Within education, passionate entrepreneurs & committed citizens are no longer waiting for these broken formal institutions to be reformed. All over the world, they're designing & building their own local responses with relationships at their core. These are the education ecosystems that our young people need and out of which new institutions will emerge. This podcast is an inquiry into these fundamental changes and an invitation to join the movement to help nurture positive change.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T22:20:50.236579+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/future-learning-design-podcast-2962232"},"episode":{"title":"Taming the Turbulence in Educational Leadership - A Conversation with Jennifer D.

But particularly now, with so much shifting, high levels of uncertainty, and polarising issues at play, it’s arguably an even rougher sea to navigate. In such a context, my guest this week has done an amazing job of gathering vital insights from 67 amazing education leaders around the world, herself included, to bring some collective wisdom to bear on the subject.
