  • “Our generation is passing along problems that feel intractable, depressing, like we’ve missed the off-ramp—just really intense problems that [today’s youth] generation is keenly aware they’re inheriting. They want to have hope; they want to know they can do something. They want to understand how to take action, how to plan for action. And that is the ending of every single curriculum that our youth design: some kind of action that youth can take.” Join our Chief of Programs and Learning, Sandra Joy Stein, on the What School Could Be podcast, where she shares powerful insights about her background, experience, the challenges in today’s education systems, and what we’re doing about them at Global Nomads Group.

    My TED talk has landed! I am deeply honored to share "The breakthrough power of young leaders." I hope you'll take a moment to watch the talk, and share your thoughts. My greatest hope is that you walk away feeling more optimistic about the future. If you're like me, you've been in countless conversations that are riddled with doom and gloom, as we look at the cynicism and division that envelops so many institutions. The leadership of young people gives me light. Time and time again, I have seen young people emerge as breakthrough catalysts of change. I'm not only riding that wave, I've been taking notes and striving to up my game. On that note, shoutouts to Jaylen Adams tatiana martinez alvarez and Sidney Griffin for allowing me to elevate their incredible stories. You are the leaders of now, and I'm honored to be your forever ally. My deepest gratitude goes out to my team of coaches and advisors for the talk: Emmanuel Nweke Desiree Martinez Ernie Sander Natasha Ushomirsky Andrés Hoyos-Gomez Ken Sterling, Esq., MBA Larnell Vickers Mika Jain MS Ed, MSSE If you're hungry for more inspiration from TED talks, look no further than the incredible crew of speakers who graced the stage on that fateful day in NYC: Matthew Ebert Saamra Mekuria-Grillo Randal Seriguchi, Jr. Bea R. Chezare A. Warren, Ph.D. Stacey A. Gibson Amber Cabral Tanishia Lavette Williams, Ph.D. Storybook M. I am truly the product of my inner circle. You inspire me, you push me, and you make sure that moments like these are both celebrated but not taken too seriously. My wife, my parents, my sisters, my brothers, you know who you are. #tedtalk #keynotespeaking #keynotespeaker #leadership #youthleadership https://lnkd.in/eiNPQsfW
