Fulbright Seminar

This Friday, I had the honor of sitting on a panel, From Vision to Action, discussing social entrepreneurship to a group of Fulbright students for their seminar here in Providence. 

I was accompanied by my buddy Alan Harlam, Director of Social Entrepreneurship at the Swearer Center who moderated the conversation along with: 

Clay Rockefeller- Founder, The Steelyard

Lorne Adraine- Founder, National Neighborhood Day, along with other successful corporate ventures.

It was great meeting and getting to know Clay and Lorne more over this time and getting to hang out with Alan, who is fantastic. The student audience asked some great questions primarily concerned about: 

• Time Management
  
• Ego- and how to keep it in check
  
• And deciding whether or not to do social entrepreneurship on the side or a full-time jig
  

All really important questions with no simple answers. We talked about following what you are passionate about and humbling yourself to work as a team collectively with the community you are working for. 

It was a very humbling experience to speak to a group of driven passionate students who are already doing amazing things in the world.
