Social entrepreneurs are married to a vision of, for example, a better way of helping young people grow up or of delivering global healthcare. They simply will not stop because they cannot be happy until their vision becomes the new pattern.

If everyone is a changemaker, there's no way a problem can outrun a solution

The one single factor that determines society’s success is the percentage of change-makers within it.

An entrepreneur is someone who brings a pattern change.

Listening is understanding. The skill of empathy is a must to be able to listen...One can listen better if one sees the whole.

Organizations must shift away from repetitive-function hierarchies with rules and enforcement and walls. Instead, we must migrate rapidly to becoming a global 'team of teams' that comes together in whatever combination necessary to add the greatest value to the changes underway.

Every successful organization has to make the transition from a world defined primarily by repetition to one primarily defined by change. This is the biggest transformation in the structure of how humans work together since the Agricultural Revolution.
