Rethinking the Divide: Public, Private, and the Future of Education | Cyndi McLeod | TEDxUNF

What if the biggest challenge facing higher education in Canada isn’t quality, but imagination? In this talk, Cyndi McLeod examines the long-standing divide between public and private institutions and positions it as the wrong conversation for a rapidly changing world. As new models of learning emerge and workforce needs evolve, she makes the case for a more diverse and adaptive system - one designed not for the past, but for the future. Cyndi McLeod is an award-winning global education leader recognized for her visionary approach to international collaboration, digital transformation, brand development, and transnational education.
Recipient of the prestigious King Charles III Coronation Medal for her service to Canada through international education and an Honorary Doctorate in Business Administration for Educational Leadership, she has dedicated over three decades to advancing the transformative power of education across continents.
As CEO of Global University Systems (GUS) North America, Cyndi leads a dynamic network of institutions including University Canada West (UCW) and the University of Niagara Falls Canada (UNF), both designed to deliver industry relevant programs aligned with global economic diversification and human capital development.
A passionate advocate for equity and empowerment, she co-founded Global Women in Education (GLOW Ed) to advance women’s leadership across the sector. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
