for every child on the planet, lift the remaining 10% of the planet out of poverty, and reverse the implications of climate change? While we cannot predict the future, we can say that technology will play a significant role in these efforts.Guest Writer - Apr072020
