Join Bryan Goodwin, a former business writer and high school teacher who now heads one of America’s leading education research and consulting firms, as he explores this uniquely human yet easily overlooked characteristic. Curiosity is the key to everything we treasure, and the best thing of all is that we’re all born with it—it just needs a little stirring up sometimes.
Learn how curiosity can be intentionally cultivated to:
- Avert calamitous boardroom decisions.
- Inspire innovative teaching and student learning.
- Spark more meaningful conversations and relationships.
- Generate higher levels of happiness.
- Regain civility in our civic and political worlds.
If you’ve ever wondered . . . anything, really . . . just out of curiosity . . . then you’ve got what it takes to lead in your profession, in your community, and in your life. Because you are definitely not out of curiosity.
