Ah, life, you’re a joker…

I ended up moving towards information technology, information systems and, later, management and strategy. And I became a teacher.

(un)Fortunately, this creative flame – which I call my rebellious teenage side – has remained alive and I ended up using a little bit of this flame in my work to this day – and I hope it stays that way.

Given this context, there is a TED Talk that eventually became my favorite one: I introduce you Sir Kenneth Robinson: Do schools kill creativity?

It is obvious that I want my children to go to university, to take those hard sciences diplomas, to be successful professionally and financially. But I also want them to be happy, healthy, to dance – and not to be a robot like their father – and to be creative, imaginative, dreamy.

It is not only a matter of rethinking schools, or teaching, but also it’s a matter of reflecting on what parents, teachers, families, students and society expect from these citizens in training.

To think about…
