The Power of Raised Expectations
16/01/2012 Duração: 20minIn this wide-ranging and optimistic interview, Professor Lankes challenges us to raise our expectations--of ourselves, our colleagues, and of our institutions--to better serve our communities. He describes how fostering an environment where risk-taking and expectation of occasional failure (as opposed to mistakes) can better enable us to meet our challenges. He urges us to engage in lively conversations with the communities we serve and imagine what we could be instead of what we were. And of course he says this in a much more engaging, interesting, and eloquent way than this pitiful summary can depict. Listen and be inspired.
