The poverty dilemma You Can Never Cure Poverty: A Multifaceted Perspective Poverty: A Subjective Lens The renowned economist Milton Friedman once succinctly stated, "You never can cure poverty. Poverty is in the eye of the beholder."1 This seemingly paradoxical assertion invites us to explore the multifaceted nature of poverty and its perception. The Measurement Dilemma Income alone doesn’t capture the full picture of well-being. As Friedman pointed out, consumption matters just as much—if not more—than income. Consider this: while wage disparities have widened, access to basic amenities (like dishwashers, sewing machines, and televisions) has become more equal across households. In terms of consumption, the gap narrows, challenging the conventional narrative of increasing inequality. Leadership Management and Poverty Alleviation Effective leadership plays a pivotal role in addressing poverty. Here are some key considerations: Vision and Strategy: Leaders must envision a poverty-free society and develop comprehensive strategies. These strategies should encompass education, healthcare, employment, and social safety nets. A clear roadmap ensures coordinated efforts toward poverty reduction. Inclusive Policies: Leaders should advocate for policies that empower marginalized communities. These policies might include targeted subsidies, vocational training, and microfinance initiatives. By fostering inclusivity, leaders can create pathways out of poverty. Collaboration: Poverty eradication requires collaboration across sectors. Governments, NGOs, businesses, and academia must work together. Leaders who foster partnerships amplify their impact. Data-Driven Decision-Making: Here, artificial intelligence (AI) enters the scene. AI algorithms can analyze vast datasets, identifying patterns and predicting outcomes. For instance: Predictive Analytics: AI can forecast poverty trends, helping leaders allocate resources effectively. Financial Inclusion: AI-powered credit scoring models enable financial institutions to serve the unbanked and underbanked. Healthcare Optimization: AI assists in disease detection, drug discovery, and healthcare delivery. The Role of AI in Poverty Alleviation Artificial intelligence isn’t a panacea, but it offers promising avenues: Precision Targeting: AI algorithms can identify vulnerable populations more accurately. Whether it’s identifying malnourished children or predicting crop failures, precision matters. Job Creation: AI-driven industries (such as data science, robotics, and cybersecurity) create jobs. Leaders can encourage skill development in these areas. Education Access: AI-powered personalized learning platforms can bridge educational gaps. Imagine an AI tutor adapting to each student’s pace and learning style. Social Safety Nets: AI can optimize social welfare programs, ensuring benefits reach those who need them most.

When was the last time you saw a real lion? Standing in front of you. It doesn't matter how many times you do. The chill of what stands before you, a predator with the strength and majesty, the power and the pure wilderness in his eyes can stop a heart in an instant. Carrick's "totem", Carrick's "spirit animal", Carrick's identity is built on the king of the African savannah. From time immemorial, lions have always depicted strength, skill, protection and strategy. We went back in history, through the ages of mankind, through many cultures and many nations and found that in days of old, legend has it that lion statues were built at ports and at the entrances to cities as a symbol of majesty and awe to ‘protect’ their health, wealth and honour. Fast forward seven centuries and we look to a new kind of vanguard; one of financial destiny, capital investment, growth and preservation. The cornerstone of Carrick's success is to serve as your vanguard. This is the significance of our vanguard lion; protecting and preserving growth.  We took it one step further, when Carrick Catalyst was born; we aspired to more than your average wealth advisory firm. We had a wildly important goal... to be a #catalyst in the very essence of the word. To #change the world, one legacy at a time.   We serve a special kind of client. One who is different. One who is driven by an other worldly force with a need to thrive, to reach the highest heights, be it the moon or Everest. Here’s to the ones who think they can change the world. Because those are the ones who do. Our favourite world-changers: Craig Featherby, Mike Fannin, Marc Fancy, Bryan Austen, Anthony Palmer, Rashay Makan, Steve Flynn, Jeet Foolessur, Jarryd Jacklin, Nirish Beeharry, Angela McGreal, Yonela Maholwana, Melisa Geldenhuys, Reema Gangaram, Nazreen Harper, Kelly Daniels, Carmen Gribble, Cheryl-Lynne Werner, Tumiso Komane, Tasmin Jolley, Delon Fourie, Mike Preston, Dave Charnley (DipFA), Twape Mtila, Selven Valleeamah, Emma Vaitilingon, Christi Elkins, Craig J Hankwebe, Vanessa Seechurn, Shaun Nkwazi, Nkemdilim Odinkalu LLB, Yamikani Kamoto, Tracy To, Renée Mostert

What a joy to not only be talking about #EdTech but something which at my core is why i became an educator #STEAM If you have The National College you can get hold of further information & resources via my webinars about the importance of #STEAM why it has a “A” and how it's all about holistic learning! 🙌🏼Fun fact🙌🏼 Interdisciplinary learning was developed in the early 20th century where the agricultural and industrial arts movements of the time recognised the need to prepare students for practical applications beyond the traditional academic curriculum. This led to the development of experiential learning approaches that emphasised hands-on activities and problem-solving skills. 👔We are now at an era of the “no collar worker” where we need to be creative, critical, problem solvers, hands on and a jack of all trades… in addition STEAM jobs by 2030 will make up 80% of jobs in the UK due to the #Sustainability requirements of the world. How do you teach and inspire STEAM learning and interdisciplinary learning?
