New York City, New York Dec 17, 2020 (Issuewire.com) - Today, Kyle Garman, senior vice president of Global Business Development at SAP and author of the best-selling book, “The Entrepreneurial Mindset: Preparing Our Next Generation For The Future Work,” was named Author of the Year for 2020 by the International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP) for his outstanding leadership, vision, and commitment to empowering young people with the mindset required to thrive in the 21st-century economy.
Membership to the International Association of Top Professionals is highly selective and honors top achievers from across sectors and fields around the world. These special honorees are distinguished by their leadership, accomplishments, and social impact. Stephanie Cirami, President of IAOTP said, “We are truly honored to select Mr. Garman as our Author of the Year. His mission to empower our next generation for the future of work really stood out to our committee. Mr. Garman makes an exceptionally compelling case for why – and how – our educational systems must adapt to equip students with the sort of mindset necessary to thrive in the 21st-century economy.”
Mr. Garman is also a board member of NFTE, an international nonprofit that has reached over 1 million under-resourced students through project-based entrepreneurship education. In addition to his charitable work on behalf of young student-entrepreneurs, Mr. Garman is donating 100% of his author royalties back to NFTE.
Garman’s research for the book is based on NFTE’s 33 years of working with students around the world as they start businesses in classrooms and develop the entrepreneurial mindset in the process. International discourse often cites STEM education as the best preparation for the 21st-century economy. But, according to “The Entrepreneurial Mindset: Preparing Our Next Generation For The Future Work,” STEM is not enough. The book demonstrates how the eight domains of The Entrepreneurial Mindset are essential to flourish in this new era upon us.
