How do we reimagine schools and use this interruption to our lives to create a better normal post-pandemic?

My guest in this episode is Dan Heath, a New York Times bestselling author of 5 books, the most recent being \\u201cUpstream: The Quest to Solve Problems Before They Happen.\\u201d This book is a MUST read for anyone who\\u2019s curious about how to create systemic change or how to improve our daily lives through pro-active problem-solving.

Dan explains why we spend more time and resources fixing problems than preventing them. He gives concrete examples of people and organizations that have gone \\u201cupstream\\u201d to identify what\\u2019s creating havoc and fix things there, BEFORE the problems come to them downstream.

We have an unprecedented opportunity right now for change in many areas: healthcare, the economy, the environment, and so on. Every part of our lives and society have been touched, and will be changed ... and it\\u2019s up to us to envision a better \\u201cnew normal.\\u201d

If you loved EP192 on reimagining schools and want more inspiration for how to move forward, I think you\\u2019ll find this episode fascinating.
