We live in a time when one idea can change the world, but the truth is people are not getting access to the kind of learning that will develop their mindsets for a 21st century marketplace. Education is having a very difficult time bringing about meaningful change that can move students away from the more traditional and academic systems of 20th century education into a new and innovative model that is based in real-world skill building and mindset development.

The Future of education and Skills
We are facing unprecedented challenges – social, economic and environmental – driven by accelerating globalisation and a faster rate of technological developments. At the same time, those forces are providing us with myriad new opportunities for human advancement. The future is uncertain and we cannot predict it; but we need to be open and ready for it. The children entering education in 2018 will be young adults in 2030. Schools can prepare them for jobs that have not yet been created, for technologies that have not yet been invented, to solve problems that have not yet been anticipated. It will be a shared responsibility to seize opportunities and find solutions.

Guide: Understanding Team Dynamics
Much of the work done in organizations is done collaboratively by teams. It’s where real production happens, where innovative ideas are conceived and tested, and where employees experience most of their work. And it’s also where interpersonal issues, ill-suited skill sets, and unclear group goals can hinder productivity and cause friction.
In this report, Google researchers explore the secrets of effective teams at Google. Code-named Project Aristotle – a tribute to Aristotle’s quote, “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts” – the goal was to answer the question: “What makes a team effective at Google?”
