Synergy
is broadcasting a
series of monthly interviews with Christian
leaders we want
our Synergy
Community to know and people well
known to us from whom we
want to
hear more. You'll hear each webcast live, in video format,
a
significant
thought-leader
who will inspire, challenge our thinking, and keep us better informed.
Our
first guest was Chai Ling,
who just released
her memoir, A Heart for Freedom.
Commander-in-chief of
student
protesters at Tiananmen Square in 1989, Ling quickly found
herself on
China's "most wanted" list, forcing her to flee
China and eventually to
make her home
in the U.S. After graduating from
Harvard
Business School, she |
|
 |
founded Jenzabar
a leading provider of software and services to colleges and
universities.
What
is breathtaking about her story (and of
particular relevance
to us) is how Ling evolved as a leader against all odds.
Not only did
she overcome cultural conditioning and family pressure that
would have held her back from answering God's call on her heart, she
emerged as a
global leader, business entrepreneur, passionate follower of Jesus, and
courageous
social activist—taking on the Chinese government's One Child
Policy no less with
her AllGirlsAllowed
organization. And she did it solo and in a foreign
country!
You need to hear this ezer's
story!
