A short spoken segment from Arun Gupta arguing that future public-sector leaders need an entrepreneurial mindset — the ability to test, learn, and experiment rapidly — because long-range planning (e.g., five-year plans) is inadequate in a world changing quickly across technological, geopolitical, social, and environmental dimensions.
When we think about inspiring this next generation of leaders, we think about really needing an entrepreneurial mindset. And that means in a world that's changing so rapidly, technologically, geopolitically, socially, environmentally, you can't just plan and come up with a five year plan for and teach them how to do that. What you need to be teaching them is the skills to be able to test and learn quickly and experiment very quickly.
