Lydia Kan's Page

Describe yourself, briefly

Passionate about changing old systems. Brave & committed.

What do you do, mostly?

Leadership development, coaching, strategy & management c consulting

What matters most in the world?

Access to clean water, education & opportunity; especially for girls.

If you were Prime Minister what would you do?

I think I can become an MP (I am an American but am eligible for my British passport at the end of the year) but not PM. I would overhaul the benefits system AND class system so that people could create small businesses & get back to work and recover their personal pride. There are way too many MPs. The US has fewer congressmen/women & Senators overall than the number of MPs & Lords. Why so much representation in such a small country? Surely, fewer, with mission, commitment & integrity can govern the UK?

What does Soft Power say to you?

Don't like phrase; apologies.

Do you have children?

No
