#14 Creating Future Ready Graduates with Les McBeth | What Do They Do?

  • Summary

  • Les McBeth leads special projects for Future Design School. Based around their persona of a future ready graduate Les brings the various projects together across schools, higher education, corporate and community. We discussed the role and how Les got from a small Oil town in Canada to the role via some different degrees, studying in Lancaster, working in Geneva and New York before working for Future Design School.


    Les shared some really interesting stories about picking up roles through less traditional routes that don't match any of your qualifications. From working for Monks and Nuns to finding your perfect role at a party on a convent rooftop, there is lots to enjoy in this episode.


    We are still searching for the RAF base near Lancaster that Dean mentioned!
