Gandhi helped free India from British rule through nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience. He developed the method of Satyagraha, based on courage, nonviolence and truth. Critics believe he was too conservative and helped partition India.
Nelson Mandela led the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa and became the country's first black president after 27 years in prison. He won the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in establishing a multi-racial democracy and reconciliation. Mandela himself was complex, being both a highly public figure but also private and guarded.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.
Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

Today is a day of remembrance; a great world leader has passed on to another realm. The Hero of South Africa and 27 year political prisoner Nelson Mandela has passed at 95 years old.
2. Mahatma Gandhi One of the most respected spiritual and political leaders of the 1900's, Gandhi helped free the Indian people from British rule through nonviolent resistance. He is honored by Indians as the father of the nation. Called Mahatma, meaning “great soul” he developed a method of action based upon the principles of courage, nonviolence and truth called Satyagraha. He believed that the way people behave is more important than what they achieve. Satyagraha promoted nonviolence and civil disobedience as the most appropriate methods for obtaining political and social goals.
3. Admirers and Critics Gandhi was admired as a man of thought and action who offered an alternative vision and operated on a deeper level, making him distinctive. He was a strong proponent of non violence and peace. Critics of Gandhi believe he was puritanical, conservative, pro bourgeois and levied a sense of guilt on the Indian psyche which hampered its ability to emerge as a powerful state. His alienation of Muslims helped partition India and hamper relations amongst Indians for decades.
4. Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela is one of the world's most revered statesmen, who led the struggle to replace the apartheid regime of South Africa with a multi-racial democracy. He launched a campaign of economic sabotage and was arrested for attempting to overthrow the government. Jailed for 27 years, he emerged to become the country's first black president and to play a leading role in the drive for peace in other spheres of conflict. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993.
5. ‘In real life we deal, not with gods, but with ordinary humans like ourselves: men and women who are full of contradictions, who are stable and fickle, strong and weak, famous and infamous.’ —Nelson Mandela Mandela himself was ripe with contradictions. He was a highly public figure yet was guarded and closed about his private life. His speeches have been described as awe inspiring and vibrant, yet some view them as stiff, reserved and contrived. He is a statesman, yet a politician. He has high ideals for freedom and justice but is often viewed as portraying his views as an “actor”, becoming anything you want him to be.
