  • The only way to get a good idea is by acquiring a threshold amount of domain expertise and focusing on skilling and equipping yourself to solve particular domain-specific problem

The Future of Education: The sharp Pivot

The Future of Education: The sharp Pivot

We prepared for a week for our first interview with an internationally acclaimed guest and they blew us off. It pissed us off but we reflected and tallied forward with this pop-up interview with one of my co-founders Mufaro Manzungu to discuss a subject of many of our debates "The Future of Education". After the conversation it dawned on me we should connect more to our roots and be the vulgar intellectuals that we truly are. We will be doing business differently from now on focusing on authenticity, but still bringing intellectual curiosity, data, and objective analysis. welcome folks to the birth of the unemployablez.
