In this week's episode, we speak with Dennis Barsema, a founding Investor at Impact Engine and the Chairman of Northern Illinois University. He is a former Fortune 500 CEO, having led several companies in the telecommunications and technology space. He has also been a Director at many nonprofits and organizations, including Carpenter’s Place, Opportunity International, Collaborative Group, and several microfinance organizations. We also recently interviewed his son, Jason Barsema.

 

"I don't think any business can survive right now without having some kind of social purpose," says Dennis. "I think big business has an absolute ability to move the needle on social issues."
