Wanted: Entrepreneurs Who Can Ignite 550 Million Young Indian Minds - Navi Radjou - HarvardBusiness.org

Wanted: Entrepreneurs Who Can Ignite 550 Million Young Indian Minds - Navi Radjou - HarvardBusiness.org: "Hi Navi and all

It is definitely an interesting topic.

One of the biggest issues i think is the 'Educational System' by itself. We are following the Curriculum based on Age Old theories and youngsters are thrust with unwanted knowledge and forced to practice 'Rote learning'.

No one is taught about Fundamentals of Life
- Money Handling
- Parenting
- Relationship building (how to deal with families and friends)
- Team Work (in schools they encourage competition
and individualistic behaviour)
- Creating opportunities (selling/entrepreneurialship)
- Time management
- Keeping healthy
- Work/Life Balance
etc"
