Welcome to the Spring 2015 release of the popular, 13x award-winning academic Refractive Thinker® anthology, marking a new direction for the publication, joining the award winning books in the series as number eleven. While previous editions have been curated from a purely academic standpoint, Volume IX continues building on the real world connection by bridging the gap. Academicians identify and address the issues in each chapter and provide an interpretation for application into today’s business world.
From the theme of “Effective Business Practices in Leadership and Emerging Technologies,” to the foreword by entrepreneurial expert Sabrina Gibson, this volume is a true bridge between scholarship and the business community.
