Success must be redefined to look beyond financial metrics, to instead prioritise social equality and positive change, says Acumen founder and CEO Jacqueline Novogratz.
“Throughout the 20th century, capitalism and technology have served as the engine of innovation and growth, lifting hundreds of millions out of poverty while reinforcing a definition of success based on money, power and fame. But, the 21st century has awakened the world to the downside of those same economic and technological forces, specifically the unsustainable levels of inequality and climate crisis,” says the author of two award-winning books: The Blue Sweater (2010), and Manifesto for a Moral Revolution: Practices to Build a Better World (2020).
