Category Archives: businessMy dad retired from a 20-year stint at (was TRW) Northrop Grumman a few years ago. When deciding what he wanted to do next, the choice became clear: He wanted to run his own business.

I’ve been meaning to blog about Kyoto’s “Kimono Passport” campaign–and point it out to Seth Godin–for a while.
