Imagine Leadership

“Imagine Leadership, imagine yourself leading, leadership is an art. Will you be the leader?”

Nitin Nohria and Amanda Pepper of Harvard Business School’s Leadership Initiative collaborated with XPLANE to create this video in order to generate a discussion of the value and importance of leadership to address some of societys most pressing problems.

“It is my desire to inspire people of all ages and social demographics to think about leadership on a broad level, contemplate what it means to them and what individual impact they can have when it comes to leading,” says Nohria.

Yele Haiti and Pro Soccer Player Florent Malouda bring smiles to the children of Haiti

This is a video edit I did of my trip to Port-au-Prince Haiti along with the Yele Haiti volunteer team and Chelsea Football player Florent Malouda. We organized and distributed aid throughout different tent cities in Port-au-Prince and visited some amazing kids at the local orphanage. I hope you keep Haiti in your thoughts and prayers.

Global Giving

GlobalGiving.org enables people to donate to grassroots projects; education, health, microfinance by connecting donors with community based projects that need support. Choose by topic or region, “Vocational Training for 100 Women in Pakistan” for example.  Or, you might donate to Economic Independance for Women in Central America, where  $25 will ‘help fund a loan and training for a poor, indigenous woman in rural Central America, enabling her to start a business, create financial security for her family, and break the cycle of poverty.’

A perfect example of how we can use the web to connect, share and support things that make really make a difference. Kudos to everyone over at GlobalGiving.org for facilitating truly positive change.
