Anu Passi-Rauste and the future-proof skills

Anu Passi-Rauste is an educator, a tech innovator and, in her words, an advocate for Finland's educational system. She is director of business development at HeadAI, a company developing AI for talent growth and learning to build a sustainable future ecosystem for skills and work.

In this episode we talk about being the happiest people in the world, education as a distributed network and how algorithms can help us decide what to learn next.

I really enjoyed talking to Anu and I hope you will enjoy the conversation too.

Key take aways

1. Happiness may not be the goal, but the consequence of pursuing noble values. It requires building blocks.
2. Education in Finland is a distributed network. Teachers are nodes. To scale up education you need to value education, teachers and trust.
3. We need to democratize access to re-skilling because there is a billion people looking for jobs.
4. The pandemic thought us that is not about location. You can act globally while stuck at home.
5. You cannot remain the same. Machines can help you adapt your 'playlist' quickly to the changes in a dynamic world.
6. We need to be ready to pay to use the algorithm in order to require transparency about code and data sources
