When we’re in college, we’re told that we need to take an unpaid (or very low paid) internship to gain experience and set us up for a good career. After we’ve started our career, we’re told at times that we need to take one for the team and that we’ll get rewarded later. If you run a business, we’re told that you need to give away free products or work to gain exposure. Should you give away free work? Does it really benefit you to do so? On this week’s episode of the 33 Tangents Podcast Jim and Jason talk about their experiences and lessons learned when it comes to doing work for free.

Leila Janah and Jenna discuss the Give Work philosophy of shifting the view of people in poverty as those who need aid to equal producers and participants in the global economy. Leila shares how the future of work will require everyone to be an entrepreneur and how Samasource is training people to be competitive in the digital world. We discuss launching and building her skincare company LXMI with a Give Work mentality, incorporating as a B Corporation, the power of supply chain, and why we need to shift from the idea of shareholder capitalism to stakeholder capitalism. Leila also dives into her personal journey, including her experience with a group of Fortune 100 CEOs and Pope Francis at The Vatican, lessons like ‘Embrace what is, not what you thought should be,' and seeking inspiration and solace in nature — To gain insight, feel small compared to something bigger. Most importantly, she shares a reminder that we have an obligation to make a difference for others.
Today Boss Level Podcast is covering one of the biggest problems in the world, poverty. My guest is Leila Janah who runs two companies aimed at helping the extremely poor by giving them work. One of her companies, Samasource, provides digital work in developing countries, and the other, LXMI, is an organic and fair trade skin care brand employing women. In addition to talking about businesses, we discuss how companies can measure impact.
The world’s wealthiest countries have donated over $2 trillion dollars in foreign aid to the world’s poorest people. Yet, despite this, 2.8 billion people worldwide still struggle to survive every day. We need a better solution. In GIVE WORK: Reversing Poverty One Job at a Time, social entrepreneur and Founder and CEO of Samasource and LXMI, Leila Janah contends that giving dignified, steady, fair-wage work is the most effective way to eradicate global poverty. Leila is the Founder and CEO of Samasource and LXMI, two companies that share a common social mission to end global poverty by giving work to people in need. Picking up where Dambisa Moyo’s Dead Aid leaves off, GIVE WORK debunks traditional and trendy aid models and offers much-needed solutions. One of her proposals is the tried-and- true “impact sourcing” business model Samasource uses of empowering a new generation of workers in all corners of the world—from the refugee camps of Kenya to rural Arkansas to the blighted neighborhoods of California—with the tools and resources they need to do digital work for companies like Google, Walmart, and Microsoft. Leila Janah is on a mission to eradicate poverty. She dismantles the current thinking on charity and the West’s view of those most in need; she shows how traditional aid is broken, and argues that the solution rests in progressive business models, weaving together private, public, and nonprofit sectors. Powered by Janah’s own story, GIVE WORK also puts faces to the people whose lives have been transformed through obtaining steady work and earned income. We can end extreme poverty. Janah in GIVE WORK delivers a powerful and inspiring vision for the future of the global workforce in the digital age, offering a blueprint for how companies can tap into this population of people, all while making a tremendous difference.

Oh - and in case she didn’t have enough on her plate she’s also the author of the forthcoming book Give Work, the thesis of which is that giving work is the most powerful solution for ending global poverty. Today on the podcast, * She tells the story of sending Reid Hoffman a message on LinkedIn (which he replied to) * Why it’s limiting and ultimately a non-solution to operate from the idea that handouts are the answer to poverty - why “giving work” is the real answer * The power of surrounding yourself with the right people Enjoy!
