Why New Zealand needs more C students, good all-rounders
BODY:
Derek McCormack is the Vice-Chancellor of AUT, the Auckland University of Technology. He says students and universities need to be focusing not just on academic results but also on graduates having a range of 'C-skills'. He says employers are increasingly wanting people who are strong in a number of fields, including communication, creativity, curiosity, collaboration, cooperation and caring within a sense of community.
EXTENDED BODY:
Good all-round life skills are as important to employers as grades, an Auckland academic says.
Auckland University of Technology vice-chancellor, Derek McCormack, said a survey of Auckland's top employers found that grades were only one factor they looked for when hiring graduates.
The industry types surveyed included banks, law firms, primary industry leaders and local government.
"I'm not really saying that students should only get C's at university, obviously getting good grades is a good aspiration to have. But I'm suggesting that the real value of your university education comes from things like; creativity, curiosity, carefulness, collaboration, ability and communication, critical reasoning, context awareness, cultural competence and coping with complexity.
"These are the sort of skills that are likely to make you useful in a practice setting, in an enterprise, in employment," he said.
Mr McCormack said employers were looking for team players, who produced high quality work - traits that could be hard to measure.
"So sometimes good grades are a proxy, and that will be the first base that people go for. Some of the big international employers don't worry about what grades you've got at university and they have their own tests, where they look for these sort of qualities. Companies like Google, Facebook and Apple."
He said at AUT they were looking to provide students with as many opportunities as possible within their course.
"In business, or indeed in visual arts, students are asked from a very early part of their course to stand up the front, explain things, receive criticism, to participate in the critique of others. So there's an interaction," he said.
Mr McCormack said no one could predict the sort of job opportunities that would be around in 5 to10 years.
"Some of the job opportunities we can't even imagine. And so that again, is where these C skills are so important, because they are likely to be valuable as the future changes the world because they can be transferred from one employment and practice setting to another," he said.
Derek McCormack spoke to Kathryn Ryan on Nine to Noon.

Never Enough - Michael D'Antonio
BODY:
They're calling it the summer of Trump in the United States. Donald Trump is at the top of the polls in a crowded field of people who want to be the Republican candidate for president. That doesn't surprise former Newsday reporter and author Michael D'Antonio. He explains why the property developer's self absorbed, self promoting style is so popular among some Americans in his new book: "Never Enough: Donald Trump and the Pursuit of Success". .
EXTENDED BODY:
Donald Trump's bid to be the Republican Party’s nominee for President comes from a personal dislike for the standing US President, according to Pulitzer Prize winning author Michael D’Antonio.
The reality TV star and property tycoon “has a real and genuine antipathy for Barack Obama", he told Radio New Zealand's Jesse Mulligan. "I think he would love to take the keys to the White House with him going in and Obama coming out.”
D'Antonio details Trump's rise in business and politics in his new book Never Enough: Donald Trump and the Pursuit of Success.
Name recognition is part of what has elevated Donald Trump to the position of front-runner in the race to be the Republican Party’s nominee in a field of more than a dozen, D’Antonio says. “He represents the worst of a culture that is besotted with reality TV, that has elevated greed above almost every value. It’s amazing how fame governs all now and Donald saw that in the 1970s. If you become famous, you could convert it to billions and he did it.”
Some of the other candidates in the field have started to take on Trump, but D’Antonio says only one has managed to get under his skin, neurosurgeon Ben Carson. “Carson’s not a fighter and Donald doesn’t know what to do with someone who doesn’t fight.”
Trump initially cooperated with D’Antonio for his book, but then withdrew his support and his access. The author says this is part of Trump’s modus operandi and one the Republican Party has to be wary of. “He always leaves himself a trapdoor, a way out. He’s pledged to be loyal to the Republican Party with the caveat they must treat him fairly. Anyone who has ever been a child and argued with playmates knows it’s easy to say no fair.”
Despite his money and fame, D’Antonio believes there is a sad side to the billionaire. Ivanka Trump, Donald’s ex-wife, talked to him for the book. “The truth is she never figured him out. She was married him for 15 years and has known him for 40 years and still doesn’t feel like she knows him, That is so sad to me to not be known to the people who you’ve spent the most time with. It’s almost tragic.”

When do we take responsibility for our own lives and at what moment do we become adults? Renee Liang, Playwright

When you’re a teenager and you’ve got cancer, humour is one way to cope.
The theatre production The Quiet Room is a darkly humourous, but uplifting, story about a teenager grappling with leukaemia, that has just opened at BATS theatre in Wellington in partnership with Canteen, an organisation supporting youth with cancer.
I’m in the intimate studio space at BATS recording the cast and crew in action before their big night. While dodging bits of hospital equipment (props) and a wheelchair I ask the cast their thoughts on each of their characters.
Stevie Hancox-Monk plays central character Marianne - a teenager dealing with life and death questions before her time.
"I really admire her strength and resilience with such an illness, she’s admirable. I think it’s about quality of life rather than quantity of life.
"My Dad's had cancer twice and my mum used to make jokes all the time, the only way to cope was to make jokes about it."
Marianne’s upcoming 16th birthday is coloured by the fact that she is legally able to make her own decisions about her medical treatment.
“But her mother and doctor have their own opinions. And then there’s Philip, the cute guy in the next hospital bed…”
The lighter moments of comedy are delivered by the teenage protagonists, such as Philip who is played by Wellington actor Michael Hebenton.
"I met one of the Canteen members Mona- he was really cool. I asked what they wanted to see on stage because their stories are really empowering. He was telling me they often make dark jokes, I asked permission and he said go for it mate, go hard."
Both the writer and director are Asian New Zealanders bringing their personal stories to this play. Director Jane Yonge, who created the recent Capital 150 Wellington Anniversary hit Page Turners, lost her own mother to breast cancer.
"It was a slow battle. It was all the waiting around, interminable waiting in hospital waiting rooms watching my mother die. That’s what I wanted to convey somehow with the staging, with actors ever present throughout, waiting on the sidelines.
"Sickness turns relationships into something more intense."
The Quiet Room was a finalist for the Adam Awards 2013 and winner of Playmarket’s Plays for the Young 2014. Playwright Renee Liang wrote this piece from her personal experiences a pediatrician with Starship Children’s Hospital in Auckland.
“I was inspired to write this play by my work as a paediatrician,” Liang says.
"I wanted to work through the big questions in life, some of the big calls that are not always ours to make, the life and death questions.
"At what stage do you as a mother or as a professional trust someone to make their own decisions about their life? For me the play is about agency - taking control of your life, in the context as a teenager.
"In popular culture hospitals are hardly ever portrayed the way they really are in reality. Doctors are stereotyped as god-like and cold, they're not. I'm trying to break down some of these ideas."
The play is set at Star ship Children’s Hospital in Auckland Vanessa Rhodes plays Dr Elaine Leigh, a paediatric oncologist.
Vanessa tells me her character is a workaholic and that during the work-shopping of the play it was invaluable to have Renee as playwright. Vanessa found that there were many more grey areas within the current medical treatment of seriously ill patients and this came as a bit of shock to her.
Trained at Rada in London, Isobel Moebus plays Rachel, Marianne’s mother. Isobel is a mother of teenagers herself and she tells me she could really relate to the struggles experienced by this character, a single working mother facing the loss of her daughter.
$2 from every ticket sold goes to Canteen, an organisation which supports young New Zealanders living with cancer through peer support programmes, counselling, leadership development, recreational activities and much more. Further funds will be raised at a gala evening, which will include an opportunity to hear true stories of cancer first hand from teenagers.
Canteen members are supporting the creative team and actors by advising and feeding back on rehearsals, and getting involved backstage.
Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep a poem from the 1930’s by Mary Elizabeth Frye is set to music by Thomas Lambert, it’s also the theme song for The Quiet Room performed by Stevie Hancox-Monk.
And The Quiet Room will perform at BATS theatre, Wellington until 3 October and the book Cancer and all that other shit written by Lauren Wepa, a young cancer survivor was launched at a special event at BATS in tandem with the play is available at booksellers now.
It’s a way to look at the subject from a different angle, to tell the story differently. Our young people will be excited to see their lives reflected on stage, and we are happy to help make this show authentic.

They're calling it the summer of Trump in the United States. Donald Trump is at the top of the polls in a crowded field of people who want to be the Republican candidate for president. That doesn't surprise former Newsday reporter and author Michael D'Antonio. He explains why the property developer's self absorbed, self promoting style is so popular among some Americans in his new book: "Never Enough: Donald Trump and the Pursuit of Success". .

The Panel with Wendyl Nissen and Gary McCormick (Part 1)
BODY:
What the Panelists Wendyl Nissen and Gary McCormick and have been up to. A teenager from West Auckland was held in police cells for four days because Child, Youth and Family couldn't find a bed for her. Families whose children come to the attention of authorities may be stopped from having more children by the Government. Substandard smoke alarms which can fail to sound in time for residents to escape house fires should be banned in Australia, according to their Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, the CSIRO. It's testifying in front of a Senate committee.

The Panel with Wendyl Nissen and Gary McCormick (Part 2)
BODY:
A study out of Stanford & Harvard, meta-analysis actually of 228 studies, suggests workplace stress isn't self-imposed, doesn't result from our own lack of dedication to exercise, relaxation techniques, mindfulness. What the Panelists Wendyl Nissen and Gary McCormick have been thinking about. The Rugby World Cup, and the big talking-point of the weekend the magnificent Welsh against the arrogant English, that's the media narrative, albeit a simplistic one and perhaps a wrong one. On Friday we previewed daylight saving and both our panellists were looking forward to it, more outside time. And we noted that in the U.S. approval of it has fallen to 37% and a whole lot of people say they don't see the point of it.
