“In a keynote address from Jean Oelwang, President of Virgin Unite, we were reminded of the power of relationships in accelerating progress for people and our planet.

Jean is an accessible, deeply knowledgeable and thoughtful speaker who provided powerful stories of relationships that have changed the world, weaving values of togetherness, partnership, collaboration and friendship as central tenets of this collective work.

We are grateful and honored to have hosted Jean Oelwang on stage this year.”

Paula Berezin, Social Capital Partnerships

Rebecca Blanchette, Park City Community Foundation

“Thank you for sharing your thoughts and beautiful book. Love the words of wisdom about partnerships – shared passions and better together.”

The Governance Institute

“It was a terrific conversation and engaged the attendees really well. Fantastic.”

“Jean has a quiet calm that is also a force. She led us through a journey that inspired our audience to consider what opportunities they had to build and deepen partnerships and got us curious to ask “What opportunities are we leaving on the table that could be game changers?”.

Our eyes were opened to the power each of us has to connect with others and create positive impact in the world.”
Abby Schwalb, Vice President of Programs, Conscious Capitalism

“We haven’t stopped talking about it.”
