ContributorMark Twain said he never let his schooling interfere with his education. That sentiment feels especially relevant today. In an age when information access enables companies to blossom (or disappear) seemingly overnight, there’s more need than ever to re-examine our approaches to education. Does a university degree automatically open the doors it once did? Is trade school the best bet for many tech-savvy up-and-comers? What role do e-learning and tools like audiobooks and podcasts play in not only preparing people for the workplace but helping them keep pace with rapid change? These and many related questions are addressed in The Expertise Economy: How the Smartest Companies Use Learning to Engage, Compete and Succeed. Authors Kelly Palmer and David Blake represent a rising generation of smart disrupters who are making a mark in multiple industries.
