Travel Preparations for Africa
Joseph Quaderer, a director at Morgan Stanley, is on a 6-month sabbatical teaching Ugandan high school students the necessary skills to start and scale social enterprises - financially sustainable organizations that also address important social problems. “While I’m going to Uganda to teach high school students the basic tenets of entrepreneurship…I know I’ll be doing a lot more learning than teaching,” Joseph says. In his series of blog posts for yourSABBATICAL, read about how his exposure to a culture completely different than his own brings a new perspective on life. “While corporate America is very rewarding and challenging, I knew that I wanted to dedicate a portion of my life to using my skill set in a more altruistic manner. Capitalism is a very important catalyst in the engine for social change and I knew my finance background could make a palpable difference in people’s lives.”
