Julia Freeland Fisher Biography
Who you know matters, especially when it comes to accessing opportunity. Julia Freeland Fisher believes expanding networks – people’s stock of “social capital” – will be a game changer for future generations’ learners and workers.
A highly regarded expert in education and workforce, Fisher is the author of “Who You Know: Unlocking Innovations That Expand Students’ Networks” (Jossey-Bass, 2018). The book focuses on emerging tools and practices that can deepen and diversify students’ networks to expand their access to opportunities. As the director of research at the Christensen Institute, Fisher has published and spoken extensively on trends in education and human connection and how disruptive innovations will impact students’ networks in the years ahead.
Those themes have newfound resonance in the age of AI, where chatbots could begin to disrupt human connection as we know it. Her recent research, Navigation and Guidance in the Age of AI, offers an in-depth look at how chatbots are transforming college and career guidance. Her upcoming research will focus beyond the classroom, analyzing what’s motivating young people to engage with AI companions in the consumer market, and what it will take to safeguard human relationships in this new era.
Fisher’s research has been featured in The New York Times, Boston Globe, Axios, Harvard Business Review, and Stanford Social Innovation Review. Prior to joining the Institute, she worked at NewSchools Venture Fund, a venture philanthropy organization that supports education entrepreneurs who are transforming public education. She also served as an instructor in the Yale College Seminar Program. Fisher holds a bachelor’s degree from Princeton University and a JD from Yale Law School.

Julia Freeland Fisher Speaking Topics
In this provocative presentation, Julia Freeland Fisher, Director of Education at the Christensen Institute, outlines why AI is on a path to disrupting human connection as we know it – and how technology, education systems, and policy will need to evolve to meet this challenge. Audiences will learn how disruptive innovations take root and scale, and explore how AI could be built to be more prosocial.
What is social capital, why does it matter and how can building it help strengthen professional ties? In this engaging presentation, Director of Education at the Christensen Institute, Julia Freeland Fisher, presents accessible strategies for leveraging new and existing relationships to achieve professional goals. Audiences will learn how social capital gets built, how to create webs of support within existing networks, and how to reciprocate and strengthen ties even more. These simple, actionable steps empower participants to begin bolstering their networks immediately.
Historically, our education system has focused on what students do and don’t know, and ignored almost entirely who they know. The real opportunity gaps are not just knowledge and skill gaps; they are gaps in students’ networks and access to power, argues Julia Freeland Fisher. Who you know matters – a lot. Fisher believes that with the rise of technology, we have an unprecedented opportunity to build a system invested in expanding students’ networks by connecting them to industry experts, mentors and peers otherwise out of reach. With this stronger focus on helping students build social capital, schools and vendors together stand to address chronic challenges that have long plagued education. Fisher delves deep into this missing piece of the education reform conversation, with a particular focus on how technology will help spur the transformation. She explores the opportunities for and responsibilities of schools, vendors, entrepreneurs and investors.
