For most of the last century, entry-level jobs were plentiful, and college was an affordable path to a fulfilling career. That world no longer exists. The documentary Most Likely to Succeed, examines the history of education, revealing the growing shortcomings of our school model and offers a plan to empower our children to succeed in our increasingly demanding and innovative 21st century world.

Speak To Me has teamed up with local schools and businesses to screen this thought provoking film this Fall as they dive into the paradigm shift in education this season. Additional film screenings and speaker events will feature some of the world’s top thought leaders discussing what it takes to be successful in the 21st century and beyond.
