Education

Our educational system is in need of disruptive leadership, and it will take disruptive leaders who are able to lead change and influence a collaborative mindset. The shortage of talent in the workplace is a sign that education is not fulfilling this basic need. In countries rated the highest in education, businesses are complaining that candidates have the basic skills but lack critical thinking skills, communication skills, creativity, and the ability to handle ambiguity. Educators lecture on the importance of disruptive leadership and creativity, but fall short in providing the graduates ready for the current modern workforce. However, disruptive educators are starting to change the old norms of academia and disrupting the educational systems. Systems of silos are being replaced with collaboration based on disruptiveness, heightened creativity, divergent and critical thought, and decision-making. A new disruptive education is on the forefront. This chapter explores this.
