What an insightful and inspiring talk about system changes and recognizing that it's an ecosystem and not straight line. She is bright, I love her passion and vision.
Inspiring speech!! Very much captures what's missing in the social entrepreneurship sphere! I loved this quote: "Almost every entrepreneurship course and accelerator program ends in some sort of pitch day. Where the students need to pitch their world-changing solution. [...] We're spending more time teaching [students] how to perfect their sales pitch than we are trying to teach them to understand the problem they claim to be trying to solve. And the judges of those contest often know more about business scaling then they do about the impact and social change."
Daniela has pin-pointed a BIG problem with business pitch contests and more importantly nailed that educators focused on "leadership skills" are missing the need for "system change-makers". Every educator and aspiring entrepreneur will benefit from this presentation!!
Excellent talk! :) So refreshing to hear how individuals can change systems with passion, dedication and innovation. I adore Daniela's enthusiasm and passion for her work in this talk. I would definitely be interested to learn more about social entrepreneurial courses at Oxford Said Business School and how they could assist my work.
What an insightful video. I notice how a clear vision took action in a system to make an important change improve the social enterprise where is being applied, not only the enterprise but the world.
wow... thank you for helping me understand the value of a systems changer vs a social entrepreneur. This was an amazing talk. funding for an apprenticeship with a problem. amazing. it's true as a young person who is passionate about social change i have often found I lack knowledge on the system i am trying to change. Understanding the problem is key. nice
When the first time I heard about social enterpreneurship I was wondering what is the different between social enterpreneurship and CSR (Customer Social Resposibility) program? Then I start to research and I get the answer that there is no difference. Then I keep start finding the answer by books and internet till right now. I still believe that the real answer is about building collective community and measure more than just money. Now I started a free public class find a wilingness academic lecturer to teach about philosophy, politics, and critical thinking. And I try join any collective education communites.

A very interesting talk - just wish you’d keep the Interpreter on screen so this motivating speech could be seen and heard by everyone. I can say from experience this is definitely a social area that needs more change.
@@EnglishSquared Hi, Thanks for being curios :-) Subtitles are helpful. But they are most helpful to people who are hard of hearing. Profoundly Deaf people, who use sign language to communicate, do not always have a strong grasp on English. This is because sign language is their native language (and it is an actual structured language that differs grammatically from English) and therefore English would be their second language. Its like being an English speaker and watching French subtitles after only studying French in school, you can get some of it and it helps, but its not the same as having access to the information in your native language. Hope that helps clarify things? :-)
@@alisonkingston6506 Thanks for the clarification. I had no idea. So, some ways to resolve the situation would be to have the signer stand alongside the speaker, or have a separate camera for the signer and have them displayed continuously (in a box at the bottom of the screen). Is the issue of reading skills changing with the newer generations?
