GUEST COLUMN FRED VERBOON<br />

With mass consumerism, people will fi nd ways to stand out.<br />

Creativity is essential for the next generation. Creativity will fuel<br />

individualism which basically means that people are able to stand<br />

out and be successful.<br />

‘Application of knowledge is<br />

fundamental for success in<br />

tomorrow’s world’<br />

With all the information at arms’ length, education needs to change<br />

accordingly. Accumulation of knowledge is no longer the Holy Grail.<br />

Application of knowledge is fundamental for success in tomorrow’s<br />

world. Learn the new generations to stand out, teach them to succeed<br />

in a mass consumer world. Challenge them to compare, apply<br />

and differentiate. But most of all, learn them that is good to be<br />

different, learn them to stay close to themselves, stay close to their<br />

values and cultures. Do not lecture, but inspire! ■<br />
