We need change agents to
illuminate the way
into the future!
We need more people willing to
step outside of expectations
because our world is changing
exponentially, and if all we do is
meet expectations and the status
quo - we will fall behind as
organisations, as teams, and as
societies.

The skills for 2030
Nesta, Pearson and the Martin Oxford School: The future of skills: employment in 2030
Judgment and decision
making: Considering the
relative costs and benefits of
potential actions to choose
the most appropriate one.
Active learning: Learning
strategies—selecting and
using training/instructional
methods and procedures
appropriate for the situation
when learning or teaching
new things.
Originality: The ability
to come up with unusual
or clever ideas about a
given topic or situation, or
to develop creative ways
to solve a problem
Learning strategies:
Understanding the
implications of new
information for both current
and future problem-solving
and decision-making.
Graphics by @scriberian
Fluency of ideas: The
ability to come up with a
number of ideas about a
topic (the number of ideas
is important, not their
quality, correctness, or
creativity).

21. #S4CA @Sch4Change
Horizontal development:
• Adding more knowledge, skills, and
competencies
• It’s about what I know
• Transmitted through experts
Vertical development:
• Ability to think in more complex, systemic,
strategic and interdependent ways
• It’s about how I think
• Learnt through experience
In the era of disruption, we need to
focus on vertical development for
change agents as well as horizontal

People:
• will avoid work if they can
• resist change
• are constantly in need of a
good prod
• prefer to be directed
As a result, leaders must
closely control and use carrots
and sticks to motivate people to
achieve their objectives
Theory
X
Theory
Y
People:
• want to do great work
• seek responsibility
• are vital change agents
• are capable of solving
problems and directing their
own work
As a result, leaders should
concentrate on fulfilling the
potential of every worker
and giving them
opportunities to participate
