Two longtime friends, both Canadian – one black, one white, and both men – explore what it looks like to adopt the mindset of an inclusive society. Instead of asking, ”How do we get there?”, Jake and Chris discuss what does it look like to act as if we’re there already.
Jake and Chris are joined by the author of “Becoming a Changemaker’, Alex Budak.
Together, they explore what it means to be a ‘changemaker’, both in terms of how to make change happen in the world but also the internal work required. For example, what role does our own implicit bias play in scaling change at the systemic level as well as leading change through networks?
Besides authoring the book ‘Becoming a Changemaker’, he is a UC Berkeley faculty member and the co-founder of StartSomeGood.com, a platform that helps break down barriers that prevent people from enacting change, helping over 1,000 changemakers in 50 countries raise over $12 Million USD to catalyze new projects.
Budak is driven by the belief that anyone—regardless of title, personality, race, gender, age, or class—can be a changemaker.
