EP 9: The Definite Optimism of Jack O' Connor
While only in his early twenties, Jack O' Connor has already amassed a laundry list of meaningful achievements. Here are a few:
- He's a United Nations Youth Delegate for Ireland, representing Ireland domestically and internationally in New York, Geneva, Brussels.
- He founded Forbes-featured Moyo Nua; winning WTC Association's 'Peace Through Trade' World Cup, and placing in the top 0.16% in a project pool of over 75,000 projects for the Hult Prize.
AND
- He was a Junior Chamber International 'Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the World' Finalist in 2020.
As this biographical sketch makes clear, Jack is a remarkable young man with a strong social conscience and unbridled ambition. In our conversation, we explore the genesis of this ambition, the pragmatic actions he takes to manifest it in the real world, and the advice he would give to his younger self- among other things. I really enjoyed and learned a great deal from this conversation with Jack, and I hope you will too!
