Abby Falik is an award-winning entrepreneur and expert in social innovation and leadership.
With an aspiration to “only preach what I already practice,” Abby, her husband, and two young sons spent the last nine months traveling across the globe to embody her commitment to bridging the gap between theory and practice, challenging conventional wisdom, and seeking innovative approaches to make a meaningful impact on the world.
A former founder and CEO of a global nonprofit, Abby is currently an entrepreneur in residence with the Emerson Collective based in California, USA. She’s building a global movement to redefine the rite of passage between high school and college while encouraging all of us to ask ourselves, "What are we pretending not to know?"
