The only way we really create change is to enter any situation with the humility to listen and to recognize the world as it is, and then the audacity to dream what it could be, to have the patience to start and let the work teach you, to be willing to lead when you need to lead, and to listen. To have a sense of generosity and empathy, but not over-empathy, because accountability is so critical to building solutions that work.

Dignity is more important than wealth.

Very small investments can release the infinite potential that lies in all of us.

It's about all of us, and the kind of world that we, together, want to live in and share.

I think we so often equate leadership with being experts - the leader is supposed to come in and fix things. But in this interconnected world we live in now, it's almost impossible for just one person to do that.

What we really yearn for as human beings is to be visible.

People really don't want handouts, that they want to make their own decisions.
