John Doerr
The Catalyst
Ideas with a spark, energy, range and the ability to start things.
John Doerr reads as The Catalyst because he ignites action across sectors simultaneously, entrepreneurs, policymakers, investors, youth, rather than directing from a single seat of power. Framing climate as the greatest opportunity of the century, the Kleiner Perkins partner converts existential dread into mobilising energy. His conviction that leadership lives inside everyone reflects a multiplier philosophy at its purest. Doerr does not lead movements so much as accelerate them.
“I think this is going to be the greatest opportunity, human opportunity, social opportunity, economic opportunity of the century.”
“We need innovators, we need entrepreneurs, we need policymakers, we need investors. We need to hear more from impassioned youth.”
“I've really written this book for the leader inside of everyone — their inner leader, and that's their ability to influence others to act as a group.”
