Book Launch Event: "Partnering" by Jean Oelwang

This evening, I'll be joining Jean Oelwang, author of the new book, Partnering: Forge the Deep Connections That Make Great Things Happen, along with Jacqueline Novogratz, Chris Anderson, Simon Sinek, Sarah Kay, Phil Kaye, and Morley – for a live-streamed event on YouTube at 7:20 pm (EST): https://youtu.be/Dk4UlZqahQk

Coinciding with International Women’s Day, the celebration will shine a spotlight on partnerships that have helped women thrive and make great things happen.

As the President and founding CEO of Virgin Unite and the co-founder of Plus Wonder, Jean Oelwang has had a ringside seat to remarkable people and has learned how they build deep business and personal relationships.

I'm so thrilled to be featured in Partnering, alongside 60+ impactful partnerships, including President and Rosalynn Carter, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Leah Tutu, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, and a host of others, who have forged deep connections to make great things happen. 

All proceeds from the book will go to support the work of the Plus Wonder nonprofit. Partnering is an antidote to a disconnected and divided world. It is the answer to how we can increase depth and meaning in all of our most important relationships.

Virtual Conversation: Moral Imagination in Crisis with Jacqueline Novogratz | The Carter Center

Join us May 20 at 1:30 PM ET for a virtual conversation between Jacqueline Novogratz and Pat Mitchell about Novogratz’s latest book, "Manifesto for a Moral Revolution: Practices to Build a Better World." Hosted by The Carter Center.

The discussion will address how we all might use this moment of uncertainty to enact a moral revolution – one that asks us to move from a system that puts profit at its center to one that insists on humanity and the earth at its center.

As this timely book makes its way to readers, an international pandemic has thrown into sharp relief the gaping wounds of our era, from a broken health system to climate change and skyrocketing inequality and growing divisiveness.

Our existing institutions have run their course, but we have yet to reimagine new ones to replace them in an interdependent world.
