In 1938, a London stockbroker canceled his skiing vacation to Switzerland. Instead, he organized a daring rescue of 669 kids — from Hitler. He then took care of them.

Winton died a few days ago at age 106. His compassion can inspire transformation among those of us who are selfish. His risk-taking can inspire the leaders among us.
