Working with Barbara on the Rice Bioscience Research Collaborative was one of the best project experiences our team at SOM has had. Her real-world experiences, including senior academic and strategic leadership, as well as being an architect with an MBA and Doctorate in Higher Education, make Barbara uniquely adept at describing comprehensive and highly effective strategies with analogous references that are clear, engaging and memorable.

"Predictability is power." There are no truer words spoken than this premise from Barbara White Bryson’s illuminating and strategic book, particularly in a time of chaos and mismanagement. Barbara’s book is an imminently useful read for firm leaders at any phase in their careers. Universally, business, design and engineering schools will use this book to demonstrate predictability as the active decision-making model we need.
