Image CreditHere is a video I created for a #DrexelEdDCH5 project based on The Ten Faces of Innovation by Tom Kelley and Jonathan Littman. The goal of the project was to use a creative platform to:
Compare and contrast yourself to each of the faces. The result should be an analysis of which persona or personas are closest to both your current and projected personality as a creative leader. Using that analysis as a foundation, speculate on how you would:
- Lead a team through a creative problem solving process than considers divergent data, planning strategies, and views.
- Lead with a “mind to the future” that considers educational entity reform in light of global contexts and phenomenon.
- Influence the thinking and actions of others to carry out plans for reform.
You will notice a common theme where I discuss #edredesign vs. #edreform. As always feel free to add comments or provide feedback.

If you want to be an anthropologist start by reading these works:
Clifford Geertz: The Interpretation of Culture particularly the section on the Balinese cockfight.
James C. Scott: Seeing Like a State
For a real mind blower: Gerald Vizenor: The People Named the Chippewa.
And it wouldn’t hurt to do some participant observation.
You cannot just decide to wake up and be a type without deeply immersing yourself in the methods and literature of a field.
Hey David, thanks for the comment.
Are you familiar with these personas as described by Kelley and Littman?
This is the type of leader that I aspire to be as I continue on this journey.
