This discussion will consider criticism of our management concepts. We admit our discipline might be limping a bit but using the film “Finding Dory” as a metaphor, we support the idea that “worth is not based upon your disability but what you do in spite of it.” In a “World Café” format, participants will engage four related topics: the fidelity of what we teach; the loss of vitality of our theories; the end of entrepreneurialism; and possibility of a new paradigm. Following small group discussions, participants will find the meaning of the topics and applications to our work as educators.
