In an era where artificial intelligence is no longer fiction but function, the world isn’t just asking for specialists, it’s demanding generalists with vision. We are entering a time where ideas matter more than instructions, and those who thrive will be the ones connecting dots across disciplines, not just digging deeper into one.
With one foot in education and the other in entrepreneurial innovation, I see the AI wave not with fear, but with fascination. AI may replace tasks, but it cannot replace judgment, synthesis, empathy, or purpose. That’s where the entrepreneur-generalist steps in.
Gone are the days when your job title defined you. Today, you might be an educator in the morning, a product designer by noon, a storyteller by evening, and a policy thinker by night. The modern professional is fluid. The most successful ones are multilingual in function, fluent in data, in human behaviour, in context.
At ST Kabir School, we’ve built more than just classrooms; we’ve created a thinking space. We nurture not only academic excellence but also design intelligence, strategy, and resilience. In the age of AI, your real résumé isn’t your degree; It’s your bounce-back rate. Can you learn fast, unlearn faster, and adapt without panic? These aren’t soft skills required for tomorrow.
The future belongs to those who are comfortable in ambiguity. Entrepreneurs must be adaptive, emotionally intelligent, and strategically bold. That’s why we’ve redesigned learning at our school, going beyond textbooks to teach entrepreneurship, legal thinking, and ethical leadership. Tomorrow’s leaders won’t ask, “What should I do?” but, “What’s worth doing?”
One of the most exciting developments in the corporate world is the rise of the Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) – a role where innovators contribute from within companies. As this role becomes more common, we’re preparing students to step into it someday. Through focused training in strategy, innovation, and problem-solving, we are equipping them to lead, not follow.
“Entrepreneurship today is about more than startups and funding. It’s about owning the responsibility to create change. Whether it’s building a company, a school, or a civic solution, you’re contributing to the soul of the nation. We need generalist visionaries who can work across boundaries, align innovation with values, and speak the language of impact.” said Angad Bindra.
AI will continue to evolve. Machines will keep learning. But the ones who will lead the future are those who know how to think and think fast.
Angad Bindra is an educator and entrepreneur and working as Head of Strategy at ST Kabir Public School Karnal turning the School into a launchpad for future innovators.
