Tom Peters Trio

"In a global economy, the government cannot give anybody a guaranteed success story, but you can give people the tools to make the most of their own lives."
From Phillip Bobbitt, The Shield of Achilles

"The future belongs to...small populations...who build empires of the mind...and who ignore the temptation of--or do not have the option of--exploiting natural resources."
Juan Enriquez, As The Future Catches You

"Let's compete---by training the best workers, investing in R&D, erecting the best infrastructure and building an education system that graduates students who rank with the world's best. Our goal is to be competitive with the best so we both win and create jobs."
Intel CEO Craig Barrett, quoted in Time, 1 March 2004

Empires of the mind, not of natural resources...

Compete with the best to gain and create jobs...
