Read Amy Armstrongs story on page 16. On page 21, our reporter Judy Magness, profiles companies all over the country making incredible advances. Take a look at Functional Medicine and the driving breakthroughs in breast cancer while looking at conventional and alternative healthcare approaches. In addition, we featured Scott Petinga, Chairman and CEO of The Scott Petinga Group. The article looks at the 7 business lessons learned from Cancer and his views on the way people commit to change, on page 14. Outside of Health, we look into the problems of climate change. How New York City has embarked on an aggressive plan to curb the predicted impacts of global warming. In the end, as the clock winds down on 2014, we look forward to another year shaped with change and innovation in health and technology. It’s quite an issue. Take some time to read and learn from great innovators, entrepreneurs, and experts from around the country. And as always we invite you to visit our website at www.thesuitmagazine.com and let us know what you think. Best, Erwin Kantor Erwin Kantor, Publisher
