After more than fifteen years of trying to be mostly helpful by providing technical advice and support to a wide range of citizen sector organizations, I find myself continually impressed by the people I meet and by how open are to change, and how willing they are to adopt (and adapt!) new technologies to advance their goals. Having made a lifelong occupation of being the person who helps develop and deploy new technology in organizations, that's what I have come to do at Ashoka. And as a trend-setting organization with globe-spanning and wide-ranging impact, I look forward to the unique opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.
