What exactly is a global mindset? How do you know if someone has one? More importantly, can you teach a student to have a global mindset? In this episode, Mark and Dennis are joined by Stewart Mills (yes, he does sound like James Bond) as they unpack the idea of what it takes to have a global mindset and what teachers can do to help their students have one.

Stewart Mills has worked in the Caribbean, Africa , South and  North America managing both multilateral and bilateral development programmes. He lived and worked in fifteen countries gaining wide experience in strategy and policy formation in many cultural contexts. Stewart’s  postings and secondments have included; working on the Executive Boards  of the World Bank, African  Development Bank and  the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB) in Washington. Stewart also  worked  as a member of the UK negotiating team for the  creation of the Global Environmental Facility and  also worked with IADB colleagues on the Climate Investment Fund. Stewart worked for the European Commission  in Brussels for 6 years as the G8 and G20 Coordinator  for Development Issues. Working with the European  Commission included  providing policy advice   on the creation of the €50  Billion  EU External Investment Plan.
