YOUR ADAPTABLE MIND



Yesterday, Mr MacPherson shared a video called "The Adaptable Mind" to trigger discussion about the traits you will need to be successful in the future. If you want to re-watch the video, the link is here.

The narrator pointed out that for the majority of human history mankind has had an agricultural economy. Then, about 200 years ago, this changed to an industrial economy. Within your parents' lifetime mankind has moved to a knowledge economy, but the question is... What's next for you?

Your future will lie within a HUMAN ECONOMY. Machines are doing the labour and managing the information, but unlike what Hollywood films suggest, they cannot manage on their own. The five personality traits listed to the left are human characteristics that are essential in order to address the social, economic and environmental challenges that lie ahead.



YOUR BLOG RESPONSE

Write a brief self-analysis that includes examples to demonstrate which of these traits you have already developed and explain how you plan to continue your personal growth in the future.

To be completed by Sunday, October 11.
