Changing the World Without Losing Your Mind: A Changemaker Week Event

UC San Diego’s Changemaker Week proudly presents a talk by Alex Counts, founder of the Grameen Foundation and author of “Changing the World Without Losing Your Mind.” Some people are dreamers. They choose a career shaped by dreams of making the world a better place –caring for kids, lifting up the poor and protecting the planet. When your dreams are that powerful, it’s easy to neglect yourself. Both lives and dreams can suffer the consequences. If you’re one of the dreamers, come to hear the author of a new book that Forbes magazine called a “must read” for nonprofit employees. Agenda:

• 5:30 p.m. – Welcoming remarks and talk
• 6:00 p.m. – Q&A with author
• 6:30 p.m. – Booking signing

Drawing on his decades of experience as an acclaimed nonprofit leader, Alex Counts offers practical advice on such vital activities as fundraising, team-building, communications and management. He shows you how to run an organization – and your own life – both effectively and sustainably, giving joyfully to those around you while also caring generously for yourself. Cosponsors: Rady School of Management and International House.
