Harvard and U.S. News & World Report Name Ashoka's Bill Drayton One of America's Best Leaders

America's Best Leaders were chosen by the Center for Public Leadership at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government. The committee used a four-point selection criteria -- accomplishments within the past five years, values, durability, and commitment to developing other leaders. All twenty-five leaders share a clearly articulated vision, measurable results, and, in the words of one management guru, Big Hairy Audacious Goals. In Bill Drayton's case, that means nothing less than transforming the citizen sector as a whole through his work at Ashoka, the global organization he founded twenty-five years ago.
