What could Steve Jobs, the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, and Voting have in common? You'd be surprised!
My guest on this show is Steve Niemeyer, a math teacher at Benjamin Franklin High School. He recently conducted an impromptu 'experiment' at our morning assembly that he hosted. Mr. Niemeyer demonstrated how a very small percentage of people end up making decisions on behalf of the majority, especially if the majority is apathetic, doesn't voice their opinion, or exercise their civic right. The larger point was to inspire young people to expand their circle of influence.
There's a wonderful anecdote about how Steve Jobs used to do this with his employees - a story I learned this from a guest speaker in my class who had worked at Apple.
As for that law of thermodynamics, you've got to listen how only a math teacher could put it in context!
