The search for the likes of Faradays and Maxwells is deliberate. They are exemplars of what the human mind is capable of achieving. The world's thriving electrical and electronics industry, on which so much of the quality of our lives depends, is due to them. Michael Faraday (1791 –1867)) (who didn't know mathematics), towards the end of his career, gave to science the concept of electric and magnetic fields, and in 1865 James Maxwell (1831 – 1879) (who knew a great deal of mathematics) gave Faraday's abstract concept a compact mathematical embodiment (which awed Faraday). Thus was laid the foundation of a phenomenal industry and the harnessing of a force of Nature that has changed the face of human civilization. Alexander Graham Bell's patent on the telephone (perhaps the most important patent in history) came soon after in 1876. 
Amazingly, and with the benefit of hindsight, the common thread between Faraday and Maxwell was their ability to think and reason in abstract terms about the real world and eventually map them to measurable real world effects. Since the days of Galileo Galilei, modern science and mathematics have happily complemented each other by inventing and sharing concepts and ideas on a foundation of axiomatic reasoning. Modern mathematics is mainly deductive and essentially axiomatic, while modern science is mainly inductive and axiomatic to the extent it uses mathematics. The language of all advanced science (physics, in particular) is mathematics (which combines amazing symbolic brevity with reasoning). The ability of humans to frame and work with abstract concepts provide the vital link between mathematics and science.
What we do?
- We help people act with insight.
- We help companies grow from the inside.
- We help employees turn into thinkers.
We ignite thought
If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it. Its peculiar character, too, is that no one possesses the less, because every other possesses the whole of it. He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
