Responsibility
As founder of Tech It Forward, an innovation hub connecting international companies and investors to the wonderful technologies Israel has to offer, I’ve experienced firsthand the impact of taking responsibility – representing our country in a positive way with every global meeting – showcasing its great minds, innovative solutions and its drive to create change worldwide, despite its political situation..
As a woman, I believe that we also have a responsibility to support and uplift each other. By being each others’ village in today’s busy society, we can create meaningful change and pave the way for a brighter future for our children and especially our daughters.
Israeli writer and Nobel laureate, S.Y. Agnon said, “The only true source of politeness is consideration for others.” For me this quote emphasizes that responsibility and unity go together, and that by considering the needs and perspectives of others, we can build a more just and equitable society.
My advice – let’s embrace our responsibility to support each other, accept each other’s differences, and work together in unity towards a brighter future.
