The question ”what do you want to be when you grow up?” is no longer serving young people. For too long, we’ve encouraged them to prepare for their future by choosing a job title. This approach is causing anxiety and not preparing them for a complex future. Parents and educators can change the world by helping young people look beyond job titles to find important challenges to solve. This new approach is called the challenge mindset, and it is igniting a sense of purpose in youth. Come discover the difference it can make to the young people in your lives.
