Leonardo da Vinci is our corporate theme because:

  • da Vinci was the supreme example of Renaissance genius
  • Great research is the blend of creative and technical expertise
  • da Vinci’s thinking is inherent in all our work
  • We named our street da Vinci Court


 
These da Vinci principles1 are indicative of a good researcher:

 

Curiosità: An insatiably curious approach to life and an unrelenting quest for continuous learning.

 

Dimostrazione: A commitment to test knowledge through experience, persistence, and a willingness to learn from mistakes.

 

Sensazione: The continual refinement of the senses, especially sight, as means to enliven experience.

 

Sfumato: A willingness to embrace ambiguity, paradox, and uncertainty.

 

Arte/Scienza: The development of the balance between science and art, logic and imagination.  "Whole-brain" thinking.

 

Corporalita: The cultivation of grace, ambidexterity, fitness, and poise.

 

Connessione: A recognition of and appreciation for the interconnectedness of all things and phenomena.  Systems thinking.
