title: High-tech's low-key brothers.
abstract: Their personal demeanor is decidedly modest, their corporate culture nurturing and family-oriented. But don't let that charming Midwestern manner fool you: as many health care organizations know, Bill and Richard Lawson are major players in the world of ERP software, and they are poised for even bigger things. Next year they intend to take Minneapolis-based Lawson Software public, a move they hope will give them the capital and clout to go head to head with the giants of the industry and eventually become one of the top two or three players in the world.
