The skills people need are changing faster than the systems designed to develop them, and most responses add complexity rather than capacity. Drawing on a world-first national upskilling program and fresh research on AI in education, this talk offers three leadership shifts that set apart the systems which genuinely develop capability from those that merely simulate it. The question is not what we build, but how we lead.  Dr Christopher McCormick is an international education specialist with over 30 years of experience in developing global competence.
