A Quote So Good, It Has To Be Shared

An incredible quote from MIT President Emeritus Paul Gray re: The LeaderShape Institute from 2007 - http://bit.ly/4vQhUS

"I've been here almost 50 years, and I've been almost everything--an undergraduate, a Ph.D. student, a professor, president. But I never really understood how magnificent our young people are until now, after having spent six days away with them at MIT LeaderShape," said President Emeritus Paul Gray, who formerly participated as a cluster facilitator."

At MIT, they spend all their time trying to be what we put forward as the model: the intensely rational, smart, driven person. Too often, they don't get to be or explore all those other things that are life," Gray said.
