Why does Professional Development suffer a bad rep? Why does it not stick? In this episode, Dennis and Mark is joined by Educator and entrepreneur Neelesh Bhatia to discuss how we can make professional development stick and how we can make it part and parcel of the professional growth of every educator and more importantly, do what Hargreaves and Fullan describe as "Professional Capital".


The Founder and CEO of Akadasia, Neelesh Bhatia, is a creative, results driven visionary thought leader with 30 years of internationally proven experience in the field of entrepreneurship education, business innovation, media & technology.
