For me there are strategic goals of the institute: overarching objectives that are necessary to fulfill the ideas and goals set by the founders of Krasnow, some fifteen years ago.
These type of goals stand in stark contrast to the tactical demands of the moment.
And it’s for these strategic goals that, in science administration, as in life, it’s worth going to the mat.
If one recognizes one’s strategic goals clearly, then it’s relatively easy to tease out those times to stay in the round of poker.
