Andrew Hewitt

Andrew’s passion was ignited when he witnessed his talented university friends strive for success in high status careers, only to find themselves disheartened by the profit-at-all-cost corporate mentality. He wondered why society defines success in business through lists like the Fortune 500 that rank organizations based on revenue alone, and so redefining success became his mission, leading Andrew to publish "The Power of Focus for College Students." To help redefine success in business, Andrew created GameChangers 500 to showcase the world’s top purpose-driven organizations using business as a force for good. GameChangers 500 ranks organizations based on their social and environmental impact and their ability to maximize benefit, not just profit.
