Leaving Microsoft to Change the World by John Wood
In 1998 John Wood was a rising executive at Microsoft . Then a trip to Nepal inspired him to set up schools and libraries in the developing world."Wood is obsessed with putting to work the business practices he learnt at Microsoft… melding 'the compassion of Mother Teresa' with 'the focus and tenacity of a blue-chip company'" Financial Times
John spent most of his career running significant parts of Microsoft’s international business. At age 35, he chose to leave Microsoft in the middle of his career to focus on bringing educational opportunities to poor communities. His passion is to combine the lessons he learned in business with the compassion and service ethic found in the non-profit arena. John holds a B.S. from the University of Colorado and a MBA from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management.
