Experts?

Good Stuff. I really identify with Noreena Hertz's position on promoting dissent. It has been my experience that the business world has much more tolerance for dissent than what I have found in academia. I hope if I ever find my self in a supervisory role or better yet, as a professor, that I will always find a place for dissent in my sphere of influence and not only give it a voice but try and bridge the dissent to someplace preferred by those in the position of protest. I think power has become crafty to the point of "giving voice" but hoping it then goes away or worse, makes it go away through various tactics.
