Righteous Rebels (ft. Michael Weinstein)
A look at the AIDS Healthcare Foundation and its core principles through the eyes of its president and co-founder

CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:
[5:27] - Tap Into Your Restlessness
Put Your “Ants in the Pants’ to Work
Michael describes how he channeled his inherent restlessness into a passion for helping others against indifference, institutional barriers, and anything else that stood in his and the organization’s way. How can you channel your personal quirks into powerful progress?
[8:46] - The Choice to Be Open
Leading with an Open Door
Michael Weinstein made a choice early on to always be accessible and available. This isn’t just an altruistic decision to make employees of the organization feel good— it’s a strategic move, too. If you want to be effective, you have to have your finger on the pulse of the people who make your organization tick.
[16:19] - See the Potential in Cross-Pollination
Or ‘What Meryl Streep Has to Do with It”
One of the things that made the AHF innovative has been its willingness and ability to bring in arts and entertainment figures to bring awareness to their cause. Michael traces a line from Princess Diana’s public embrace (metaphorical and literal) of AIDS patients to figures like Meryl Streep, who lended her voice to the narration of the AHF’s documentary film.
[18:20] - Everyone’s an Ambassador
See the potential in each person
In our conversation, Michael expresses his desire that ‘every employee and every patient could be an ambassador.’ Whether you’re running a business, a nonprofit, or a small team of like-minded people pursuing any goal, consider the power in inspiring everyone around you to speak on behalf of your mission.
