Galvanize a new generation of young Canadians to greater productivity by inspiring them to be b
ld, inn
vative and ambiti
us, to take risks, try new ideas and dare.
Our starting point? Shifting the Canadian perspective on success from undermining to celebrating it.
If we want our young people to reach for the stars, we need to build a culture that will support them on their journey and celebrate them when they succeed. How do we galvanize that social change? The answer, as quantified in a 2018 study on tipping point theory published by the University of Pennsylvania, is to shift the mindset of 25% of our population.
Teaching young people about the most powerful ally to success
Fostering a new generation of entrepreneurial thinkers begins by equipping them with skills to take risks – to try, fail and try again until they succeed. Shift Failure is a new experiential educational program for grades 5-12 that teaches youth critical skills such as perseverance, grit, resilience and determination through the lens of failure. More than 4,000 educators have brought the program into their classrooms in 2023/2024, impacting more than 100,000 students.
