You don't have to be a CEO to be a leader

Alex Budak is a faculty member at UC Berkeley, co-founder of StartSomeGood, and the author of Becoming a Changemaker. He teaches, speaks and writes to make leadership more attainable, change more positive, and impact more inclusive. At UC Berkeley, Budak created and teaches his transformational changemaker curriculum to undergraduates, graduates and executives, and directs the Berkeley Haas Global Access Program. A social entrepreneur at heart, he co-founded StartSomeGood, which has helped more than 1,200 changemakers in 50 countries raise millions of dollars to launch and scale new change initiatives. His book, Becoming a Changemaker, has been endorsed by Nobel Prize winners, Olympic athletes, and most meaningfully of all – by his former students who are using these ideas to change the world.
