How School Trained You to Fail (from former CEO)

- YOU DON'T NEED TO ASK PERMISSION! THERE ARE JOBS WAITING FOR YOU ON THE HIDDEN JOB MARKET THAT YOU CAN GET THROUGH SPECIFIC INDEPENDENT ACTION ON YOUR PART.
You are conditioned by the educational system to follow rules and not question procedures. However, this conditioning works against you when you become an adult and have to get a job - if nobody has told you what the procedure is, or no one has given you permission or approval to do something, you don't do it. This limits you since you could do many things that would be right for yourself, that lead to your success and prosperity, but instead you fall prey to serving the interests of other parties, since they are the only ones tell you to follow a procedure. It turns out it is THEIR procedure that serves them and not you, and therefore you've just been victimized and exploited.

There is a big difference between what you learn in business school, and what you need to know in the real world - just ask any startup founder or business owner! My goal is to focus on the real-world aspects of business, giving practical tips and tricks that are not usually covered in school.
This channel is a platform to help job seekers, entrepreneurs and business owners succeed. It is also to help the world at large to be more effective and successful in their careers. The world can certainly use more inspiring leaders, more successful entrepreneurs, more employed job seekers, and more capable managers - that is what I would like to help bring about.
Who Am I?
I am a practicing management consultant, former CEO, and entrepreneur. I have led many businesses to success, as well as several startups. Among other things, I have an engineering degree, and a master's degree in finance.
I have worked across five industries, and have worked in both large enterprise and small businesses. I have also mentored startup founders and teach business and HR at a post-graduate level.
Why I Want To Involve My Community:
The only way this channel will succeed is with YOUR help. In order to know how best to proceed, I need constant feedback from YOU. What topics should I cover? What challenges are you facing? What questions do you have? What changes should I make?
Thank you for being here and reading this, best of luck, and have yourself an amazing day!

@@TheCompaniesExpert Yes, For a very long time I thought I was the only one who understands this! Thank you
Exactly sir! Education is broken! Teachers having mental battle everyday, everywhere.
It’s easier to control those who aren’t willing to think for themselves
Right, And it is harder for people to Not understand that they have been controlled or manipulated.
My teachers hated me and I hated school because I questioned everything.
To this day (I'm 56 now) I have never really conformed to society unless it makes sense to.
For the record I am now semi retired, fully own my own home on 4 acres, have no debts and have been happily married for 33 years. And I have never continued to do any job I on balance dislike.
I'm a few years older than you but we've had similar lives it sounds. I was lucky, I had some teachers both in high school and college that encouraged me to question and do things my way, even if that ruffled some feathers. One prof's favorite saying was "sacred cows make the best hamburger". He was a character right out of a movie. You'd see him roller skating from the lab building to the classrooms, wearing bright blue coveralls and a hard hat with a flashing yellow light on top he made after he almost got ran over by a car a couple years earlier. He lived life on his terms.
Love this way of living!
No good deed goes unpunished- innovate on your own and prosper.
I know what you mean man. I was relentlessly bullied and pressured by my family, peers, and educators to do what they instructed and approved of; well into the workforce mind you.
The funny thing is that I am by far the most successful person in my entire family; married, home, children. Yet they still thumb their nose as me because I didn't listen to their wisdom lol
In my upcoming job, they outright told me that questioning the way things are done is valued. The job is about process improvement, and that doesn't happen without questioning rules and procedures, and challenging the status quo.
I've had those jobs... I hope yours actually appreciates constructive feedback 😂
"They" will tell you lots of stuff. Stuff intended to make both themselves and you feel "positive." But wait until the rubber actually meets the road. You will find that 9 of 10 times it was fluff. I wish you good luck and hope you found the 1 in 10 situation where it's true.
Like Rockefeller and Carnegie said: “We want obedient workers, not thinkers” 😅
I think your description of the school system is spot-on. I worked as a paraeducator for two years (one at the elementary level, one at a high school working with special needs students), and the size of classes really does put teachers in a position where they need students to be quiet and obedient. At the elementary level, it's a safety issue. Little kids aren't great at controlling their bodies or emotions, and if things get too chaotic in a classroom with 25-35 kids, they can hurt themselves or their peers. At the high school level, you have kids rotation between 6 different 55-minute classes, and teachers need things to go smoothly if they're going to fit their entire lesson plan into that slot. Kids who ask too many questions or create distractions throw off that rhythm and can put the whole class behind. The emphasis on conformity isn't great for the kids, but teachers have a lot of pressure on them to keep things moving along smoothly.
I think a lot of the problems with the factory-style education system could be fixed by either having smaller class sizes or by alternating between large group sessions and small break-out groups or even by allowing more self-directed study with teachers available for assistance and check-ins. Of course, any significant reform to the public school system would require a lot of research and resources, and education is underfunded as it is.
HR curates who gets hired....for a job HR has never done....with people that HR has never worked with in-house....so HR makes offers to people that HR thinks are great but that doesn't necessarily mean they are actually good candidates for the job.
True
HR gets told who to hire by executives in operational departments in a company. In most companies, the HR executive vice president is an expendable afterthought. Do you really think HR hires engineers in an engineering company? How about pilots in an airline?
HR ruins companies.
They are better off without an HR department.
HR departments basically only exist to protect companies from discrimination lawsuits. Lawyers are the reason the HR department exists.
@@glyphics1943 that's weird, it's almost like infrastructure and aviation has actually been suffering from quality issues recently 🤔 (least in 'murica)
Directly message the actual hiring manager.
Good perspective, my son is graduating college this Spring and was completely caught up with the narrative everyone was pushing, it's a hard tide to fight against, but it's your time and life, not the herd's
This issue is not only in school , we can see this in workplace and beyond .
Same principles as training animals to obey - reward-punishment-repetition.
Another point: 100% the kid who is GUARANTEED to speak up is the delinquent. When the kids see this peer with zero respect for anyone, especially themselves, being the only one acting independently, they reach a false conclusion. "Only bad, unemployable, unlikable people color outside the lines" and while this is completely wrong, it's played out in every classroom thousands of times. Like you said, schools don't have to be malicious or doing this intentionally, it's just something that happens due to circumstances.
Great example
we're social animals, so sending the signal that "I'm one of you" is important to society. So the person that stands out is usually somewhat stigmatized.
@@GlueTubberare you speaking of workplace mobbing?
what are u saying? elaborate pls
So basically, since IO failed school, I actually won! I am self educated, failed school, and can survive at the age of 60. I need to repeat this. I never graduated from school. I left early with a GED, and had no passion for anything 'school'. And here I am, 60, own a house, and my children are grown up and moved out. Thanks for making me realize I was right all along, and never fell for the trap.
Public schools are cog stamping factories. They were designed that way.
Public school tends to reward students for following directions, moreso than mastery of the curriculum
Gotta break the rules if you wanna win big. That single file line stuff won't cut it haha.
They don't value it enough, or I would be content to be a good little worker rather than launching my own competing business.
I'm in government, and (in Australia at least) you can transfer easily to another government job at the same level (because we have standardised pay levels, its called Section 26), but they can't give you a promotion unless you apply for an advertised position. And they're not allowed to take into account anything they may already know about you. They have to declare if they know you already.
In the private sector of course, it's completely different.
90% of people need structure and school because of a lack of self discipline. The Mavericks out there who make it in life understand the rules FIRST then learned how to break them and innovate. Those are rare individuals. The exception not the rule
I make clear two things are not to be conflated with-schooling and education. When schools fail me and many free thinkers and outlaw anything outside the box, it’s warring against rebellion disruption innovation. I took my education upon myself since high school. Sports forged my discipline and arts made me articulate. My self teaching showed me the world in the way schools never will and I might be disadvantaged by popular standard in workplaces where pedigree is prevalent, but I took this time to learn about myself and make something possible to serve needs people have long been having. My Econ degree played a somewhat negative role in finances “, learning skills and ideas that matter. Hope more people will recognize the immense value in thinking for themselves even if it ostracizes them isolates them temporarily. Just you wait, I assure you you will be thankful who you made yourself become before AI does. More people to this movement. Don’t normally write this long a comment 🎉
And that's one big reason why at the software companies I worked at we always loved to hire farm kids, people who had a background working with cars, etc. In short, people that knew how to find and fix problems and weren't going to sit around waiting for someone to hold their hand or wipe their ... nose. I'll take someone like that over a 4.0 GPA any day. And thinking on it, I never in my career looked at a posted job. My first job the company had a friend in the registrar's office at the university and they got my transcript and gave me a call. And every job from there on was based on word of mouth and my reputation. It's not only good to hire people that are motivated, it's good to be such a person ;)
Thank God ! I find this channel. This is truly informative and eye opening. Subscribed !
This is awesome 😂 I’m in school, and I’d like to speak my thoughts most of the time, but I understand that sometimes I have to follow the rules. 😢
You're making very good points.
In college at the moment and I feel this 😢 I’m constantly questioning it
DON'T! Get your degree. Especially if it's STEM. Even if you don't use it, it'll set you apart from unskilled workers.
Hate to break it to you, but most dropouts don't become Bill Gates.
Without a doubt teachers hated me for challenging them. It’s hard to get ahead when you don’t have a degree from the system. They don’t want thinkers they want sheeple.
I saw two things, the irritable teachers absolutely hated the ones who constantly questioned the source of material and those who were free willed(idiot or smart)
Kindly address where a young person should go to meet prospective employers or managers, in 2025 when it is all online and when people are kept out of physical buildings by doormen. I can make a great impression in person but am not given the opportunity to do so.

100% true, oftentimes upbringing reinforces this twisted sense of 'obedience'; I'd say girls are more likely to accept this system, boys most of the time more rebelious are often fought with and have tough time at school
On average men are more disagreeable than women and less likely to do stuff they don't want to do .
Yet more men end up in the higher ranks of most organisations
Great topic. There is so many times i love instruction. Its easier. This is why many people make great soldiers. Imagine leaving the school system and your first year of college or the first apartment. We often return to hug parents and or best teachers. For independence can overwhelm. Its a thin line between these types of freedoms.. 😊
The problem with school is the other idiotic pupils you have to be in the same room with all day. Not really the teachers imo.
Plenty of teachers were as dumb as the ratchet kids.
Great video and I completely agree. When we had to hire someone recently we based much of our decision on who to pick for the position on having worked with one of the individuals at an adjacent company. We knew her work ethic and personality which made it an easy pick of several unknowns.
The teacher worship in this country is crazy …
Anyone understand the term, human resource?
"Human Racehorses,"
Well, to be fair, we still need sheep. We can't all be herders, most of us will need to be herd.
I'm glad someone finally said it!
Knew I liked you ✔️
