What do we all want to achieve?What do we all want to achieve?
How can IBLS help us to get there!• Input from you!
– Food for thought & not tablets of stone!
– Ideas, visions, commitment, hard work.
• Generate Confidence & Partnership!– Cohesive & Consensus Strategic view.
– Common purpose, pride, up-beat approach.
– Facilitate the work of colleagues.
• Generate Income!– Research Grants/ Papers/ High Profile.– Recruit Students (especially overseas).– 3rd Stream activity, networking & collaboration.

But in the end its all about Quality Activity, Income Generation, Confidence,
Cash Flow, and Investment!
But in the end its also about Personalities, Abilities, Motivation, Judgement,
Relationships, Enjoyment, Friends, Family, Scientific Thrills and an occasional glass of beer?
