Future Skills Roundtable #5: Collaboration

Please reserve your spot: https://bit.ly/PSAFSR6

To be able to adapt constantly, learn new skills, meet and overcome challenges, and work collaboratively, young people need to develop social and emotional foundations.

These capacities are vital for young people to develop so they can apply transformative competencies such as reconciling tensions and dilemmas; taking responsibility to promote the health, social and emotional well-being of themselves and others; and interalize moral and pro-social principles and self-regulatory skills.

Beyond a foundational level, what does Collaboration look like when applied in modern society across organizations and industries, especially when building towards a shared vision?

To cap off our Future Skills Roundtables, Press Start Academy has invited two cross-sector leaders who embody Collaboration in their day-to-day, mission-driven work:

• Tracy Chan, Executive Director, Ednovators
• Cintia Nunes, Director, The Mills Fabrica

Join our Founder and CEO Vince Siu to celebrate the end of our most ambitious content series yet - by learning not only about the importance of developing and applying Collaboration skills on an organizational level, but also how all the previous 21st-century skills we've covered - Character, Communication, Critical Thinking, Citizenship and Creativity - contribute to this most powerful skill: the ability to bring people together.

About the Future Skills Roundtables

The Future Skills Roundtables is an online discussion series curated and hosted by Press Start Academy, aiming to gather passionate entrepreneurs and talented young leaders to exchange insights on 21st-century skills and how they've used them throughout their careers.

Each Roundtable is themed around one of the 6Cs of 21st-century skills - Creativity, Communication, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Citizenship and Character - and features three guests who have built their successes around exemplifying these skills.

Through these conversations, we will be unpacking the importance of skill-based learning and a well-rounded whole-person education. We hope students, parents and educators alike will join us for a series of interesting, inspiring and important roundtables!
