What if scalable solutions ultimately need to be integrated within a government system? What should be the mindset of leaders as they explore government partnerships?

To explore these topics and share wisdom from an extensive career in public service, finance, business, and technology is the CEO of the Skoll Foundation, Don Gips.

With equity at the center of its evolving strategy, the Skoll Foundation seeks to shift the trajectory of urgent global challenges including health and pandemics, inclusive economies, climate action, effective governance, and racial justice.

In this episode, Don talks about his expansive journey in social change, including lessons on timing and power when working with governments.
