IH048 - The Reinvention Mandate with Julie Jungalwala

Julie Jungalwala is the Co-Founder and President of the Academic Leadership Group, supporting deans, senior administrators, and faculties as they design and develop their organization’s and people’s capabilities. She is also the Founder and Executive Director of the Institute for the Future of Learning and an Instructor in authentic leadership as part of the Harvard Extension School’s Essential Management Skills for Emerging Leaders professional development program. Julie has a Master’s in Education, Technology, Innovation, and Education from Harvard University Graduate School of Education, a Bachelor’s in Business Administration, and French from Queen’s University Belfast. She is also a volunteer for the Big Sister Association of Greater Boston.

Julie joins me today to share how her reinvention mandate initiative is discovering insights into understanding our development system at a corporate and educational level. We discuss what it takes at a human level to reskill and upskill and build a life accordingly. She explores the notion of what we want in life in terms of meaning, feeling, and aspiration and what reinvention means for talent recruitment, engagement, and retention. We discuss how learning should continue throughout life, not just to hold a job but also to achieve levels of satisfaction, caring, and fulfillment. Julie shares why it is essential to have faith in your dreams and embrace the unknown. She also reveals how current systems are built to be immune to change and self-perpetuating, making it impossible for educators to transform it and creating a need for people and professionals outside of the system to build a parallel path.

“Every single child has a potential and unique set of skills, knowledge, mindsets to be cultivated not in accordance with some standardized model but according to the child.” - Julie Jungalwala
