We've had a request to re-feature the radio show on the future of education with Andrew Kutt, Tal Birdsey and Laura Kang.  I'm delighted to do so! If you missed the show when it first ran, here's a refreshing view of education from three school heads who lead innovative schools with vision and pride.

Have you noticed our experiments with video yet? Lately, the Nebo team has been studying how to make our offerings livelier and easier to access. Thanks to Rachel Wold, we're having a blast learning how to share on camera, and we'd love your feedback.  In truth, we're most curious about YOU and how we can best help you to open up your full potential.  

Please write to us to share your feedback, ideas, challenges, hopes and wishes, and stay tuned for more opportunities to get involved with our mission to envision and manifest a better world through leadership that makes a difference.  We want very much to hear from you about what you'd love to experience from us. Our goal is to make that possible if we can.

Have a lovely weekend!

The Future of Education: 

Three Visionary Educators Share What Today's Kids Need Most from Education 

 

Laura Kang, Tal Birdsey and Andrew Kutt

When Andrew Kutt founded Oneness-Family School in Chevy Chase, MD, he imagined a place where children learned firsthand that the world is one family. North Branch School Founder Tal Birdsey wanted to build a school for middle school kids in Vermont's Green Mountains that celebrates the complexity and individuality of children at that often misunderstood age. Laura Kang stepped into the role of Head of School at Eagle Cove School on the Chesapeake Bay because she was drawn to its mission of academic excellence, joy in learning and stewardship of community and environment. These leaders share a common mission to instill joy, confidence and love of learning in students - the success of their schools gives testimony to the difference they are making. What can we learn from them about creating schools that educate the whole child? Join Host Kate Ebner to discover the passion, innovation and philosophies that underlie three powerful visions - and how to take these ideas into your community.

Where are your company's love letters? Sparking movements through word of mouth marketing with Robbin Phillips

 

  Robbin PhillipsThat's the question Robbin Phillips, Courageous President of the word-of-mouth and identity firm Brains on Fire, asks her clients when she begins working with a new organization. The follow up question is, "How do you celebrate your love letters?"

 

Love letters (also known as fan mail) show what it is that people value about their relationship with a brand or organization. Robbin's questions ("Where are your love letters? How do you celebrate them?") are great reminders for companies to take a breather from the intense focus on the process of developing a product or service and getting it to market and to take time to tell the stories of the people benefitting from their product.

These beautiful, hand-crafted pieces are customizable with initials, dates or important words. We are inspired by their "Words to Live By" Collection, featuring necklaces with phrases such as "Choose Joy," "Follow Your Bliss," and "Be Here Now" (Kate wears "Choose Joy" almost every day.) Sometimes we all need a closely held reminder of what's really important.
