Friday Fireside Chat with Rita McGrath and Paul LeBlanc

Paul J. LeBlanc is one of my personal heroes. As President of Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) he did what many said was impossible – he took back on-line education from predatory for-profit schools and made it possible for tens of thousands of students to graduate and seize opportunities. He’s also the author of a wonderful, hopeful and human new book “Broken: How Our Social Systems are Failing Us and How We can Fix Them.” It’s a very human read, infused with the wisdom of Paul’s many years of experience and with his humility as a leader. He shows us that we needn’t despair of our messed up social systems but rather can each participate in making them better.
