As mentioned in her ebook, McKeown says that, “that the current educational system is an anti-entrepreneurial system” and “utterly dismisses the passions and strengths of the students, just as much as their struggles” which is otherwise known as RAMIT. Giinius wants to change that and implement SPIRIT, where we can “we can create legions of free, bold, thinking entrepreneurs in all fields”. This includes people of all ages, fields and countries. Our mission is to revolutionize education with the SPIRIT approach, nurturing entrepreneurial minds by valuing individual passions and strengths. We aim to replace restrictive models with personalized learning, empowering learners to innovate and contribute positively to society.
