[kictanet] Technical Maverick Moments

[Andrea Bohnstedt]

'Countries that have achieved the phase-shift (like Japan and Singapore)
have diverse institutional characters, with highly differing levels of
unfinished business where institutional reform is concerned, but they all
share high levels of tolerance for fast-paced technical change, technology
adoption and, above all, a strong culture of punishing technical failure.
The meritocracy of these nations hinges on one’s conformity to new
technical values.'
