The Author

Carlos Carpizo is a former technology executive, now entrepreneur passionate about social innovation. He is a GenXer. Mexican by birth and Texan by choice. Proud parent of two GenZers or iGens. His mission is to increase economic growth and social inclusion for young adults in disadvantaged areas of North America (US & Mexico). Carlos is well known by his friends and family for being a failed artist so they’re grateful he was born in an era where he could put his abilities in the high technology space to good use. His boys, now men, are proud of him for having gotten his OCD and CEO style under control at home. His newfound best pal is his ‘grandpup’ Pookie.

The book

At Risk of Greatness is a book about a movement that is using new approaches to developing 21st century skills and abilities and, with it, a better life for disengaged young adults and communities. In this book, you’ll learn:

• About the importance of art to maintain our humanity in this age of accelerations and its intersection with technology.

• How smartphones are creating a slingshot effect with advanced technology.

• That a success mindset is vital to growth, regardless of your background.

• It’s not mandatory to go to college to achieve success in the 21st century as many alternative paths exist beyond a “traditional education.”

The book At Risk of Greatness will challenge you to think outside of the box when looking at our education systems and consider exciting alternatives to transform your community and the lives of young people.
