Going Deep with Ginni Rometty on Purpose

Kelly Corrigan Wonders ·

2023/10/24

I loved being with Ginni Rometty. She is full of insight and clearly oriented toward world-positive work. I was also taken with her midwestern charm and candor. Emerging from a tricky childhood, she found herself running IBM in a time when very few women were commanding boardrooms (a statement that is maddeningly still applicable today). Now, she is entirely devoted to making good careers available to many more people, and her plan is working. This is a conversation for anyone who

Kelly Corrigan Wonders ·

2023/10/17

When my daughter was in high school, she read a Pulitzer prize winning book called Evicted and was blown away by how easy it is to become homeless in her country. Years later, I was at one of those thinking weekend festival things (Chautauqua) and listened to the Evicted author speak. Matthew Desmond gave the best talk I had ever heard in my life, and I have heard a lot.

Kelly Corrigan Wonders ·

2023/09/24

Sherri Coale wrote a deeply-felt “you got this” letter to her son Colton in the days before his wedding. She was certain that if she tried to say all of the important things she wanted him to know, “nonsensical drivel wrapped in tears, would land in his lap”. So, she sat down and wrote him this loving, sage advice-filled letter. This is a great GOTO to share with any young couple you may know…and maybe even your partner.
