Developing Perspectives

摘要

With the recent rise in global competition for technology and manufacturing jobs, professional associations, labor organizations, and political groups in the United States have begun to emphasize the need for innovation as a means of retaining and even expanding the domestic workforce. While many universities offer courses on innovation, it's not an ability that can be acquired by passively attending a lecture, reading a book, or surfing the Web. Furthermore, innovators aren't born. They develop their talents through active, directed, hands-on experience.
