A Manifesto for Change
Education is the single most important factor that will determine the future; for our children, our economy, society and ultimately our planet. Richard Gerver uses his unique, authentic and experience driven insights, to clarify the vision, thinking and processes that we must all go through, if we are to ensure that we all; teachers, administrators, parents and policy makers, develop a system that prepares our young people for a world class future. Gerver uses his experiences as a former award winning teacher, globally renowned principal, school and university board member and government policy advisor, to mesh together, with clarity and deep insight, exactly what needs to be discussed and done; from high level strategy to classroom practice. He not only brings his reputation as one of the world’s most innovative and successful educators to his sessions but is uniquely able to bridge the connections between education, business, sport and culture, thanks to his ground breaking work in those fields; having worked with Olympic coaches, EPL Teams and Golf pros, as well as with some of the globe’s biggest companies and extensively in the music industry. Gerver is able to speak with precision about exactly what skills, behaviours and attributes our children will need to not only survive but thrive in their futures. His education speeches are noted world-wide for their humour, insight, provocations and practical application. They mirror his two best-selling books on education. Creating Tomorrow’s Schools Today and Education: A Manifesto for Change.
The Sense in Purpose
What do people and organisations that have enjoyed sustained success have in common? A sense of purpose; one driven by a collegiate sense of mission, of value, of passion and of possibility. In this inspirational session, Richard will share his insights and experiences around how to develop, transmit and nurture a powerful sense of purpose that impacts on resilience, collaboration, innovation and outcomes. Richard will explore the importance of communication, skills development, leadership and empowerment on developing a genuine sense of purpose that can have a dynamic and long-lasting impact on you, your business and your long-term sense of value.
Legacy; Developing Future Leaders
Success cannot be measured in the short term; real success comes from long term impact and must be resilient enough to not only survive but thrive in changing times. One of Richard’s most important mantras is that systems and structures change nothing, people do. In this provocative session, Richard will explore not only the vital importance of skilled leadership in the now but how to identify and nurture great leaders for tomorrow. He will identify strategies that encourage leadership throughout an organisation and at every level. He will urge people to remember that great leadership is not about control but about identifying and developing the talent in others; by serving the people who work with you and for you and by so doing, developing a sense of corporate responsibility and value that in turn, encourages the youngest and most junior, to levels of confidence, value and loyalty that will ensure a dynamic sense of legacy.
