CHANGE.
It’s the new constant.
We become powerful when we collectively,
step away from the status quo,
Address real biases,
Make data work,
Respect cultural differences,
Abandon the superficial,
Empower the success of others,
Take on a local perspective,
Look beyond the obvious,
Scrap the old paradigm of thought.
