I am delighted to see the variety of enthusiastic answers to my Davos Video Question on Innovation & Job Creation which was asked at the World Economic Forum 2011. Answers came from Senator John Kerry; CEO of Nasdaq Bob Greifeld; Founder of Ushahadi Juliana Rotich (WEF’s Social Entrepreneur of the Year), Digital CEO of Reputation.com Michael Fertik, and Social Entrepreneur & MIT Award Winner BP Agrawal Subscribe to the blog & view Part Two & Part Three In the coming weeks, I will also be sharing more about my Multimedia Coaching Program “The Art of Career Navigation.” I believe a focus on Innovation, Entrepreneurship & Intrapreneurship (including within large companies) is needed for the economy to move forward, combined with creative ways to think about business in terms of improving the lives of other people. Many thanks to leaders who answered the question. Best wishes from Sandra Rupp. Here is my Video Question:

The Davos Question this year is How Can We Drive Inclusive Economic Growth & Prosperity? (when 80% of the world currently lives on less than $10 a day). My answer includes a 7 Step Plan developed over many years working with leaders. My answer is a 1 minute summary of what I believe is the largest economic opportunity worldwide. 
Top answers will be shared with World Leaders in late January at the World Economic Forum meetings. I am finding my video answer resonates with both men and women. Masculine & Feminine, man or woman, Yin & Yang make a wonderful team! (see a short clip here):
