enABELing Innovation with Art (21st Century Renaissance, Ep. 4)

This is Episode 4 of "21st Century Renaissance" video podcast series. Harvey Seifter and Fred Mandell present the ABEL system - a dynamic learning and development system born out of a 10-year research funded by the National Science Foundation - with stories of real world impact it has made: from catalyzing novel products and services at incubators to elevating performance of leadership teams at Fortune 500 companies. We dive into the system’s unique processes and mechanisms to bring about transformational change, such as transliteration of insights from visual arts, and different flavors of improvisational intelligence imparted by a jazz ensemble as compared to a multi-leader classical orchestra. We discuss the system’s relevance in the age of AI and exponential technologies, and the value of collaboration even for innovation led by autocratic leaders with strong personalities. We exchange views on the role of informal education and life-long learning to counter the rigid, hierarchical and monolithic formal education structure entrenched in our society, no longer well-suited for navigating the volatile, topsy-turvy world we live in today. 00:00:00 Episode overview 00:02:43 Guest introduction - individual paths, encounter, and partnership 00:20:03 ABEL system - genesis, process, portfolio, and transliteration of insights; stories of real world impact 01:12:16 Skills and mindsets of future-ready leaders, taught with art 01:16:05 Improvisational intelligence - lessons from jazz ensembles vs. multi-leader classical orchestras 01:21:35 Exponential change and leading into unknowns 01:26:10 What about innovation led by autocratic leaders? 01:32:33 Who are future-ready leaders? 01:37:38 Does AI make the ABEL system more or less relevant? 01:40:55 STEAM movement, informal education and lifelong learning ahead of the curve 01:47:00 Reflection of personal journeys ABOUT THE GUESTS Harvey Seifter is the founder of The Art of Science Learning, a National Science Foundation-funded initiative that uses the arts to spark innovation in science, technology, engineering and education. Harvey is also a classically trained musician, with 20 years at the helm of arts organizations garnering 5 Grammys and the Kennedy Center Award.

What might enable a desperately-needed renewal, and catalyze a profound transformation? What lessons can we learn from history? How can we shape the future for better trajectories? How will the changing world order hasten or hinder such trajectories? What inspirations can be drawn for personal renewal, whether or not a large-scale societal renaissance materializes? The new podcast will interview authors, thinkers, practitioners, artists, scientists, creative leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs who reimagine a world of possibilities, going beyond or even against prevailing narratives and methodologies. It showcases promising new explorations, approaches, and organizations, as well as those that have been on the fringe, daring to ask probing new questions, reframe problems, and reinvent systems for a creative rebirth. The conversations are themed around what we imagine as cornerstones of a 21st Century Renaissance: The Da Vinci Way: convergence of knowledge Better understanding of the mind / consciousness New kind of humanism, vis-a-vis technology, spirituality, and nature Return to beauty: aesthetics as important human value OUTRO MUSIC COURTESY: Rayko of Lolita Dark, www.Rayko.com
