  9. The Partnership for 21st Century SkillsValidated that the Public Recognizes the Skills Gap

  10. “How” we need to work must change. • We have to support each other in this work. • Collins says, “get the right people on the bus!” • You must build up to breakthrough. • Good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgment.

  11. Goldcorp Inc. • Rob McEwen CEO, no experience • 50 year old gold mine, Red Lake Ontario • Without substantial new gold “close” • Find more gold on this property “staff believes he is now crazy” • No one leaves until we have a plan… • Few weeks later remarkable discovery “30” times the amount they were currently mining

  12. Goldcorp Inc • 1999 Rob attends a conference at MIT about Linux OS and learns about “Open Source” • Decides to make all data (1949) open to the public • Ask the world to help us find more gold • 2000 Goldcorp Challenge $575,000. • 2 weeks, over 1,000 ideas, 80% yield gold • $100m business to a $9 billion!!!!!

  13. Think Different Clip

  14. “Leadership is action, not position.” Donald H. McGannon

  15. The primary aim of education is not to enable students to do well in schools or colleges, but to help them do well in the lives they lead outside of the schools and colleges.

  16. We’ve created false proxies for learning… • Finishing a course or textbook has come to mean achievement • Listening to lecture has come to mean understanding • Getting a high score on a standardized test has come to mean proficiency

  17. Learning should have its roots in.. • Meaning, not just memory • Engagement, not simply transmission • Inquiry, not only compliance • Exploration, not just acquisition • Personalization, not simply uniformity • Collaboration, not only competition • Trust, not fear

  18. Jim Collins, Good to Great 2001, p.205 “I am not suggesting that going from good to great is easy….. I am asserting that those who strive to turn good into great find the process no more painful or exhausting than those who settle for just letting things wallow along in mind numbing mediocrity.”

  19. So why did you come to this conference? How will what you learn here change what you do at your school or college?
