あらすじ・解説
Have you wondered if the education system is actually preparing the next generation to lead? Do you question whether *real* learning happens within the confines of a classroom? What if the very foundation of how we’ve been taught to think is broken? Matt Beaudreau is on a mission to rebuild the way we raise young people into impactful adults. Through his educational program, Apogee Strong, he’s empowering young people to break free from the limits of the traditional school system and become true leaders—starting with responsibility, character, and action. In this episode, we explore why real education isn't taught in classrooms and how Matt's approach is redefining what it means to be “ready for the real world.” KEY TOPICS How to break free from the conformity of the education system to create effective leaders. What we all need to unlearn from the broken school system we grew up in. The value of questioning authority, and what that looks like when done effectively. Why real-world experiences educate to a higher degree of success than a classroom ever will.
