More quotes by Christine Lagarde
In the area of trading, it is now an academically demonstrated fact that women tend to be a little bit more risk-adverse. They don't move positions as quickly and as erratically as men. Maybe it is a bit less profitably, but I think it would have been less risky.

Christine Lagarde
Those negatively affected by globalization, those who are losing their jobs, and losing their skills, people out of training, must be looked after. Governments must establish policies, and governments and companies must actually address that issue, so that those who lose out from globalization can be retrained, recycled, re-established, cared for.
Christine Lagarde
We need to put our good research, our good work, our principles into actionable items whenever we can.
Christine Lagarde
Unless we take action on climate change, future generations will be roasted, toasted, fried and grilled.
Christine Lagarde
Our fortunes rise together, and they fall together. 'All men are brothers,' said the Analects. We have a collective responsibility-to bring about a more stable and more prosperous world, a world in which every person in every country can reach their full potential.
Christine Lagarde
I'm not in the business of reading tea leaves. I don't have a crystal ball.
Christine Lagarde
The Europeans governments have massively changed the landscape in Europe. There is no doubt about it. They have put together the European Financial Stability Fund. They have discussed and approved the European Stability Mechanism.
Christine Lagarde
To me, leadership is about encouraging people. It’s about stimulating them. It’s about enabling them to achieve what they can achieve - and to do that with a purpose.
Christine Lagarde
Social unrest and protectionism are the two major risks of the world economic crisis.
Christine Lagarde
