Make your Alt-MBA wish!

Ranked #8,265 in Squidoo Community, #511,690 overall

We can make it come true.

We're crazy about Seth.
We're crazy about making a change in our world.
We applied for the Alternative MBA.
We might get in.
We might not.
We still want to change the world.
These are our wishes.

Seth says, "Make a Wish."

We say, "Vote".

Over on the Alternative MBA Ning Group, Miss Roxy Allen had a fabulous idea: "It would be cool to pick one person's wish and work on it."

This is that second step (the first step happened when you made the wish).

Post your wish. Then post your vote. And post your lens link too so we know whose wish it was! Maybe one day we can all get together and make that wish come true.

I wish to improve transparency of actions and reactions, so that the economy could operate at a near optimum with low barriers to entry across all fields.

I wish we were all given the resources, opportunities, and support to do whatever we want - even just exploring what it is we like in the first place.

    So many good ideas, but you are right, it is individual and team action that will cause positive change.

    NJ, my wish would involve re-engineering education for this new era. For now, most of my lenses are just making waves, hoping to wash away support under archaic and entrenched, centrist learning philosophies. A student's desire is key to learning - not an education industries manipulations.

    There will be a ground swell of realization, and a tide in the affairs of men; we will then surf that to a new shore.
