Social Innovation at RCTS

How does one change the world?

This is the question Assaf Weisz has pondered from his upbringing in a Kibbutz in Israel to his studies in Toronto, Canada. And one that we at the Rotary Club of Toronto Skyline were waiting, with baited breath, to hear answered last Tuesday.

An activist, social entrepreneur, youth leader, and co-founder of Purpose Capital, Mr. Weisz has taken it upon himself to create a blank slate for just this task. Free of conventional thought, and fueled by his desire for global transformation, he is actively creating a new and innovative society.

With his awareness that the biggest challenges create the biggest opportunities and supporting social change by providing capital and direction, Mr. Weisz is well poised to make a huge impact on Canada and the world.

So how do you change the world?

Well, as Mr. Weisz wisely said, once you realize the world is changing all the time, the secret is to know how to lead it in the right direction.
