Ken Robinson shares new thinking on 'The Element' - the point at which natural talent meets personal passion.
The really big reboot is yet to come. But don't look for it on the stock exchange or the political ballot. It'll come from science labs, and it promises keener bodies and minds.

The Future of the Professions: How technology will transform the work of human experts.

Have too many passions to settle on just one? Perfect. Your unique mix of interests may turn out to be your very own super power. I was impressed when Martijn (my son) used this video to express his multipotentialism. Shortly after, Geert did the same :-)
In my career, I have learned that people are different. My own way of living, learning and growing follows a different path than that of others. But I have also learned that there are similarities.
After reading the great book: 'Business heroes' by Sandy Dunlop, I learned that there is a logic into the story of everybody's life. Especially the strict 'rythm' of that story has a recipe that can help you a lot to understand your own development path.
Other logic was found later on. When I met with Gareth Morgen ('Images of Organizations'), Henry Mintzberg ('We need managers - Not MBA's'), David Cooperrider ('Appreciative Inquiry') and Brian Hall ('Values'), I saw another logic into the recipe of growth.
A person can be described at different levels: passion, strengths, competencies, roles and values. Passion can be collected in several ways but an interesting one is offered by John Holland. Strength can be described using the logic of Jung (MBTI), competencies are often based on empirical studies, Roles on Belbin and Values on Hall-Tonna.
All five levels are bundles into SMRT.bio - the Total Talent platform.

In the twenty-first century, there will again be many revolutions in technology, in economics, in politics. But for the first time in history, humanity itself will also undergo a radical revolution. Not only our society and economy, but our bodies and minds will be transformed by new technologies such as genetic engineering, nanotechnology and brain-computer interfaces.
Ricardo Semler: Radical wisdom for a company, a school, a lifeWhat if your job didn’t control your life? Brazilian CEO Ricardo Semler practices a radical form of corporate democracy, rethinking everything from board meetings to how workers report their vacation days (they don’t have to). It’s a vision that rewards the wisdom of workers, promotes work-life balance — and leads to some deep insight on what work, and life, is really all about. Bonus question: What if schools were like this too?

Andrew Yang is an American entrepreneur, the founder of Venture for America, and a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate.
I love this video. Created by Dustin of Smarter Every Day. It turns out that the algorythm is based on 3 or 4 parameters only. We should study this and learn from it to create organizations to perate as a flock of birds. Play with the algorithm!!
Earlier this week I joined the Call to Unite - a 24 hour global live stream event where I shared my thoughts on how we can seize the opportunity to transform how we educate our children, and how we approach our relationship with the world we live in.
