- Mark,
I am so pleased you joined us.
You are the second person in a row with a strong academic background in this network and we so much need your voice.
I hope you will feel comfortable contributing and offering your point of view and perspectives. Minneapolis is close enough to Winnipeg that I feel a neighbour has joined (even if in Canada we put the u in neighbor.

I won't be wishing you "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Holidays" this December. These secular, generic salutations are popular in corporate America because they are not specific to any one religion or belief system. The business world, like America's…
Hello Paul:
"if you want to improve productivity and reduce costs, you need to
tap into human nature’s pleasure-fueled engine."
