In Conversation with Sam Freedman | ep. 113
Manage episode 445094076 series 2789958
In his recent book, Failed State: Why Nothing Works and How We Fix It, Sam Freedman lays out why people matter, but systems matter more. Having a run of incompetent, corrupt leaders is a problem. But our problems run deeper – and we will get nowhere until we fix our systems.
It’s not enough to change who sits in Westminster and Whitehall – we have change the whole system.
The change we need is no small feat – and it’s bloody complicated. But unless our systems and politicians give away power, there is something much nastier around the corner. We’re excited to welcome Sam onto the podcast on 8th October to talk about how to make the state capable of meeting the challenges of the 21st century.
Sam is a Senior Fellow covering education at the Institute of Government and a former senior adviser on schools at the Department for Education.
