Here’s the thing that still puzzles me: We all know entrepreneurship drives innovation, creates jobs, and fuels economies. We know that. But, it's still not a core part of how we educate, how we train, how we think about the future of learning and work.
Today’s guest is Jonathan Ortmans, who is, in my opinion, one of the loudest, clearest voices pushing to change that.
As the founder of the Global Entrepreneurship Network, he is one of the few true global thinkers, leaders, and doers when it comes to promoting entrepreneurship as a means of both economic and human development.
And it all started as a result of his own entrepreneurial journey. After starting and exiting several companies, he recognized the need to encourage and support entrepreneurship as a means of “economic gardening.” And, as an entrepreneur, he decided to do something about it.
In this episode, we talk about ecosystems, policy, culture, and most importantly—how we activate the potential in ordinary people to solve problems and create value.
