      Gary Marx discusses his experiences working with ASCD educators.
      "Whenever I do presentations for ASCD educators, and that's fairly often, I'm encouraged about the future. People who are intensely involved in ASCD are seekers. They spend very little of their time defending the status quo. Instead, they are open to ideas. They want to be in touch with trends and issues. They know that true educators, whatever their roles, have the huge responsibility of preparing their schools, their students, and their communities for a fast-changing world. They know very well that meeting the education needs of the whole child is more than a yearlong program. It is a lifetime commitment."

      Gary Marx, CAE, APR, is president of the Center for Public Outreach (CPO), in Vienna, Virginia, an organization he founded in 1998. CPO provides counsel on future-oriented leadership, communication, education, community, and democracy.
