Sam opens up the discussion about a recent episode of the show highlighting the growing demand for critical thinking in the workplace, and how skills like Red Team Thinking could be incorporated into education to prepare young people for an increasingly complex world.

How red team thinking will be needed to meet future needs
Why parents want to know how to teach kids applied critical thinking
Why teachers need to focus on more than just standardized testing
