I talk a bit about this in this section – basically, we don’t know for sure how much this is causing people to work on pressing problems yet (because people changing their careers like this takes something like 2 years on average, some much longer — and we just haven’t been at it that long yet!)
That said, we do have some preliminary evidence (at the very least, some “proofs of concept”) that it’s working. We also did a small-scale experiment in 2017, where we ran some social media ads and found 70 people who told us they changed their career plans 18 months later.
Glad you liked the post!
