Tapping into Oklahoma’s Wealth of Creativity (Apr 07, 2008)
Oklahoma’s one hundredth birthday has come and gone and the centennial celebrations have ended, so now what? As the state enters its second century, business and political leaders are looking to the future and trying to figure out how to use the strengths and ingenuity they say already exist in Oklahoma to put it ahead of the curve in commerce, culture and education.
