May 12th, 2017, at the MRU LAB auditorium, Prof. Ray Smith delivered a lecture on "Fusion Leadership."

Dr. Smith explained a new way of managing organisations that is based on fusion rather than fission.

Prof. Smith, an expert in organisational leadership issues, has a long history of teaching and lecturing not only in the U.S., but also abroad. He has also lectured at the Anglo-American University in the Czech Republic and is a member of the Fulbright specialists programme.

Discussion was moderated by consultant Dr. Rasa Katilienė, who also looked at how values have changed throughout history and how leadership looked then and now in present organisations.

During the lecture, Prof. Smith discussed the differences between traditional leadership, which was based on a split between leaders and underlings, and a new version of leadership which brings all forces together.
