The 19th Annual Kravis-de Roulet Leadership Conference
Leading Social Change: Entrepreneurial Solutions, Cross-Sector Collaborations
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 that requires the participation of all sectors. -- Bill Drayton
A little bit of good can turn into a whole lot of good when fueled by the commitment of a social entrepreneur. -- Jeffrey Skoll
We need social entrepreneurs to help us find new avenues toward social improvement as we enter the next century. -- J Gregory Dees
