Sir Ken Robinson


Why don't we get the best out of people?

Sir Ken Robinson argues that it's because we've been educated to become good workers, rather than creative thinkers. "We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says. It's a message with deep resonance. Robinson's TEDTalk has been distributed widely around the Web since its release in June 2006.

The most popular words framing blog posts on his talk? "Everyone should watch this."

I am currently reading his latest book, The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything, a deep look at human creativity and education, was published in January 2009.
