'Being a specialist won't be enough' with university founder Ed Fidoe
Listen now
Description
"It's not acceptable for a CEO to simply say, 'Well, I don't do marketing,'" says Ed Fidoe. That's why he is leading at a groundbreaking university aimed at cultivating well-rounded leaders. Fidoe is one of the minds behind the UK's first new university with degree-granting powers since the 1960s—the London Interdisciplinary School (LIS). He argues that specialising alone will fall short in a world grappling with intricate challenges like climate change and AI; instead, one must embrace interdisciplinary skills.
