“Ideas are a dime a dozen.
Being able to differentiate your
product and your company
requires a knowledge of the
marketplace and a creative
vision as complete and distinct
as your business vision.”

“The only constant is change.
If Babson only taught what
business was like in the ’90s,
I would never be able to adapt
to the world economy today, 15
years after graduating. Only by
looking ahead can you anticipate
and find new opportunities.”
