Lecture Description

How do you separate the missionaries from the mercenaries and weed through the overly-passionate?  In the non-profit sector, it can be a challenge, says Christine Benninger, President of the Humane Society Silicon Valley.  It's a difficult balance between personal conviction and compromise, and Benninger points out why it's important to find talent that's both mission-driven and able to work in a team.
