The Last Lifeboat “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” Alvin Toffler the last lifeboat Are people, all human beings, smart? Then why is our education system so caught up in coaches, teachers, cheerleaders and managers on the sidelines grading and judging, only to lead our nation to robotic systems keepers instead of lovers of learning? The Last Life- boat asks these hard questions about our current education system and offers hope for the future—teaching people to learn, unlearn, and relearn. From courageous truth combined with witty anecdotes and humor at our own stupidity, Skip Work incites readers of all classes and status to reinvent the future of education in America now—before the future is upon us! Read it or not, the future is now. the last lifeboat The Last Lifeboat was written for the estimated 225 million Americans who do not have a college degree. A College Decree for $29.99 is the alternate title. Ironically, those who have a college degree might want to read it too, especially if one day their diploma turns into a learner’s permit that labels them as an “I have to be taught” passenger who may or may not possess the skills required to drive their own learning. When there are a limited number of lifeboats on any Titanic system… Author Skip Work is the son of Robert Grant Work, Capt/CWO4 Marine Gunner, USMC. His father was a decorated combat veteran in World War II, the Korean and Viet- nam Wars who passed away in 1984. The Gunner served his country and corps with honor for over 30 years. He taught his sons and daughter, your fathers and grandfathers about equality, learning and leadership. He did not teach through words, but by his actions. “I am entirely certain that twenty years from now we will look back at education as it is practiced in most schools today and wonder that we could have tolerated anything so primitive.” learn, unlearn, and relearn.

Performance Hat Trick (The Action Agents) Mikey Pioneer Medic I’ll do it! I’ll figure it out! I’ll know it! (Better) (Anything) (More) “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood…who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself at a worthy cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and…if he fails, at least fails daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” Theodore Roosevelt, “Man in the Arena” Speech given April 23, 1910 Performance is the driving force of this great nation. Performance is the precursor to leadership. So what’s the point? Time to Cowboy up Table of Contents Foreword by Robert O.

Work “He has always likened learning to riding a roller-coaster with many twists and turns—exciting and scary at the same time. Those who conquer their fear and “just do it”—just get on the ride—will be rewarded with the thrill of a lifetime.” • • • • I am the last person who should be writing this foreword. I graduated from high school as the valedictorian with a 4.0 grade point average. I greatly enjoyed my college experience at the University of Illinois, as I impatiently waited to be commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps. In the process, I fell in love with learning new things. Shortly after becoming a Marine, I earned a Masters of Science in Systems Management, to the great dismay of my brother, Skip, who, as you will soon see, thinks managers rank just above pond scum. To redeem myself in his technician’s eyes, I later earned a Master’s of Science in Systems Technology (Space Systems Operations) from the Naval Postgraduate School. Finally, I earned a Master’s in International Public Policy from the Johns Hopkins Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies. If I thought I could fit it in between my job and family, I would 11 the last lifeboat probably try for a Ph.D. in strategic studies, even at this late date in my life. In other words, I have no real complaint with the U.S. education system. I have found it to hold incredible opportunities for those willing to take them. However, Skip is on a mission to change the way we all think about training, education, learning, and leadership. I don’t take his mission lightly. Long ago, I learned to listen to what Skip said he was going to do, say, “Whatever turns you on,” and then wait to see what happened.
