What is Success? | Sean Nosek | TEDxWestVancouverED

Success may not be what you think. Sean’s idea worth spreading is that success may be more of a side effect. Sean Nosek is Director of Instruction, Learning & Innovation with West Vancouver Schools. He was co-chair of DisruptED Vancouver 2014, and was identified by The Learning Partnership in 2014 as one of Canada’s Outstanding PrincipalsTM. Sean is excited by integrative thinking and non-linear approaches to learning. He regularly champions “The Art of Wandering” and believes passionately in adventure. A former literature teacher, Sean is inspired by great works and great ideas. He enjoys being physically active, cutting through alleyways, listening to vinyl and contemplating life’s big questions. You can follow his thinking on Zen for a Crazy World. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
