Many have siblings or other Arelatives, friends or colleagues in the Mideast. Here on campus there have been several forums to discuss the crisis, and individuals and organizations have rallied in support of our forces. Several support groups have been set up for those who need assistance in coping with the stress brought on by the conflict. We are one in the hope that the fighting will be brief and that justice will prevail.

During February we celebrated Black History Month with a marvelous series featuring a broad spectrum of cultural and educational events. A special highlight was the Bryant (1,11 r ru presentation by Dr. Alvin Poussaint, a highly respected psychologist, associate dean of the n Medical School, and advisor to "The Cosby Show.

Leadership is the focus of this issue of the Bryant Review. Although many words have been spoken about it, leadership remains a quality easily recognized but difficult to define. We know what "the n when we see it, but how does it fit together?

To aid us in understanding this elusive topic, we enlisted the aid of Professor Ronald Deluga, who coo Learning for Leadership program at Bryant. The editor also talked with outstanding leaders in a varie!) from publishing to government and manufactUring to the military. Reading their comments on leaders provide new insights on this intriguing subject.

This issue of the Bryant Review carries notice of the alumni reunion June 7, 8, and 9. "Alumni Celeb rat Americana" promises to be a treat for all those attending. We are particularly pleased that trustee John '87H, recently retired editor of USA Today, will preside at one of its seminars. He will be joined by William leFevre, one of the nation's foremost financial consultants, who is a regular guest on the CBS-TV network and . Financial News Network's (FNN) "Business Tonight."

Our reunions are getting better every year, and 1991 promises to be the best yet. I hope that all alumni, and particularly those celebrating their five year anniversaries, will join us on the Smithfield campus during the second weekend in June.

2 BR YA N T REVIEW· WINTER 1991 Government for the People More Than Just a Quote for Biology Professor

by Douglas J. Higbee '91

rofessor Gaytha Langlois, who has taught the complexities of biology to Bryant students for more than 20 years, firmly believes government should be responsive to people's needs, Pand she has been acting on that belief for some time. Langlois has been a member of the South Kingstown, RI, Town Council since 1985, serving as an environmental specialist on various issues. Her political involvement arose both from her CO!1cern for the plagued environment, and her belief that government should be "for the people.'

"I strongly advocate the role of citizens and believe that government Langlois' encouragement of public participation in government has should listen to them," says Langlois. "So when people come to speak, aided her tremendously in her teaching.

WINTER 19 9 1 • BRYANT REV I EW 9 Leaders in the New Order

by Jeannine Wilson

ne thing seems very certain as we move deeper into the '90s: the challenges ahead for American businesses will Obe greater than anything they have experienced in the past. To develop some insight about the ki nds of leaders corporate America will need in the years ahead, we talked with three Bryant alu mn i who are leaders in their fie lds, two fro m industry and one from the pub lic sector. Al though they represent different gene rations and varied perspectives, this notable group had many similar views on the type of leadership American companies will need as we prepare to turn the co rner on a new century.

First and Fastest Without a doubt, one of the constants of the new cen tu ry wi ll be change. Tech nology has speeded up the pace of change to such a degree, observes Richard Haines '65 , president of May tag Company, a subsidiary of May tag Corpo ration, that "change will be more the rule than the exception."

Haines, who is responsible for the corporation's May tag and Admiral appliance lines, believes that "management skills alone will not be enough for corporate leaders to mee t the needs of the rapidly changing environment. Doing more of what we did in the '70s and '80s will commit us to failure." He poin ts out that tomorrow's CEO will have to "ini tiate change, not wait for it to happen."

Not only must business leaders initiate change, but response time will be "very critical in gaining and main taining a com­ petitive posi tion. " Haines explains: "Yo u have to get there firs t and fastest. "

How does a CEO lead his or her organi zation to change, to get there first and fas test? "You have to have a vision or direction fo r the en terp rise, you have to believe in that vision, and you have to drive that vi ion until it takes shape and happens," explains the appliance executive and fo rmer Bryant Studen t Senate president.

The CEO has to be "constantly exploring uncharted waters," notes Haines, to "identify those areas of oppo rtunity that are consistent \vi th the organization's bUSiness plan, then move forward and do it, because the fail ure to move forward qUickly means that you will have to foU ow somebody else." Quoting Rosabeth Moss Kan ter 'S6H, Haines says, Richard Haines '65 "Sometimes the competi tive advantage is a 15-minute head start." President, Maytag Company And the stakes are high in today's rapidly moving corporate environment. Haines poin ts out that a few years ago there were 20 app liance manufactu rers in the S, today "Workers need a greater sense of ownership in what there are five. Similarly, a smaU number of they're doing. These people have some fantastic ideas; large retailers now dominates the re tail appliance business. all we have to do is ask them."

Howard disagrees that every employee should be involved in setting the goals, but each one must know how he or she fits into the vision. "Employees will never see the big picture, that's the CEO's job," explains Howard. But, he says, "One of the CEO's most important qualities is to be able to find the right person for the job, and then make sure that person understands what his or her job is and what the goals are.
