"Well I think there are three dynamics that have really been at work at Pearson's this year and a few years before this that have changed our fortunes."

"The ubiquity of digital across Pearson, not only in how we make things, but how we sell them and how we deliver them to our customers."

"Another is the business mix."

"We are just far more focused on businesses that have a lot to do with each other, and that are consistent."

"We are a large education business and the FT and Penguin certainly play into that very nicely."

"Emerging markets, our exposure to emerging markets, emerging markets are now about 10% of all of Pearson's revenue and growing at more than 20% a year."

"Those are markets where we have not only great demographic characteristics but we can use our scale."

"We can take things that we've made in one country and move them to another country."

"All three of those pieces together have given us fundamentally different financial characteristics"

"You know how the world's changed over the last 16 years, and we've got a lot of amazing opportunities but they require very long-term choices and long-term plans"

"Lift as you climb has become a huge mantra for me."

"How do I ensure I make it easier for those who come after me."

"It’s bigger than that."

"I must say I’m really happy to be here with my family."

"My husband and both my boys are here. *I’m pretty sure they never watched any of the links I sent them."

"I wanna make it count and I’m very happy to have members of team Chanel here with me."

"Great to have the full team Chanel and family support here."

"I can see the number of people who said, no, it can’t be done."

"I remember growing up and I grew up in a small town in India."

"I remember everything was a negotiation."

"I remember my mom saying, “oh my God, you’re so ambitious."

"That was like the number one concern, how is this girl ever gonna find her husband."

"I think it takes a lot of resilience for sure."

"I often joke about it that I have a thick skin."

"How do I make it easier always?‎*I’m absolute believer in affirmations."

"I’m constantly affirming."

"Finding sponsors, finding mentors, finding people, because I didn’t have role models in my immediate family, but reaching out to people."

"I will educate you, but I can’t promise that you will have a career because I don’t know if attitudes are gonna change."

"I can’t change the world around you, but I’ll educate you."

"I didn’t enjoy it as much."

"I’m not allowed to say I’m a lousy engineer because the founders I met this morning who are in the audience, and thank you, StartX founders told me."
