frequently asked questions

► Does talent exist?

We know that talent exists because people vary in ability. Ability isn't innate because it takes time to develop it. The willingness to spend time is based on our innate interest and intelligence. Interest + Intelligence = Talent. Talent + Time = Ability.

► Why is talent important?

Talent is what propels society forward, so we should find individuals who have talent and support them. If there isn't a consensus on prioritizing talent, society won't create the necessary conditions for talent to thrive, and we won't have innovation. Talent has the potential to grow into value, but only if society recognizes it and encourages it.

► Does scholarship recognize value?

Recognizing talent requires ability because talent isn't always apparent, especially early on. Experts are capable of recognizing talent before it has proven itself. Time is the ultimate judge of value, which is why scholarship compiles references over time. Scholarship determines what has staying power based on statistically-proven experts who can look ahead.

► Where does innovation occur?

People vary in ability, just as countries vary in quality of life. Innovation isn't a given, which is why when it occurs, we call it history and we study it. Civilizations that have found the winning formula create incredible innovation.
