ReCivilization Series with Don Tapscott
Don Tapscott is an exceptional interviewer and is able to wind his way through the psyche of most of the people to whom he is speaking. His questions do not bring with them preconceived opinions or expectations other than the truth from the person answering. This exercise on the future of health care was of particular interest, with the exception of the comments made by the CEO of GSK Pharmaceuticals, who unfortunately did not wait for the complete question but rather demanded to answer every question with a pat answer. Still Don was amazingly gracious through the ordeal. The rest of the program was very well done.
