Renata Teodoro, who lives in Boston and is a student at UMass Boston, spoke with WBUR’s All Things Considered host, Sacha Pfeiffer. Renata reunited with her mother, Gorete Borges Teodoro, who was deported in 2007, at a massive steel fence at the United States-Mexico border.

Why you should reframe your strategy as transformational

Posted on March 21, 2013

A post by Helen Bevan in the Health Service Journal In my last post, I talked about strategy as logic; that is, a system of reasoning we utilise, based on our views and beliefs, about how to achieve change.
