Alexa Bussmann is the Founder of Novel Hand, the place where activism meets impact. They are a community bringing awareness to global humanitarian issues through writing & content creation.
Alexa built Novel Hand when she noticed a disconnect in her generation. While there exists concern for current humanitarian issues, it can be difficult to find ways to actually make an impact, especially when taking into consideration how complex many of these problems actually are. She wants to bridge the gap between the passion people have for social issues and turn that into actionable steps for innovative solutions.
In our conversation we discuss:
- Her journey into entrepreneurship
- The difficulty of impact measurement
- How to make an impact through technology
- The importance of humility vs. ego when leading a team in the social impact space
- The importance of adopting a growth mindset.
Alexa aspires to encourage meaningful impact and believes that education and awareness is the first step towards that.
