I to the Power of We
Making a Transformational Impact in the World

©2012 LinkedIn Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
“I to the Power of We” is a phrase
we hear a lot at LinkedIn.
It’s about how the individual, with the power of their team,
their relationships and connections, can be successful in a
way they simply couldn’t be on their own.
It’s a value that we not only talk about – but one that I
experienced in an incredibly moving way.

My Story of Transformation Started Here….
 LinkedIn offered a transformation grant (up to $3,000) for
something that would transform yourself, transform your family or
transform your community
 I applied for the grant to plan a 5K fundraiser fun run I had been
planning in San Francisco for the past 10 years
– The run benefits the Fred Gabler Helping Hand Camp Fund, a nonprofit hat sends underprivileged kids to camp
– Fred was a friend of mine from summer camp who was killed on 9/11
– I plan the race every year to honor his memory & raise $ to send kids
to camp

 I was awarded the grant! 

The 11th annual event
was scheduled for 11/11/12
in San Francisco

What happened next,
was beyond my wildest dreams.

I was asked to tell my story
at LinkedIn’s Global Sales Kickoff event
in front of 1000 colleagues…

…and everyone was so inspired they asked me:
“How can we help?”
“How can we get involved?”
“What can we do?”
and as a result…

My event went global!

“We were all Americans that day.
If we can take something that was such a
tragedy & turn it into something positive –
I am here to help.”

On November 11, 2012 at 11am,
the 5k fun run took place in 16 cities across the world,
lead by my LinkedIn colleagues in each location.
