Game Changers

The Game Changers podcast celebrates those true pioneers in education who are building schools for tomorrow. In episode 200 (Part 3) of Game Changers, Phil Cummins joins in conversation with Andrew Donnelly & Neil Wolstenholme! Andrew Donnelly has worked in the education sector since 2008 and is driven by a deep passion for transforming how we prepare young people for life beyond the classroom. Convinced that the global education system often fails to serve the true needs of students, he co-founded Kloodle in 2014 to help shift the focus from grades alone to a more holistic view of individual potential. Inspired by Sir Ken Robinson's renowned TED Talk on creativity in education, Andrew and his co-founders recognised that academic achievement is just one piece of the puzzle. Schools, he believes, have become production lines, churning out students who often lack the self-awareness, creativity, and adaptability required for a fulfilling life and career. Kloodle was created to highlight and value the meaningful experiences young people gain through enrichment, peer interaction, and real-world skill development - what Andrew calls the "transferable skills currency." These are the traits that employers truly value and that enable students to thrive in an unpredictable and fast-changing world. A decade into the journey, Andrew and his team stand on the brink of significant change, backed by a growing community of like-minded educators, employers, and institutions who share the vision of a reimagined education system - one that equips young people not just for exams, but for purpose, happiness, and lifelong success. Neil Wolstenholme has had a long and varied journey across education, business and life. What he's learned along the way is that it's not exam results that define a person—it's their skills, character and how they respond to the challenges they face. For Neil, qualifications are just hoops to jump through; nobody ever asks what A-levels you got when deciding whether you're kind, dependable or capable. An exceptionally talented sportsman who played football at a very high level in his younger days, Neil sees clear parallels between the grit, resilience and teamwork forged on the pitch and the attributes which underpin success and contentment in life. It's these lived experiences, and the people he's met along the way, which have shaped his belief in the lifelong value of character.

The Game Changers podcast celebrates those true pioneers in education who are building schools for tomorrow. In episode 195 (Part 3) of Game Changers, Phil Cummins joins in conversation with Homa Sabet Tavangar Born in Iran, raised in the U.S., and having lived in South America and Africa, Homa Sabet Tavangar's life and work have led her on a journey exploring the roots of purpose, innovation and belonging. Homa connects timely topics with the timeless desire to work with intention and make a difference — whatever one's circumstances. As co-founder of BigQuestions.Institute and OnenessLab.com, she partners with thought leaders dedicated to re-imagining learning and work while centering equity, inquiry and innovation. Homa's innovative approach has led schools and companies from crisis to global citizenship and competence in ways that create belonging across perspectives. Her approach fosters empathy, collaboration, diversity, inclusion, leadership, futures thinking, and creative problem-solving in complex, multicultural settings, — and re-imagines academic institutions and workplaces for the 21st Century. Homa is the author of widely-acclaimed books, including Growing Up Global: Raising Children to Be At Home in the World (Random House, 2009), Global Kids: 50+ Games, Crafts, Recipes & More from Around the World (Barefoot Books, 2019), The Global Education Toolkit for Elementary Learners (Sage/Corwin, 2014), co-author of a 3-book series with Professor Yong Zhao on educating creative, entrepreneurial World Class Learners (Corwin, 2016), and contributor to Mastering Global Literacy, by Heidi Hayes-Jacobs, ed. (Solution Tree, 2013). Most recently she co-authored 9 BIG Questions Schools Must Answer to Avoid Going “Back to Normal” (*Because “Normal” Wasn't That Great to Begin With). Her work has been hailed by international education and business leaders and media — from Dr. Jane Goodall to the BBC, NPR, NBC, ABC, Washington Post.com, Chicago Tribune and Sun-Times, Boston Globe, PBS, Scholastic, Parents Magazine, Rodale, and many more. Growing Up Global has been a best-seller in Parenting, Education, and Globalization categories, and introduced the possibilities of raising and educating global citizens to a wide audience. Her article on Empathy was Edutopia's most shared piece for four continuous years. Global Kids is the winner of the 2021 Tilliwig Best Children's Products award. Homa translates culture, diversity, innovation and globalization trends and breakthroughs into academic and social-emotional learning in ways that empower CEOs, teachers, parents and learners from Kindergarten to graduate students thrive in a global context — and have fun along the way. She advises entertainment pioneers Disney Channel and Empatico.org on cultural bias, and NBC's Sprout TV on script development and cultural elements in the ambitious, young children's animated series “Nina's World,” based in part on Growing Up Global, and starring Rita Moreno and Mandy Patinkin.

Homa is the author of widely-acclaimed books, including Growing Up Global: Raising Children to Be At Home in the World (Random House, 2009), Global Kids: 50+ Games, Crafts, Recipes & More from Around the World (Barefoot Books, 2019), The Global Education Toolkit for Elementary Learners (Sage/Corwin, 2014), co-author of a 3-book series with Professor Yong Zhao on educating creative, entrepreneurial World Class Learners (Corwin, 2016), and contributor to Mastering Global Literacy, by Heidi Hayes-Jacobs, ed. (Solution Tree, 2013). Most recently she co-authored 9 BIG Questions Schools Must Answer to Avoid Going “Back to Normal” (*Because “Normal” Wasn't That Great to Begin With). Her work has been hailed by international education and business leaders and media — from Dr. Jane Goodall to the BBC, NPR, NBC, ABC, Washington Post.com, Chicago Tribune and Sun-Times, Boston Globe, PBS, Scholastic, Parents Magazine, Rodale, and many more. Growing Up Global has been a best-seller in Parenting, Education, and Globalization categories, and introduced the possibilities of raising and educating global citizens to a wide audience. Her article on Empathy was Edutopia's most shared piece for four continuous years. Global Kids is the winner of the 2021 Tilliwig Best Children's Products award. Homa translates culture, diversity, innovation and globalization trends and breakthroughs into academic and social-emotional learning in ways that empower CEOs, teachers, parents and learners from Kindergarten to graduate students thrive in a global context — and have fun along the way. She advises entertainment pioneers Disney Channel and Empatico.org on cultural bias, and NBC's Sprout TV on script development and cultural elements in the ambitious, young children's animated series “Nina's World,” based in part on Growing Up Global, and starring Rita Moreno and Mandy Patinkin.

The Game Changers podcast celebrates those true pioneers in education who are building schools for tomorrow. In episode 194 (Part 3) of Game Changers, Phil Cummins joins in conversation with Jess & Krys Wootten founders of Wootten. Jess took over Custom Fit Australia when he was 23 years old. He was bright-eyed and full of ideas with his Dad's old shoemaking tools to make use of. Fast forward 17 years and he is still bright-eyed and full of ideas, but has also gained a broad variety of experience in the leather craft and varying facets of the footwear industry. Jess is the founder and leader of the team at Wootten. In the workshop he lasts all the footwear by hand and stitches every sole together. He is also our main sewer for our bags and accessories. He has a fondness for old shoemaking tools, lovingly displaying them on a wall in the workshop. In his spare time, Jess likes to potter in the garden and make stuff. Before starting with Wootten in 2015, Krys was heavily involved in the wine industry. She worked eight vintages at wineries around Australia and Italy, before becoming Wine Manager for Enoteca Sileno and finally Kind & Godfree in Carlton. Krys was thrown in the deep end when she began at Wootten, initially looking after the retail side. Today, she is head of footwear and accessory cutting and finishing and is the general operations manager and also one of the main people you'll meet when you come into the shop. Krys enjoys helping customers push their design and aesthetic boundaries and finding the right fit. In her spare time, you'll find Krys making wine for her Galotz label, pottering with Jess & Quincy in their garden, having cups of tea, reading Japanese manga, or cuddling their dog, Hunter Rooney.

The Game Changers podcast celebrates those true pioneers in education who are building schools for tomorrow. In episode 193 of Game Changers, Phil Cummins joins in conversation with Benjamin Cooper, Executive Chef at Chin Chin for a holiday special. Hailing from the small town of Taree in New South Wales, Benjamin Cooper has been Executive Chef at beloved Southeast Asian restaurant Chin Chin for the past 13 years. He has worked with several of Australia's most celebrated chefs, flexing his skill and knowledge in kitchens across Melbourne and the UK. Originally aiming to pursue a career in economics, Benjamin ended up completing a culinary apprenticeship on a gap year — and never looked back. The early days of his career saw him head to the UK, where he worked with head chefs at renowned restaurants including Nobu London, Bluebird in Chelsea and Smiths of Smithfield. Cooper's passion for authentic techniques and high-quality ingredients grew as he worked with Australia's best-known Thai cuisine chef, David Thompson, at Nahm within London's The Halkin — the first Michelin-starred Thai restaurant in Europe. Returning to Melbourne, Benjamin worked as Head Chef at fine-diner Ezard and esteemed Thai restaurant Longrain, both stints cementing his love of fresh and fiery flavours. In 2011, Benjamin joined restaurateur Chris Lucas to launch Chin Chin, where his now trademark big, brash flavour combinations had diners lining up down the street from day one. An icon of Melbourne's food scene, Chin Chin arguably kickstarted the city's trend of dining with energy, colour and music from its location on Flinders Lane. Benjamin's passion, understanding of ingredients and knack for experimenting with flavours and texture combinations has redefined Southeast Asian cuisine in Australia. It's helped drive Chin Chin's incredible success within the country's hospitality scene, not just with the restaurant's original Melbourne location, but also its second outpost in Sydney's Surry Hills (opened in 2017) and the addition of Club Chin Chin at GMHBA Stadium (2024). Aside from the fiery Asian food he brings to life at Chin Chin, Cooper is passionate about coffee and cheese, and shares his years of culinary experience with those keen to learn via Chin Chin's own ‘Cooking with Cooper' classes. Benjamin's recipes and kitchen experience have also contributed to Chin Chin's three cookbooks, ‘Chin Chin: The Book', ‘Chin Chin: Feed Me' and the just-released ‘Chin Chin: Still Hungry'.
