WEBVTT - Force Multiplier: Where Action Meets Impact

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:04.519
<v Speaker 1>Hi. I'm Baryton day Thurston, host of the new podcast

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:08.160
<v Speaker 1>Forced Multiplier. When I was a kid, my favorite cartoon

0:00:08.320 --> 0:00:12.840
<v Speaker 1>was Vultron Defenders of the Universe. I love these individuals

0:00:12.880 --> 0:00:16.680
<v Speaker 1>combining to form a much more powerful entity. This podcast

0:00:16.760 --> 0:00:20.560
<v Speaker 1>kind of reminds me of Vultron. Force Multiplier is about

0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:22.800
<v Speaker 1>leveling up the impact we can have in the world

0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:27.720
<v Speaker 1>through our relationships. Whether we're talking about health and equity, nutrition, insecurity,

0:00:27.800 --> 0:00:33.560
<v Speaker 1>or racism, We're facing unprecedented challenges that require unprecedented collaboration.

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:38.199
<v Speaker 1>It's undeniable that businesses have the resources and power to

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:41.600
<v Speaker 1>change the world, and increasingly we expect them to benefit

0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 1>the entire community they were part of, employees, customers, partners,

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:50.159
<v Speaker 1>and the planet. The business alone should not determine the

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 1>fate of the world. Nonprofits, schools, and philanthropy play an

0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:58.760
<v Speaker 1>important role in serving communities and are most effective when

0:00:58.760 --> 0:01:01.640
<v Speaker 1>the solutions they offer are powered by the real life

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 1>experiences of people closest to the problem. From building scalable

0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:09.520
<v Speaker 1>programs to finding new ways to fundraise, organizations we rely

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:12.560
<v Speaker 1>on to further social impact are having to adapt at

0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:16.320
<v Speaker 1>a record pace. When you combine these forces with the

0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:19.760
<v Speaker 1>power of technology to scale and move at speed. We

0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:22.920
<v Speaker 1>multiply our impact, which we kind of have to do

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:26.560
<v Speaker 1>because the challenges we face today are way too big

0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:30.440
<v Speaker 1>for any one person, one organization, one government, or one

0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:34.280
<v Speaker 1>sector to tackle all by itself. So join me as

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:36.880
<v Speaker 1>I sit with leaders from across the public, private, and

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>nonprofit world who are forging partnerships to take action on

<v Speaker 1>some of the toughest challenges facing us today. Maybe you'll
