Joining me for this episode is a highly-sought after speaker, trainer and coach Dr. Danny Brassell. Danny has spoken to over 3,000 audiences worldwide and authored 16 books, his latest being: Leadership Begins with Motivation. In addition to that, Danny is a huge advocate of reading and is a firm believe that reading plays a vital role in creating leaders and building the foundation to a successful life and career. As a thank you for listening to this episode, Danny would like to offer you a free e-copy of his book 'Read, Lead & Succeed', which can be accessed by clicking on the url provided: https://freegiftfromdanny.com/ In this episode, Danny and I tackle the reasons why student disengagement is becoming the norm rather than the exception. We also discuss some weaknesses in the current educational system that seems to be implemented worldwide that causes students to lose interest in the information they are receiving. Education, especially at a young age is critical for kids to explore who they are and what they want to be. Not to mention that education, according to Raymond Dalio - an American billionaire investor, a hedge fund manager at Bridgewater and the author of 'Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed and Fail', is one of the 8 key strengths that typically plays a crucial role in a country's rise and decline. Finally, we dive into the topic of reading where Danny teaches me, both directly and indirectly, the importance of reading for our personal and professional development.
