The Education System's Failure to Encourage Lifelong Learning in the US

In this video, we explore the state of the public school system in the US and its impact on fostering a culture of lifelong learning. From a cultural standpoint, many individuals simply want to complete their education and move on to the next stage of their lives. However, this attitude towards education has led to concerning statistics on adult reading habits and a lack of motivation to continue learning and developing skills. As a result, many companies struggle to find employees who take their professional development seriously. Join us as we discuss the importance of lifelong learning and how the education system can better prepare individuals for a future of personal and professional growth.

ABOUT CONTACT CENTER JOURNEYS
The intent of Contact Center Journeys (Formerly Origins and Journeys) is to inspire the next generation of contact center and CX professionals to find their path within our industry. The best way to do this, in our opinion, is to share the stories of inspiring people who have come up through many different paths. These individuals found a path to how they define success and now are willing to share it with all of us.

We also felt it was critical to bring more value than just the origin stories of ourselves and our guests since we already have your attention. So, we keep our guests on longer and spend time after the origin story in every episode to discuss pertinent topics and insights that impact our industry.

We hope you find as much value from Contact Center Journeys as we do in sharing these stories and discussions with you.
