Episode 06: Pressure Testing the Meritocracy

In episode 6, Jacqui and Alison speak with Connie Liu, founder of Project Invent. Project Invent empowers students with the 21st-century skills to succeed individually and impact globally with the goal of “creating a generation of fearless problem solvers.” We unpack how Connie had her epiphany while attending MIT for Mechanical Engineering that designing a better world isn’t going to come from textbooks. We have to meet people where they are, give them the tools to think differently, empower them to be the change they want to see and change the face of the mirrortocracy.
