Description

In Becoming a Changemaker, Alex Budak provides a fresh, inspiring and research-backed guide to developing the mindsets and leadership skills needed to navigate, shape, and lead change and to make a positive impact in our lives, career, and communities.

Through a diverse series of case studies, and brand new insights from his original research on the traits the most successful changemakers have in common, Alex provides an actionable, inclusive guide for people of all backgrounds, levels, ages, and industries to get unstuck and to start leading change from wherever they are.

The book is based on Budak's wildly-popular class of the same name at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business that changemakers like Olympic athlete Alicia Wilson describe as "life changing." Accessible and energizing concepts like Microleadership show how each of us can lead from where we are, and principles like "Confidence without Attitude," "Question the Status Quo," and "Beyond Yourself'' provide a framework for stepping into our own unique changemaker potential.
About Alex Budak
Alex Budak is a social entrepreneur and faculty member at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, where he created and teaches the transformative course, “Becoming a Changemaker.” Regularly one of Haas’s highest rated offerings, it is the first university course in the US created specifically for changemakers to learn mindsets and leadership skills for positive change across sectors and disciplines. A Silicon Valley native, Budak helped Change.org raise $30 million from impact investors, and co-founded and now advises the social enterprise StartSomeGood.com, which has helped over 1,000 changemakers in 50 countries raise over $10 million. He has written about leadership for Fast Company and the Guardian, lectured on social entrepreneurship in venues ranging from the White House to the World Bank, from Cambodia to Ukraine to the Arctic Circle, and his work as a changemaker and educator has been featured in publications including Forbes and the Washington Post. Budak lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife Rebecca.
