Growing up at Master’s I have learned the value of creating relationships with everyone who is around me, including teachers. The strong bonds I have formed with my peers are ones I hope to have for a lifetime…The necessity of creating a strong social network, along with the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, have framed my approach to the Impact Project.
[Experts] state that the current model of education is broken. We at Master’s agree. But we’re not just here to talk about it, to hold TED Talks about it, to simply state the obvious. No. We’re here to change it.
Avenue Magazine’s Top 40 Under 40 is an annual awards event honouring those who are positvely impacting Calgary, Alberta.
The 2020 Calgary Leadership Prayer Breakfast was held this October for the 52nd straight year and had over 1000 devices (including several groups) accessing the event online.
Through our local and international work we have learned a lot about innovation and collaboration within competitive corporate environments and have brought those insights to the framing of our College Imaginal Program.
The impact project is one aspect of our programming that aims to develop future ready skills and to help students begin to pursue their personal vision. As one 2020 Master’s graduate observed, none of them could have predicted that they would need to exercise these skills graduating during a global pandemic.
The rise of artificial intelligence is creating a serious rift between skills that are valuable and relevant and skills that simply aren’t. What we’re seeing is the hard skills are becoming soft and the soft skills are becoming hard.
We sit and read the news and wonder where this whole thing is going. What will happen to my job? What will happen to our city? Will things ever get back to normal? Meantime some big changes are quietly being implemented…We are in the throes of a major geo-political and socio-economic shift that has been coming for a number of years.
It is clear that something special is happening at Master’s. Student engagement is high, teachers are actively engaged in learning and the culture of leadership development is thriving. Even as we were forced to transition to an online learning situation, we saw student after student step up to help with creating our new online community.
I have found that courage is linked to your centre and Big WHY. …whatever is at the centre will be your source of security, guidance, wisdom, and power. It’s what gives you your sense of worth, your direction, your ability to make decisions and your capacity to act.
At the heart of who we are, is our Big WHY, which answers the question of why does Master’s even exist and why do we do what we do? It is easy to describe what we do and how we do it as a leading academic institution in Alberta, but to understand “why” we must go to a deeper level of insight.
Brian Patterson is a model of an Imaginal Leader. In the midst of selling stock photos, he found a love, a passion, for capturing the human form through the medium of photography. He started with a small camera, and through hard work, creativity, and his knack for connecting with others, he has pursued his vision without limitation.
Welcome back to all our parents, students and faculty, especially, those families who are new to Master’s. We trust that your decision to choose Master’s will be rewarded with an outstanding experience in our school.
I have met some amazing people in the past (like the time I met Paulo Coelho in Davos, Switzerland—now that’s a different post!),
It’s been said that Master’s is one of the best-kept secrets. But did you know that there’s an even bigger
So what are we going to do today? The question of the long days of summer! Here’s a story memory
At the end of the race, we like to hear cheers! Good starts need great endings and successful endings lead
Recently, Master’s launched its new website, and with this blog we are now launching “Master’s Blog”. The purpose of the new Master’s Blog will be to inform and educate parents and key stakeholders on Profound Learning, to build a sense of community and belonging, and to promote the Master’s Imaginal brand in Calgary.
