Victor Saad decided to take his education into his own hands and handcraft a unique personal educational experience called the "Leap Year Project." He is now crystallizing his vision for reinventing education by building a new school called the Experience Institute. In this episode of A Congruent Life, Victor discusses his thoughts about customized experiential education, including: his personal journey that led him to rethink pursuing a traditional MBA program, developing a personal "Leap Year Project" that valued experience and connection over content, lessons learned from selecting experiences, financing the project, and asking for help, inspiring thoughts about what he values "if I started a school..." lessons learned, and a compelling vision for an alternative educational approach called the Experience Institute, how authenticity and individuality plays into reinvention.
