80 BizEd MAY | JUNE 2015 word for word "Transformative change is a team sport." —DAVID POTTRUCK, STACKING THE DECK "All change and every new technology has been greeted with fear and the wringing of hands. For example, when trains first became a common means of human transportation, newspaper articles deplored the likely epidemic of brain damage the swaying movements of the train would cause." —EDWARD HALLOWELL, DRIVEN TO DISTRACTION AT WORK "Given that half the workforce is made up of women, most enterprises across all stakeholder groups have a meaningful contingent of women stakeholders who arguably, and increasingly, need to feel represented in the boardroom." —NANCY CALDERON AND SUSAN STAUTBERG, WOMEN ON BOARD "BUT 'I'M NOT A DESIGNER,' I HEAR YOU SAY. YES, YOU ARE. BUSINESS IS DESIGN. RELIGION IS DESIGN. BEING IN THIS ROOM TOGETHER IS DESIGN. CONVERSATION IS DESIGN. OPTIMISM IS DESIGN. ACTION IS DESIGN. ALL OF THOSE THINGS ARE DESIGN. DESIGN ISN'T ABOUT MAKING SOMETHING LOOK PRETTY. DESIGN IS CREATING CHANGE." —PAUL BENNETT, CHIEF CREATIVE OFFICER AT THE CALIFORNIA-BASED DESIGN CONSULTING FIRM IDEO, FROM A TALK AT NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY'S KELLOGG SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT IN EVANSTON, ILLINOIS "Social entrepreneurship is a hot topic that has diŠerent meaning to diŠerent people. … There's a tendency for people to automatically think social entrepreneurship is a nonprofit venture, but it's really about innovation and creating businesses that solve social problems. There's no shame in making a profit. If anything, many of our entrepreneurs have found that the more money they make, the more good they can do." —JERRY WHITE, DIRECTOR OF THE CARUTH INSTITUTE FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP AT SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY'S COX SCHOOL OF BUSINESS IN DALLAS, TEXAS, IN A RECENT ISSUE OF SMU'S COX TODAY MAGAZINE
