There are six million open jobs in America right now, with no one qualified to fill them…that number will grow to eleven million unfilled jobs by 2025. These are high paying jobs that don’t require a college degree, highlighting the national skills gap between what today’s employers need and what today’s job seekers have. How can we close this skills gap when schools are laser focused on getting students to college, instead of ready for a job or career? Mark Perna is CEO of TFS Results and an extremely popular public speaker at corporations around the world on increasing productivity and employee retention. His new book, ANSWERING WHY (Greenleaf Press, September 2018) outlines his wide experience on how to transform the approach job seekers young and old take when preparing for careers. He points to examples that show how America’s branch is creaking, from the college debt epidemic to a misaligned education system, and how in times past the creaking branches and national crises of WWII and Sputnick spurred high-tech innovations that solved issues we couldn’t previously tackle. This national crisis also underlines the overall problem of an awareness gap that today’s students have about the multitude of careers and education paths that don’t necessarily follow the traditional route of a college degree in order to secure a career. During interviews, author Mark Perna would discuss: --The growing skills gap and how to close it --The awareness gap of potential careers in extremely high demand that don’t need a college degree, but do require hard skills --The Career Tree that was crafted by over 150 professional educators that show students and parents hundreds and thousands of jobs available, all with unique training or education requirements that don’t need an expensive 4-year college degree --How many young people don’t want the types of jobs their parents or grandparents had, and what to do about that --Who college and the pursuit of a 4-year degree is right for and how to make that work instead of being an expensive piece of paper ANSWERING WHY helps unlock the potential of today’s young people and job seekers of all types, while delivering hard-won experience about how anyone can achieve their goals and make a difference in this world. Speak with Mark Perna for an entertaining and engaging look at how to bridge the awareness and skills gaps and change America’s course from falling behind the rest of the world to once again take the lea

While many are familiar with the story of how DARPA (actually it was its predecessor ARPA) invented the internet. What few are familiar with is the untold stories of of DARPA and how its innovators solved some of the most pressing problems we faced. DARPA was created in 1958 in response to the launch of Sputnick with the mission to ensure that the United States didn't find itself behind the Soviets when it came to technology - especially in space. While its focus was on technology and innovation for the Pentagon, its work has had significant impact on civilian life. This weeks guest, Sharon Weinberger, shares some of the untold stories abut DARPA based on her newly released book, The Imagineers of War: The Untold Story of DARPA, the Pentagon Agency That Changed the World The Untold Stories of DARPA DARPA is responsible for some of the most important technologies of the past six decades. Some of its projects are successes, some are failures, and some are best left to history to judge. Here is a list of DARPA's most notable—and in some cases notorious—contributions to science, technology and warfare. Driverless Cars: Today's driverless automobiles being developed by Google, Uber and others are a direct result of DARPA's robotic car races that began in 2004, with a course that ran across the Mojave Desert. The first winner of it's Grand Challenge competition was recruited by Google to start work on the company's autonomous vehicles. The Internet: More than any single person or agency, DARPA can lay claim to having "invented" the Internet. In the 1960s, it sponsored development of a system of networked computers called the ARPANET, the predecessor to the modern Internet. DARPA's work on areas such as networking, packet switching and time-sharing laid the foundations for personal computing. Drones: During the Vietnam War, the agency was responsible for developing the first armed drones. In the 1990s, the agency funded an Israeli aerospace engineer to build an unmanned aerial vehicle, which later evolved into the Predator, the armed drone most closely associated with targeted killings. Agent Orange: In the 1960s, DARPA introduced chemical defoliation to Southeast Asia, believing that it could help eliminate jungle cover used by communist insurgents fighting the U.S.-backed government in South Vietnam. The work grew from early experiments into a widespread military spraying program that today is held responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths and sicknesses. Border Wall Technology: In 1962, scientists working for DARPA outlined a proposal to create a barrier between North and South Vietnam. Eventually, that proposal morphed into the infamous McNamara Line, an electronic barrier that failed. Yet many of the concepts and technologies developed by DARPA, such as tethered aerostats and seismic sensors, are now used along the U.S.-Mexican border. Stealth Aircraft: In the 1970s, DARPA sponsored development of the first "invisible aircraft," a stealth prototype codenamed Have Blue. The stealth aircraft was designed to be invisible to radar in order to slip past Soviet air defense systems. The U.S. military's current fleet of stealth aircraft, including the stealth helicopters used in the 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden, can all be traced back to DARPA. Nuclear Test Detection: One of DARPA's earliest projects was a network of sensors and satellites to detect foreign nuclear tests. President John F. Kennedy relied on DARPA's results in deciding to go forward with a Limited Test Ban Treaty in 1963 that halted nuclear tests in the atmosphere, oceans and outer space. Modern Seismography: To advance work in underground nuclear test detection, DARPA invested heavily in the discipline of seismography and built a worldwide network of seismograph stations. The sensor network, and DARPA funding, is widely credited with advancing seismography and allowing scientists to collect the data needed to confirm the theory of plate tectonics. M-16: During the Vietnam War, DARPA bought the Armalite-15 rifle for South Vietnamese soldiers. Eventually, it became the M-16, the standard weapon used by all three U.S. military services. Artificial Intelligence: In the 1980s, DARPA launched a billion dollar initiative to develop artificial intelligence. The agency invested in everything from computer vision—teaching machines to "see" —to thinking computers that could help military pilots fly aircraft. The program was shut down in less than a decade and branded a "failure" at the time. Yet now some of the technologies DARPA invested in, like voice recognition, are widely used in the commercial sector (iPhone's Siri, for example, was a spinoff of a DARPA project). Robotics: DARPA has been the leading investor in robotics in the United States for decades. Many of today's most recognizable robots, like iRobot's PackBot, a bomb disposal robot used in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Roomba, the vacuum cleaner robot, can be credited to DARPA. Data Mining: In the days after 9/11, the agency was responsible for creating one of the most high profile and controversial data-mining projects, called Total Information Awareness. The project was designed to trawl through large amounts of data, from car rental records to intelligence reports, to ferret out domestic terrorists. It was accused of being an Orwellian spy program and the work was moved to the National Security Agency. Presidential Protection: After the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the agency ran a top-secret project to protect the president. Though many of its ideas were rejected as too fanciful, like a proposal to protect the president with a mirage-producing system, DARPA was responsible for the first armored presidential limousine. Neuroengineering: DARPA in the 1970s helped lay the foundation for Brain-Computer Interface (brain-driven computers), imagining a future where humans could control machines, like drones, with nothing more than their minds. Today, DARPA is working on neural chips designed to help those with brain injuries recover memories and prosthetics controlled directly by the brain. Satellites: Created in 1958 as the nation's first space agency, it was responsible for developing the first communications satellite and first spy satellite. The agency also played a brief but critical role in sponsoring the Transit satellite, which led to the Global Positioning System. Lessons From DARPA Success Sharon shared three lessons from the success from DARPA: Price of Success is Failure: Be willing to try, fail and then learn from it.

The space age began on October 4, 1957, when the Soviet Union launched Sputnik-the first artificial satellite. Around the world, millions of people tuned their radios to hear it beeping or waited outside to watch it pass overhead. Narrated by Roger Launius of the Space History Division of the National Air and Space Museum, this piece examines the world's reaction to Sputnik. From popular music to visual design; from politics to technology, the space race seemed to define much of the culture of the late 1950s and the 1960s.
