The 'value added' for most any company, tiny or enormous, comes from the Quality of Experience provided.

real creativity school
I imagine a school system that recognizes learning is natural, that a love of learning is normal, and that real learning is passionate learning. A school curriculum that values questions above answers...creativity above fact regurgitation...individuality above conformity.. and excellence above standardized performance..... And we must reject all notions of 'reform' that serve up more of the same: more testing, more 'standards', more uniformity, more conformity, more bureaucracy.

You are your projects!
You can only improve what you measure.

Every managerial act must be seen as an unequivocal support for urgency in pursuit of constant testing, change, and improvement.
Bold botches are to be cherished.
