I am always focused on innovation. My current role is as an Innovation and Integrated Technology Coordinator at the University of Minnesota. I am the co-founder of the Horizon Forum, a PreK-17 round-table on the future of education; am co-principal of the Global Leapfrog Institute; and am a founding member of the Future Education Laboratory (a joint project between the University of Minnesota and FLACSO México).
I am concerned about human capital development as society approaches an increasingly complex and ambiguous future. Technological change drives social change and its impact is accelerating exponentially. Our schools, universities and other universities must leapfrog ahead of this curve for all people to compete in highly-globalized, knowledge- and innovation-based societies. My work focuses on exploring this New Paradigm, and the new approaches to leadership and human capital development required. My approach is global in scope, and I actively collaborate with colleagues in the United States, Latin America, China, and Central Europe.
