Inside Learning | Unlocking human potentialShow Notes
This month we welcome the author of "Education in the Digital Age: How We Get There", Nadav Zeimer. This episode discusses how students can become co-creators of their own curriculum, where the teacher moves from a sage on a stage to a mentor or a sherpa. We also look at how digital platforms are inverting our economy and what that means for the education system. Also featuring our guest contributor Peter Baxter of Createschool.

Cognitive flexibility is a top workplace skill, says the WEF. Waqas Ahmed, author of The Polymath, explains why outsourcing thinking to AI erodes it. Waqas defines cognitive flexibility as both the ability to shift between domains and a higher-order capacity to handle complex, ill-structured problems, and argues versatility, not agility, is the skill that survives accelerating change. He and Aidan McCullen trace how we built today’s silo culture, why transformation projects fail because of it, and the two polymath competencies he develops in organisations: versatility and integration. He also explains why current LLMs converge on safe, average answers, and how his Da Vinci AI project aims to provoke divergent, human-led creativity instead.
AI isn’t a tool — it’s a new kind of employee. Fiona Passantino explains why AI integration belongs to HR, not IT. Award-winning author of AI-Powered Leader and creator of the AI Integration Roadmap, Fiona makes the case that failed AI adoption is usually a training, governance, and leadership gap — not ”resistance.” With Aidan McCullen she covers mapping your adoption curve, baseline AI literacy and the EU AI Act, turning early adopters into a coaching centre of excellence, bringing ”hell no” holdouts over the line without splitting the organisation, phased L&D for departments and desk-less workers, and her ostrich-to-eagle roadmap for joyful, human-led AI.
