We turn loose resolutions into real quality improvements by focusing on knowledge sharing and outcome-driven goals. Along the way, we normalize failure as a learning tool and announce an accreditation update for core drilling vs testing. If you are attending the Technical Exchange, make sure to ask Brian for his autograph.
