0:00:01.638,0:00:03.982
Billie Jean King: Hi, everyone!

0:00:04.006,0:00:06.348
(Applause)

0:00:06.372,0:00:07.550
Thanks, Pat.

0:00:07.574,0:00:09.132
Thank you!

0:00:11.920,0:00:13.516
Getting me all wound up, now!

0:00:13.540,0:00:14.546
(Laughter)

0:00:14.570,0:00:15.757
Pat Mitchell: Good!

0:00:16.641,0:00:20.538
You know, when I was watching[br]the video again of the match,

0:00:20.562,0:00:25.051
you must have felt[br]like the fate of the world's women

0:00:25.075,0:00:27.673
was on every stroke you took.

0:00:28.446,0:00:29.963
Were you feeling that?

0:00:30.835,0:00:34.154
BJK: First of all, Bobby Riggs --[br]he was the former number one player,

0:00:34.178,0:00:36.180
he wasn't just some hacker, by the way.

0:00:36.204,0:00:39.086
He was one of my heroes and I admired him.

0:00:39.848,0:00:43.336
And that's the reason I beat him,[br]actually, because I respected him.

0:00:43.360,0:00:44.459
(Laughter)

0:00:44.483,0:00:47.079
It's true -- my mom[br]and especially my dad always said:

0:00:47.103,0:00:49.981
"Respect your opponent,[br]and never underestimate them, ever."

0:00:50.005,0:00:52.293
And he was correct.[br]He was absolutely correct.

0:00:53.245,0:00:55.282
But I knew it was about social change.

0:00:56.962,0:01:00.324
And I was really nervous[br]whenever we announced it,

0:01:00.348,0:01:03.217
and I felt like the whole world[br]was on my shoulders.

0:01:03.241,0:01:08.902
And I thought, "If I lose, it's going[br]to put women back 50 years, at least."

0:01:08.926,0:01:12.823
Title IX had just been passed[br]the year before -- June 23, 1972.

0:01:13.892,0:01:16.466
And women's professional tennis --

0:01:16.490,0:01:19.763
there were nine of us who signed[br]a one-dollar contract in 1970 --

0:01:19.787,0:01:21.886
now remember, the match is in '73.

0:01:22.454,0:01:25.614
So we were only in our[br]third year of having a tour

0:01:25.638,0:01:29.898
where we could actually play,[br]have a place to compete and make a living.

0:01:29.922,0:01:32.918
So there were nine of us that signed[br]that one-dollar contract.

0:01:32.942,0:01:37.911
And our dream was for any girl,[br]born any place in the world --

0:01:37.935,0:01:39.493
if she was good enough --

0:01:39.517,0:01:43.628
there would be a place for her to compete[br]and for us to make a living.

0:01:43.652,0:01:47.412
Because before 1968,[br]we made 14 dollars a day,

0:01:47.436,0:01:49.888
and we were under the control[br]of organizations.

0:01:49.912,0:01:52.105
So we really wanted[br]to break away from that.

0:01:52.129,0:01:54.845
But we knew it wasn't really[br]about our generation so much;

0:01:54.869,0:01:56.919
we knew it was about[br]the future generations.

0:01:56.943,0:02:00.948
We do stand on the shoulders of the people[br]that came before us, there is no question.

0:02:00.972,0:02:03.505
But every generation[br]has the chance to make it better.

0:02:04.265,0:02:06.682
That was really on my mind.

0:02:06.706,0:02:10.325
I really wanted to start matching[br]the hearts and minds to Title IX.

0:02:10.349,0:02:14.136
Title IX, in case anybody doesn't know,[br]which a lot of people probably don't,

0:02:14.160,0:02:18.438
said that any federal funds given[br]to a high school, college or university,

0:02:18.462,0:02:20.536
either public or private,

0:02:20.560,0:02:25.462
had to -- finally --[br]give equal monies to boys and girls.

0:02:25.909,0:02:27.400
And that changed everything.

0:02:27.424,0:02:30.250
(Applause)

0:02:30.274,0:02:32.032
So you can have a law,

0:02:32.056,0:02:34.971
but it's changing the hearts and minds[br]to match up with it.

0:02:34.995,0:02:37.542
That's when it really rocks, totally.

0:02:37.566,0:02:38.717
So that was on my mind.

0:02:38.741,0:02:42.330
I wanted to start that change[br]in the hearts and minds.

0:02:42.354,0:02:45.146
But two things came out of that match.

0:02:45.170,0:02:48.326
For women: self-confidence, empowerment.

0:02:48.350,0:02:50.892
They actually had enough nerve[br]to ask for a raise.

0:02:51.675,0:02:55.516
Some women have waited[br]10, 15 years to ask.

0:02:55.838,0:02:57.839
I said, "More importantly,[br]did you get it?"

0:02:57.863,0:02:58.931
(Laughter)

0:02:58.955,0:03:00.129
And they did!

0:03:00.153,0:03:01.947
And for the men?

0:03:01.971,0:03:04.802
A lot of the men today don't realize it,

0:03:04.826,0:03:10.231
but if you're in your 50s, 60s[br]or whatever, late 40s,

0:03:10.255,0:03:13.831
you're the first generation of men[br]of the Women's Movement --

0:03:13.855,0:03:15.147
whether you like it or not!

0:03:15.171,0:03:18.193
(Laughter)

0:03:18.217,0:03:19.500
(Applause)

0:03:19.524,0:03:20.675
And for the men,

0:03:20.699,0:03:23.314
what happened for the men,[br]they'd come up to me --

0:03:23.338,0:03:26.439
and most times, the men are the ones[br]who have tears in their eyes,

0:03:26.463,0:03:27.614
it's very interesting.

0:03:27.638,0:03:31.651
They go, "Billie, I was very young[br]when I saw that match,

0:03:31.675,0:03:33.029
and now I have a daughter.

0:03:35.193,0:03:37.990
And I am so happy I saw that[br]as a young man."

0:03:38.588,0:03:42.137
And one of those young men,[br]at 12 years old, was President Obama.

0:03:42.934,0:03:45.654
And he actually told me that[br]when I met him, he said:

0:03:45.678,0:03:48.636
"You don't realize it,[br]but I saw that match at 12.

0:03:48.660,0:03:50.513
And now I have two daughters,

0:03:50.537,0:03:52.963
and it has made a difference[br]in how I raise them."

0:03:52.987,0:03:57.704
So both men and women got a lot[br]out of it, but different things.

0:03:58.276,0:04:01.431
PM: And now there are generations --[br]at least one or two --

0:04:01.455,0:04:04.155
who have experienced the equality

0:04:04.179,0:04:09.065
that Title IX and other fights[br]along the way made possible.

0:04:09.089,0:04:13.680
And for women, there are generations[br]who have also experienced teamwork.

0:04:13.704,0:04:17.754
They got to play team sports[br]in a way they hadn't before.

0:04:18.146,0:04:23.227
So you had a legacy already built[br]in terms of being an athlete,

0:04:23.251,0:04:28.506
a legacy of the work you did[br]to lobby for equal pay for women athletes

0:04:28.530,0:04:30.804
and the Women's Sports Foundation.

0:04:31.368,0:04:34.070
What now are you looking to accomplish

0:04:34.094,0:04:37.050
with The Billie Jean King[br]Leadership Initiative?

0:04:37.360,0:04:40.208
BJK: I think it goes back[br]to an epiphany I had at 12.

0:04:40.232,0:04:43.233
At 11, I wanted to be the number one[br]tennis player in the world,

0:04:43.257,0:04:46.568
and a friend had asked me to play[br]and I said, "What's that?"

0:04:47.098,0:04:50.573
Tennis was not in my family --[br]basketball was, other sports.

0:04:50.597,0:04:52.465
Fast forward to 12 years old,

0:04:52.489,0:04:54.086
(Laughter)

0:04:54.110,0:04:56.324
and I'm finally starting[br]to play in tournaments

0:04:56.348,0:04:58.799
where you get a ranking[br]at the end of the year.

0:04:59.432,0:05:02.801
So I was daydreaming[br]at the Los Angeles Tennis Club,

0:05:02.825,0:05:07.589
and I started thinking about my sport[br]and how tiny it was,

0:05:07.613,0:05:11.262
but also that everybody who played[br]wore white shoes, white clothes,

0:05:11.286,0:05:14.180
played with white balls --[br]everybody who played was white.

0:05:14.880,0:05:19.842
And I said to myself, at 12 years old,[br]"Where is everyone else?"

0:05:22.222,0:05:25.373
And that just kept sticking in my brain.

0:05:25.397,0:05:26.548
And that moment,

0:05:26.572,0:05:29.526
I promised myself I'd fight[br]for equal rights and opportunities

0:05:29.550,0:05:32.298
for boys and girls, men and women,[br]the rest of my life.

0:05:32.779,0:05:36.991
And that tennis, if I was fortunate[br]enough to become number one --

0:05:37.015,0:05:40.506
and I knew, being a girl,[br]it would be harder to have influence,

0:05:40.530,0:05:42.507
already at that age --

0:05:42.531,0:05:44.577
that I had this platform.

0:05:46.301,0:05:47.969
And tennis is global.

0:05:49.451,0:05:51.192
And I thought, "You know what?

0:05:52.163,0:05:55.091
I've been given an opportunity[br]that very few people have had."

0:05:55.115,0:05:58.070
I didn't know if I was going[br]to make it -- this was only 12.

0:05:58.094,0:06:01.222
I sure wanted it, but making it[br]is a whole other discussion.

0:06:01.246,0:06:05.449
I just remember I promised myself,[br]and I really try to keep my word.

0:06:06.174,0:06:09.976
That's who I truly am,[br]just fighting for people.

0:06:10.000,0:06:14.210
And, unfortunately, women have had less.

0:06:15.031,0:06:17.300
And we are considered less.

0:06:17.324,0:06:19.592
And so my attentions,[br]where did they have to go?

0:06:19.616,0:06:21.801
It was just ... you have to.

0:06:21.825,0:06:25.056
And learn to stick up for yourself,[br]hear your own voice.

0:06:25.080,0:06:28.417
You hear the same words[br]keep coming out all the time,

0:06:28.441,0:06:32.158
and I got really lucky[br]because I had an education.

0:06:32.182,0:06:34.750
And I think if you can see it[br]you can be it, you know?

0:06:34.774,0:06:36.990
If you can see it, you can be it.

0:06:37.014,0:06:39.018
You look at Pat,[br]you look at other leaders,

0:06:39.042,0:06:41.188
you look at these speakers,[br]look at yourself,

0:06:41.212,0:06:42.870
because everyone --

0:06:42.894,0:06:44.252
everyone --

0:06:44.276,0:06:46.089
can do something extraordinary.

0:06:46.113,0:06:47.555
Every single person.

0:06:47.579,0:06:51.812
PM: And your story, Billie,[br]has inspired so many women everywhere.

0:06:52.287,0:06:55.158
Now with the Billie Jean King[br]Leadership Initiative,

0:06:55.182,0:06:57.366
you're taking on an even bigger cause.

0:06:57.390,0:07:01.414
Because one thing we hear a lot[br]about is women taking their voice,

0:07:01.438,0:07:04.865
working to find their way[br]into leadership positions.

0:07:04.889,0:07:07.721
But what you're talking[br]about is even bigger than that.

0:07:07.745,0:07:09.974
It's inclusive leadership.

0:07:09.998,0:07:13.588
And this is a generation that has grown up[br]thinking more inclusively --

0:07:13.612,0:07:15.733
BJK: Isn't it great?[br]Look at the technology!

0:07:15.757,0:07:20.309
It's amazing how it connects us all![br]It's about connection.

0:07:20.333,0:07:23.947
It's simply amazing[br]what's possible because of it.

0:07:23.971,0:07:26.411
But the Billie Jean King[br]Leadership Initiative

0:07:26.435,0:07:29.499
is really about the workforce mostly,[br]and trying to change it,

0:07:29.523,0:07:33.868
so people can actually go to work[br]and be their authentic selves.

0:07:33.892,0:07:36.929
Because most of us have two jobs:

0:07:36.953,0:07:39.572
One, to fit in -- I'll give you[br]a perfect example.

0:07:39.596,0:07:42.927
An African American woman[br]gets up an hour earlier to go to work,

0:07:42.951,0:07:44.752
straightens her hair in the bathroom,

0:07:44.776,0:07:47.959
goes to the bathroom[br]probably four, five, six times a day

0:07:47.983,0:07:51.071
to keep straightening her hair,[br]to keep making sure she fits in.

0:07:51.095,0:07:52.365
So she's working two jobs.

0:07:52.389,0:07:54.774
She's got this other job,[br]whatever that may be,

0:07:54.798,0:07:57.008
but she's also trying to fit in.

0:07:57.032,0:08:01.075
Or this poor man who kept his diploma --

0:08:01.099,0:08:02.815
he went to University of Michigan,

0:08:02.839,0:08:06.160
but he never would talk about[br]his poverty as a youngster, ever --

0:08:06.184,0:08:07.503
just would not mention it.

0:08:07.527,0:08:09.776
So he made sure they saw[br]he was well-educated.

0:08:10.338,0:08:12.782
And then you see a gay guy[br]who has an NFL --

0:08:12.806,0:08:15.447
which means American football[br]for all of you out there,

0:08:15.471,0:08:17.422
it's a big deal, it's very macho --

0:08:17.447,0:08:19.469
and he talked about football all the time,

0:08:19.493,0:08:23.073
because he was gay[br]and he didn't want anybody to know.

0:08:23.097,0:08:24.874
It just goes on and on.

0:08:24.898,0:08:31.011
So my wish for everyone is to be able[br]to be their authentic self 24/7,

0:08:31.035,0:08:32.841
that would be the ultimate.

0:08:32.865,0:08:36.391
And we catch ourselves -- I mean,[br]I catch myself to this day.

0:08:36.415,0:08:38.562
Even being gay I catch myself,[br]you know, like,

0:08:38.586,0:08:39.736
(Gasp)

0:08:40.464,0:08:43.552
A little uncomfortable,[br]a little surge in my gut,

0:08:43.576,0:08:46.644
feeling not totally[br]comfortable in my own skin.

0:08:48.655,0:08:50.884
So, I think you have to ask yourself --

0:08:50.908,0:08:54.055
I want people to be themselves,[br]whatever that is, just let it be.

0:08:54.079,0:08:57.791
PM: And the first research[br]the Leadership Initiative did showed that,

0:08:57.815,0:09:01.051
that these examples you just used --

0:09:01.075,0:09:05.880
that many of us have the problem[br]of being authentic.

0:09:05.904,0:09:09.929
But what you've just looked at[br]is this millennial generation,

0:09:09.953,0:09:13.491
who have benefited from all these[br]equal opportunities --

0:09:13.515,0:09:15.676
which may not be equal[br]but exist everywhere --

0:09:15.700,0:09:17.419
BJK: First of all, I'm really lucky.

0:09:17.443,0:09:21.975
Partnership with Teneo,[br]a strategic company that's amazing.

0:09:21.999,0:09:24.172
That's really the reason[br]I'm able to do this.

0:09:24.517,0:09:25.978
I've had two times in my life

0:09:26.002,0:09:28.688
where I've actually had men[br]really behind me with power.

0:09:28.712,0:09:32.002
And that was in the old days[br]with Philip Morris with Virginia Slims,

0:09:32.026,0:09:34.360
and this is the second time[br]in my entire life.

0:09:34.384,0:09:35.733
And then Deloitte.

0:09:37.157,0:09:39.942
The one thing I wanted was data -- facts.

0:09:40.465,0:09:42.192
So Deloitte sent out a survey,

0:09:42.216,0:09:46.221
and over 4,000 people now have answered,

0:09:46.245,0:09:48.129
and we're continuing in the workplace.

0:09:48.871,0:09:51.300
And what do the millennials feel?

0:09:52.157,0:09:55.418
Well, they feel a lot, but what[br]they're so fantastic about is --

0:09:55.442,0:09:58.971
you know, our generation was like,[br]"Oh, we're going to get representation."

0:09:58.995,0:10:01.783
So if you walk into a room,[br]you see everybody represented.

0:10:01.807,0:10:04.277
That's not good enough anymore,[br]which is so good!

0:10:04.301,0:10:08.521
So the millennials are fantastic;[br]they want connection, engagement.

0:10:08.545,0:10:11.969
They just want you to tell us[br]what you're feeling, what you're thinking,

0:10:11.993,0:10:13.246
and get into the solution.

0:10:13.270,0:10:14.508
They're problem-solvers,

0:10:14.532,0:10:17.407
and of course, you've got[br]the information at your fingertips,

0:10:17.431,0:10:20.133
compared to when I was growing up.

0:10:20.157,0:10:22.685
PM: What did the research show you[br]about millennials?

0:10:22.709,0:10:24.428
Are they going to make a difference?

0:10:24.452,0:10:28.469
Are they going to create a world where[br]there is really an inclusive work force?

0:10:28.493,0:10:34.385
BJK: Well, in 2025,[br]75 percent of the global workforce

0:10:34.409,0:10:35.849
is going to be millennials.

0:10:36.202,0:10:38.489
I think they are going[br]to help solve problems.

0:10:38.513,0:10:40.609
I think they have[br]the wherewithal to do it.

0:10:40.633,0:10:42.204
I know they care a lot.

0:10:42.228,0:10:46.704
They have big ideas[br]and they can make big things happen.

0:10:47.049,0:10:49.367
I want to stay in the now[br]with the young people,

0:10:49.391,0:10:51.285
I don't want to get behind.

0:10:52.673,0:10:54.344
(Laughter)

0:10:54.368,0:10:56.174
PM: I don't think there's any chance!

0:10:57.604,0:11:00.599
But what you found out[br]in the research about millennials

0:11:00.623,0:11:05.250
is not really the experience that a lot[br]of people have with millennials.

0:11:05.274,0:11:09.038
BJK: No, well, if we want to talk --[br]OK, I've been doing my little mini-survey.

0:11:09.062,0:11:13.945
I've been talking to the Boomers,[br]who are their bosses, and I go,

0:11:13.969,0:11:16.015
"What do you think about the millennials?"

0:11:16.039,0:11:17.915
And I'm pretty excited, like it's good,

0:11:17.939,0:11:19.395
and they get this face --

0:11:19.419,0:11:21.735
(Laughter)

0:11:21.759,0:11:23.441
"Oh, you mean the 'Me' generation?"

0:11:23.465,0:11:25.046
(Laughter)

0:11:25.070,0:11:26.558
I say, "Do you really think so?

0:11:26.582,0:11:29.464
Because I do think they care[br]about the environment

0:11:29.488,0:11:30.783
and all these things."

0:11:31.442,0:11:35.927
And they go, "Oh, Billie,[br]they cannot focus."

0:11:35.951,0:11:38.653
(Laughter)

0:11:38.677,0:11:40.296
They actually have proven

0:11:40.320,0:11:43.814
that the average focus[br]for an 18-year-old is 37 seconds.

0:11:43.838,0:11:45.407
(Laughter)

0:11:45.431,0:11:46.830
They can't focus.

0:11:46.854,0:11:48.263
And they don't really care.

0:11:48.287,0:11:50.128
I just heard a story the other night:

0:11:50.152,0:11:52.582
a woman owns a gallery[br]and she has these workers.

0:11:53.547,0:11:56.712
She gets a text from one of the workers,

0:11:56.736,0:11:59.384
like an intern, she's[br]just starting -- she goes,

0:11:59.408,0:12:02.791
"Oh, by the way, I'm going to be late[br]because I'm at the hairdresser's."

0:12:02.815,0:12:07.727
(Laughter)

0:12:07.751,0:12:11.563
So she arrives, and this boss says,

0:12:11.587,0:12:12.738
"What's going on?"

0:12:12.762,0:12:15.288
And she says, "Oh, I was late,[br]sorry, how's it going?"

0:12:15.312,0:12:19.412
She says, "Well, guess what?[br]I'd like you leave, you're finished."

0:12:19.436,0:12:20.802
She goes, "OK."

0:12:20.826,0:12:24.028
(Laughter)

0:12:24.052,0:12:25.203
No problem!

0:12:25.227,0:12:26.649
PM: Now Billie, that story --

0:12:26.673,0:12:29.107
I know, but that's what[br]scares the boomers --

0:12:29.131,0:12:31.994
I'm just telling you --[br]so I think it's good for us to share.

0:12:32.018,0:12:33.587
(Laughter)

0:12:33.611,0:12:35.094
No, it is good for us to share,

0:12:35.118,0:12:38.187
because we're our authentic selves[br]and what we're really feeling,

0:12:38.211,0:12:40.484
so we've got to take it[br]both ways, you know?

0:12:40.508,0:12:42.455
But I have great faith because --

0:12:42.479,0:12:45.372
if you've been in sports like I have --

0:12:45.396,0:12:47.029
every generation gets better.

0:12:47.053,0:12:48.338
It's a fact.

0:12:48.362,0:12:52.371
With the Women's Sports Foundation[br]being the advocates for Title IX still,

0:12:52.395,0:12:54.648
because we're trying[br]to keep protecting the law,

0:12:54.672,0:12:57.817
because it's in a tenuous position always,

0:12:57.841,0:12:59.721
so we really are concerned,

0:12:59.745,0:13:01.436
and we do a lot of research.

0:13:01.460,0:13:03.134
That's very important to us.

0:13:03.158,0:13:04.753
And I want to hear from people.

0:13:05.407,0:13:10.856
But we really have to protect[br]what Title IX stands for worldwide.

0:13:10.880,0:13:15.646
And you heard President Carter[br]talk about how Title IX is protected.

0:13:16.598,0:13:20.192
And do you know that every single lawsuit

0:13:20.216,0:13:23.734
that girls, at least in sports,[br]have gone up against --

0:13:23.758,0:13:26.167
whatever institutions --

0:13:26.191,0:13:27.592
has won?

0:13:27.616,0:13:29.747
Title IX is there to protect us.

0:13:30.199,0:13:31.788
And it is amazing.

0:13:31.812,0:13:35.788
But we still have to get[br]the hearts and minds --

0:13:35.812,0:13:38.549
the hearts and minds[br]to match the legislation is huge.

0:13:38.573,0:13:40.656
PM: So what gets you up every morning?

0:13:40.680,0:13:43.112
What keeps you sustaining your work,

0:13:43.136,0:13:46.334
sustaining the fight[br]for equality, extending it,

0:13:46.358,0:13:49.789
always exploring new areas,[br]trying to find new ways ... ?

0:13:49.813,0:13:53.583
BJK: Well, I always drove my parents crazy[br]because I was always the curious one.

0:13:54.678,0:13:56.422
I'm highly motivated.

0:13:56.446,0:14:00.225
My younger brother was[br]a Major League Baseball player.

0:14:00.745,0:14:03.296
My poor parents did not care[br]if we were any good.

0:14:03.320,0:14:04.562
(Laughter)

0:14:04.586,0:14:07.325
And we drove them crazy because we pushed,

0:14:07.349,0:14:09.351
we pushed because[br]we wanted to be the best.

0:14:12.587,0:14:17.413
And I think it's because of what[br]I'm hearing today in TED talks.

0:14:17.858,0:14:21.514
I think to listen to these[br]different women,

0:14:21.538,0:14:23.018
to listen to different people,

0:14:23.042,0:14:26.288
to listen to President Carter --[br]90 years old, by the way,

0:14:26.312,0:14:29.784
and he we was throwing these figures[br]out that I would never --

0:14:29.808,0:14:30.962
I'd have to go,

0:14:30.986,0:14:34.277
"Excuse me, wait a minute, I need[br]to get a list out of these figures."

0:14:34.301,0:14:36.978
He was rattling off --[br]I mean, that's amazing, I'm sorry.

0:14:37.931,0:14:39.329
PM: He's an amazing man.

0:14:39.353,0:14:42.061
(Applause)

0:14:42.085,0:14:45.477
BJK: And then you're going to have[br]President Mary Robinson,

0:14:45.501,0:14:47.386
who's a former president --

0:14:47.410,0:14:52.292
Thank you, Irish! 62 percent! LGBTQ! Yes!

0:14:52.316,0:14:53.470
(Applause)

0:14:53.494,0:14:56.911
Congress is voting in June[br]on same-sex marriage,

0:14:56.935,0:15:00.871
so these are things that for some people[br]are very hard to hear.

0:15:00.895,0:15:03.676
But always remember,[br]every one of us is an individual,

0:15:03.700,0:15:05.372
a human being with a beating heart,

0:15:05.396,0:15:09.524
who cares and wants to live[br]their authentic life.

0:15:10.258,0:15:12.374
OK? You don't have to agree with somebody,

0:15:12.398,0:15:14.111
but everyone has the opportunity.

0:15:15.824,0:15:18.999
I think we all have an obligation

0:15:19.023,0:15:23.887
to continue to keep moving[br]the needle forward, always.

0:15:23.911,0:15:25.909
And these people have been so inspiring.

0:15:26.705,0:15:27.863
Everyone matters.

0:15:27.887,0:15:29.764
And every one of you is an influencer.

0:15:29.788,0:15:33.198
You out there listening, out there[br]in the world, plus the people here --

0:15:33.222,0:15:35.037
every single person's an influencer.

0:15:35.061,0:15:37.579
Never, ever forget that. OK?

0:15:37.603,0:15:39.923
So don't ever give up on yourself.

0:15:40.622,0:15:42.900
PM: Billie, you have been[br]an inspiration for us.

0:15:42.924,0:15:44.074
BJK: Thanks, Pat!

0:15:44.098,0:15:47.913
(Applause)

0:15:47.937,0:15:49.088
Thanks, TED!

0:15:49.112,0:15:51.104
(Applause)

0:15:51.128,0:15:52.278
Thanks a lot!
