"I think Vanguard is an Enterpriser and I think I am an enabler for that. The reality is I can't imagine a business leader today being part of an executive team and not being technology savvy. You have to be. You have to understand what technology can do. And that's why I think creating opportunities for IT and business leaders to figure out how to learn each other's disciplines and really understand technology as a business leader, really understand what it can enable. I think that's the key to being an Enterpriser. It's the organization, not the individual."
