Your Voice Has Power...How Will You Use It?

"We take so many things for granted until we experience loss. We believe that we will be treated fairly until we are treated unfairly. We believe that surely people will be held accountable for their misdeeds until they are not prosecuted.

We believe that our one voice will not make a difference until our voice is the first thing we can use to make a difference."

--Nona O., Founder, womenatliberty.com

Our True North...Elizabeth Dole

"We believe in the dignity of every life, the possibility of every mind, the divinity of every soul. This is our true North."

#LeadershipTuesdays: When Its Okay To Be Inpatient...Ursula Burns

“We all need to be more impatient with the status quo. I believe we all need to shift the emphasis of our thinking -- from why we can't create more jobs to how we can create more jobs… from why we can't compete to how we can compete… from why hunger, poverty and injustice exists in the world to how they can be eliminated...In other words, we all need to be a little more impatient.”*

--Ursula Burns, Chairwoman and CEO, Xerox
