TEM10: Jonathan Kuuskoski, Director of Entrepreneurship and Community Programs at Mizzou
Jonathan Kuuskoski is the Director of Entrepreneurship and Community Programs at the University of Missouri and is one of the brightest people I have ever spoken.
This conversation is packed full of information. I found myself pausing it a lot on my relisten to process everything he was saying.
Topics Covered:
How becoming a successful artist is contingent on creating a community that is based on reciprocal value
How he was able to take a year to create his current position at Mizzou based on the specific needs of the community and the pre-existing assets of the school
On the current state of academia particularly in relation to the arts
The importance of getting into the Build->Measure->Learn feedback loop as quickly as possible
The power of huge, audacious goals
