“Like any other, our industry relies on networking. Thankfully, it’s a small

world and there are just six degrees of separation between each of us and any world leader. Consider that you are six handshakes away from Obama and

  • Putin. Your ideas and your actions can create a chain reaction that can influence
  • thers. Success lies in valuing your contacts and in growing your network.”

Agneta Rising, Director General World Nuclear Associations

Tab 1 – Results of Summer Institute Survey of 10 companies

“Although we are involved in uranium mining, the public often has broader nuclear questions that I am better able to answer now.” “Before my attendance I had very little understanding of how politics, economics, the environment and public speaking related to my work. This all changed at the Summer Institute.”

Global evaluation

“This was a one of a kind

  • experience. It was hard leaving

my family for six weeks but completely worth it. I grew so much by listening to the lectures, visiting other sites and by the day to day interactions with people from all over the world”
