The world we live in today worships the Specialist – the person who knows more and more about less and less. I’m not convinced that’s the best option for our future. I think the time has come for the Generalist to be taken more seriously, for the good of a more equal society.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
