When we launched If WeRanTheWorld, I said to my team, I want us to innovate in every aspect of how we design and operate this as a business venture, as much as the web platform itself - because I want us to design our own startup around the working lives that we would all like to live. Women and men alike.

I have a low tolerance for people who complain about things but never do anything to change them. This led me to conclude that the single largest pool of untapped natural resources in this world is human good intentions that are never translated into actions.

If I ran the world, I would find a way to bring the wealth of human good intentions and corporate good intentions together - to activate them collectively into shared action against shared objectives that produces shared hard, tangible results.

I had a high-flying career. Never wanted to get married. All I wanted to do was have some fun.

There was no active, conscious decision-making point, just a gradual realization over time that I'm very happy minus children and marriage.

I realized relatively early on that I had no desire to be a mother whatsoever. I actually love children, but specifically other people's.

I design my start-up ventures around my own personal beliefs and values.
