		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes, a genius needs help to fully realize his potential. That&#8217;s the story of Willard Boyle, the co-winner of the&#160;2009 Nobel Physics Prize. Together with George Smith, a co-worker at Bell Labs in New Jersey, they have invented CCD&#160;(Charge-Coupled Device), a key component in digital sensor technology that was both revolutionary and widely applicable.

		<description><![CDATA[When it comes to describe a great leader, one who can inspire others to embrace change, there is no single word that can adequately do so. We may have touched on one such word, Integrity,&#160;in previous posts.&#160;Credibility would be a close second.

		<description><![CDATA[In the course of my professional life, I have a lot of opportunities to work with high level management. While many are great managers, few could be viewed as great leaders. You may recall that in my book, a great leader is not necessarily a charismatic figure but one who is admired by many. People [...]
