When the world wants to understand the future, it listens to Mohamed El-Erian. He is the economist that world leaders call, markets follow, academics respect - and students actually want to have coffee with. As a leader, he is that rarest of beasts: an intellectual heavyweight grounded with humility and guided by moral clarity. Cambridge now has a chance to make him our voice to the world - and honestly, I can't imagine anyone better.
