Georgi Enthoven is a thought leader, seasoned entrepreneur, and dedicated advocate for impactful careers. She is a distinguished alumna of the University of California at Berkeley, and Harvard Business School, where she earned her master's in business administration. Her career has been anything but conventional; she often describes it as ‘taking the scenic route” (although, the common thread throughout her career is “meaningful contribution”). Having lived in more than half a dozen countries, including South Africa, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, Mexico and the United States, she treasures a truly global perspective, including the dynamics of emerging markets.
Georgi believes that capitalism is at its tipping point, and careers going forward will need to demonstrate real, positive impact both in one's own community, or globally. Her (forthcoming) book, “Work That’s Worth It,” promises to be a pivotal resource for individuals seeking to design their career to work for them and the world.
