Burnout is at an all-time high, resilience is at an all-time low, and our intolerance for uncertainty is at the heart of it all. But uncertainty has also been humanity's greatest driver of creativity and innovation, we just need to know how to use it and the Uncertainty Experts can show you how.
From smugglers turned trauma specialists to refugees turned CEOs to addicts turned activists, these are lessons learned in overcoming uncertainty taught in the shadows and applied to everyday life by people who will show you how to write your own rules, when you're already off the edge of the map.

The Learning Power Approach: Teaching Learners to Teach Themselves
There are two ways of getting good results. One runs the serious risk of inadvertently breeding disengagement, passivity, anxiety and dependency in students. The other gets even better grades, but also builds attitudes of resilience, independence, ambition and imagination. The latter is called the Learning Power Approach (LPA) and it works with all children and young people whatever their background or circumstances. But it requires teachers to inspect their own classroom habits, and maybe change some of them in specific ways. This can create anxiety and resistance, and certain qualities of school leadership are called for if the culture change process is to succeed.

Anyone Can Be a Superhero
Jamie McDonald’s (aka Adventureman) unique ability is to keep going, even when times are tough. In fact, since defying the odds to beat a debilitating childhood condition, he’s proved it beyond all doubt, twice breaking two of the toughest endurance World Records on the planet in the process. If that wasn’t enough he was named ‘Runner of the Year’, was the proud winner of Fundraiser of the Year at ‘Pride of Britain’ in 2019, as well as being a ‘National Adventure Award’ winner. Jamie will be sharing his story about how he beat those odds and how one headteacher helped shape his life.
