Whether designing an airplane, assembling a motorcycle, or analyzing a human genome, the ability to integrate the talents of dispersed individuals and organizations is becoming the defining competency... / Tapscott, Don / Williams, Anthony D. -- Manitoba Hydro Place, Winnipeg -- George Brown College, Waterfront Campus, Toronto -- Bridgepoint Health, Toronto -- Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario, Toronto -- 2015 Pan/Parapan American Games Athletes' Village/Canary District, Toronto -- Staff Since 1987 -- Project Credits -- About KPMB -- Clients, Collaborators, Projects Since 1987 -- Selected Bibliography -- Contributors -- Illustration Credits -- Acknowledgements |
