This week, some thoughts on education.
This post (a bit late) was inspired by a meeting at the Spirit of Flight Museum where Caroline “Blaze” Jensen spoke. In the audience were a group of young women, all interested in a career in aviation. But how to afford it? One young woman got into Embry Riddle. Would she be able to take advantage of this remarkable opportunity?
Here are three people with some innovative educational ideas.
This is the story that initiated this entire train of thought this week. Coming up soon on the podcast is Denise Thomas who raised over $200,000 for her children’s education. Denise’s book is a stunning resource for everyone looking at college funding. On Amazon.
“Story based coaching is proven brain science.” -Renaye Thornborrow
How about a personal development curriculum for kids?
Renaye uses stories to teach personal development and self awareness concepts to children, giving them the psychological strength and resiliency to move forward in life with self knowledge and confidence. Imagine how much easier all of our journeys might have been if we all had some of this basic wisdom!
What do you wish you’d known when you were young? What might have helped you navigate some bumps in the road?
Dr. Jennifer Nash is a business leadership consultant and author of “Be Human. Lead Human,” a guide for leaders who aspire to create more empathetic, connected, and high-performing teams. Jennifer’s framework provides actionable steps to develop relational skills that are vital for modern leadership.
Jennifer focuses on corporate education emphasizing that people need to be treated as people, not cogs in the corporate wheel of “progress”. Imagine what a difference it would make to be “seen” at work.
This week, make it a point to “see” others.
Have an awesome week!
