Skills gaps bedevil our economy.
But what are they and how did they form? This graphic illustrates how skill gaps emerged from an underperforming education system and a fragmented workforce development system.
How Does Education Attainment Impact Where People Rent?Ivan Kaufman
Did you know high school graduates residing in large properties earn 11% more than their small property peers. For residents with graduate degrees, the difference is much wider at 40%.
During the Emerging Leaders Seminar for Entrepreneurship & Innovation our group was tasked with developing an idea that would increase access and exposure to higher education for underserved communities. The following presentation was the solution we presented to Yale faculty.
A postsecondary degree is often held up as the one sure path to financial success. But is that true regardless of institutional quality, discipline studied, or individual characteristics? Is a college degree always worth the cost? Students deciding whether to invest in college and what field to study may be making the most important financial decision of their lives. The return to education varies greatly by institutional quality, discipline, and individual characteristics. Estimating the returns for as many options as possible, and making that information as transparent as possible, are paramount in helping prospective students make the best decision.

As colleges grapple with enrollment, retention, and completion difficulties, it’s clear that students need a better understanding of just how a college education can help them on the path to a solid career. Community colleges play a key role in solving this problem. When colleges use data to clearly demonstrate the connection between education and the labor market, students have the information they need to choose smart careers, select the education that is right for them, and then stick with that education to the end. In this webinar, Noah Brown, CEO of ACCT, and EMSI’s Gabriel Rench discuss how community colleges impact the economy, how they can demonstrate the ways they serve their students and communities, and how they can engage young people about career and education decisions before they hit college.
Frank F. Britt, CEO Penn Foster, addresses the nation's mega trends that is changing the face of education as we know it at the 2013 ASU/GSV Summit in Scottsdale, AZ.

Transforming the University January 2014Ed Morrison
Universities are facing major challenges, even upheaval. How can these institutions transform themselves? Traditional approaches to strategic planning don't work very well in the Academy. Strategic Doing presents an alternative.
Major research universities have three missions: teaching, research and engagement. This presentation makes the argument that engagement provides the lens through which to see how universities can transform.
Through engagement, universities can generate new flows of revenues to support both teaching and research. Engagement also provides new opportunities for research and more powerful learning experiences for students.

Brief Introduction to Strategic Doing May 2013Ed Morrison
This is a brief introduction to Strategic Doing, a new approach to developing and implementing strategy in open, loosely joined networks. Unlike strategic planning with is relatively slow and costly, strategic doing is a discipline which is fast, agile, and lean.
A newer version of this prevention was developed in January 2014.
Bob Brown of Michigan State University is using Strategic Doing to assemble a core team of leaders to redevelop devastated neighborhoods in Flint, MI. In this presentation, Bob provides background to this work and explains why Strategic Doing works. According to Bob:
"In neighborhoods besieged by complex, wicked problems, Strategic Doing creates hope through the power of taking action with the assets or gifts that we already possess. In that moment when we combine assets we begin to tell a new story of opportunity and possibility. Strategic Doing gives us
the power to change our lives, our neighborhoods, and our communities."
Strategic Doing: A New Discipline December 2013Ed Morrison
This presentation introduced Strategic Doing to the Australia New Zealand Regional Science Association. President of the Association, Paul Collits, invited me to make this presentation after he had studied our work.
In his keynote address to the meeting, Paul noted, "Local economic development is the identification of local assets for growth and leveraging them through collaboration. The best methodology I have seen in twenty years for achieving this is called Strategic Doing."

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

1. Anatomy of the Skills Gap
Investments in pre-school pay
predictable dividends, but few
regions make the investment.
Between 40% and 50% of
graduates from high school are
unprepared for college or work.
They enter entry level jobs. If
they get stuck, they become the
working poor.
Too few young people going on to post-secondary training. This
shortage will only get worse as the Baby Boom retires. We have
shortages in a wide range of Middle Skill jobs requiring some
post-secondary training but less than 4 years of college.
People being

Certifications
Nationwide, 30% of 9th
graders drop out of school.
Drop-outs tend to end up in
a dependency cycle.

We do not have a

career pathways.

The cost of moving people
from dependency to the

The working poor have
no easy way to upgrade
their skills.
Summary: We are producing too many under-skilled
people. In any regional economy, 70% to 80% of the jobs
are career jobs, paying above $10 per hour.Yet, we are
producing over 50% of young people without the skills for
these jobs. Adults need more flexible options to upgrade
their skills continuously.
