“
IMPACT
Ashoka Fellows [are] exemplars of social entrepreneurship. The work of these top-tier social entrepreneurs has consistently shaped public policy; steered cultural norms; and transformed industries from power generation to car sharing. Taken together, the values, tactics, and attributes of these entrepreneurs give us a clearer view of what makes it possible for companies to have a successful social impact.”
Drayton, who ... maintains an air of youthful informality ... says the colossal changes we are living are creating two-speed societies. Compared to those of us who have received the necessary education to contribute to the development of today's hyperconnected world, and to bring about changes, those who lack the necessary skills are at risk of a bitter and dangerous marginalization.”
“
The one single factor that determines society's success is the percentage of changemakers within it.”
Bill Drayton
