To compete as a world-class company, world-class executive leadership is required. And while finding this elite leadership who will take your organization to its desired future state is critical, top-tier candidates probably aren’t going to walk through the front door. On the heels of the global pandemic and the mass-resignation phenomenon known as the Great Resignation, there is a growing global talent shortage at a 16-year-high , showing no signs of slowing down.

If you ask most people whether science is a public good, I suspect most would argue that it was, yet the output of scientists’ efforts can often be hard to ascertain, much less quite how the public benefits from it. Of course, a big part of the challenge is that it’s incredibly difficult to quantify the value of scientific research, but that’s what a new paper from the Kellogg School aims to do.

It’s often said that science progresses one death at a time. The saying underlines the difficulty of getting traction for new ideas.

All of us make mistakes and occasionally need someone to help us become better at what we do. This should always be the end goal of correction. And there are healthy ways to correct.
