Summary

The buzz: “In the unknowable future, all leaders will need to be entrepreneurs: visionaries that can imagine, adapt, and act nimbly to address whatever challenges come their way.” (Bhatia and Levina, hbr.org) With global businesses impacted by Covid-19 and other disruptions, companies that survived are looking at their future workforce through a new lens. No more obey-the-status-quo hires. They need creative, entrepreneurial, collaborative problem-solvers to help them turn obstacles into positive results. Where to find them? In school! Since 1987, NY City-based nonprofit Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) has taught project-based entrepreneurship to 500,000+ under-resourced students, now in 18 U.S. states and 10 countries. Will these grads snag top jobs in the coming years? We’ll ask Dr. J.D. LaRock, Kyle Garman, Dr. Karina Edmonds, Srinivas Rapthadu and Dr. Malcolm Woodfield for their insights on Back to School: The Future of The Entrepreneurial Mindset and Technology.
