Why are the Finnish schools so damn good, and the one psychological trait that can make you kinda badass too.

A new global league table, produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit for Pearson, has found Finland to be the best education system in the world!

For Emilia Elisabeth Lahti M.S.Sc., M.A.P.P, positive psychology researcher, that's no surprise. Lahti's research has identified the ONE psychological trait in Finnish culture which has contributed to it's astronomical success. Here I jam with Emilia as she defines the exact psychological trait of finnish success, and shares some insight on how we can incorporate some Finish stardom, sans skiing to work and a pet polar bear. Her research has captured the fascination of many, including writers from Scientific American, The Creativity Post and Business Insider.
