What if schools were more like Google and Starbucks?

Shared from Zite

Yes, there is so much we can learn by personalizing our work and knowing the people we are working with - the students. Know them as people, and it's a lot easier and more fun to teach them.

Recently, I was blessed with the opportunity to hear Eric Sheninger speak about digital leadership at a workshop in Kansas City. It was, of course, a great day of inspiration and information. At one point in his talk, Eric commented that schools should "be more like Google and Starbucks." This idea got me curious about ways education could benefit from being more like these companies, and others like them that are innovating and creating value in extraordinary ways.
