John: Thanks for having me, Spiffy. In light of today’s global challenges, a different kind of business leader is needed. If we want to change the way business is managed, then we must change the way it is taught. PRME works to help business and management schools prepare students to address the world’s crises by transforming knowledge, practice, and skills.

Elpida Kokkota: Opening up Educational Opportunities for Women

Elpida: Thanks for having me, Spiffy. The World Health Organization says that 736 million women all over the world are at risk. We help women in vulnerable communities across the world get an education that's easier to understand and use. We give them a chance to learn and get a special diploma from the Ivy League school—Cornell University. This helps them have more opportunities to earn money and improves their tough situations. Our goal is to make sure women in faraway places can learn skills that make their lives better by giving them more self-confidence, freedom, and a better place in society.
