#5 Margret Rasfeld & Jamila Tressel - Schools of Transformation (Part 2‪)‬ Benefits of System Thinking

Margret Rasfeld is a former headmaster of a school but is now retired, but that doesn’t stop her from helping organizations and people around the world to pursue change in the educational system world wide. 

Margret invited me to her home for a conversation with her and a former student of hers - Jamila Tressel that have joined her on many of her speaking gigs around the world to help Margret communicate the impact that her type of schools are giving the students. 

Margret became a teacher in 1977 but in 1996 she decided to become a headmaster of a new school because she felt that as a headmaster, she could make so much more impact. According to the UNESCO-report called “Schools for 21st century”, it seems that 50% of the students in the schools today are not getting the tools to unlock their full potential - a change is needed!

Margret have written books on how she - as a headmaster - have builded a school that unlocks the potential for the students and that book have been translated in several languages. 

It was such a fun and interesting conversation that we had and I think you will enjoy it!
