“Generations to come, it may well be, will scarce believe that such a man as this one ever in flesh and blood walked upon this Earth.”
– Albert Einstein
Learn the nuances of leadership from the world’s most extraordinary leader, Gandhiji, and appreciate the relationship of one’s divinity and ones leadership
The Lead Like Gandhi fellowship was formed to enable leaders to uncover the Gandhi in them, embark on a journey of experimenting with their truth, inspired by Gandhiji’s life and leadership. This will empower them to generate a more humane, equitable and ecologically sensitive world.
The Lead Like Gandhi Fellowship is a one year immersive journey into understanding yourself through Gandhi’s values, actions and leadership. It consists of a 9 day transformational experience + 3 day working session (9 months later) along with monthly connect calls throughout the year.
Leadership Takeaways
Highlights of the February 2020 Fellowship
Date – 8th to 15th February, 2020
9 senior leaders; 9 magical days; innumerable life-changing journeys
The journey of discovering this Mahatma called Gandhi, diving deep into his life, getting glimpses of this extraordinary man and leader, his steely resolve, his complete devotion to truth, touched all of the fellows who participated in this 9 day experience deeply. As each of them moved through each day, they sensed so much of Gandhi’s love that opened within them too and they realized how this amazing man could make miracles happen and shake the largest empire by having them see their own unfairness whilst evoking their highest selves.
In the end, when each Lead Like Gandhi Fellow finally discovered his/her life’s purpose, it was a magical and sacred moment. To finally know and totally embody what they are here to do in the world, and tie that up with an unfinished business of Gandhiji, and declare it in the courtyard of where Gandhiji lived, was just an incredible experience.
Testimonials
To say this program is transformational is an understatement. It has the power and energy to shake you inside out, and send you in your journey, emotionally aroused, self-aware, towards accomplishment of your purpose. Today, Lead Like Gandhi is the reason that I’m meeting new people, seeking synergies, designing initiatives, all aligned to the rediscovered purpose of my life. Imagine if a critical mass of beings on this planet were to have gone through this program. What a beautiful world it would be!
Before enrolling into the Lead Like Gandhi Fellowship program, I had no clear direction where I was heading towards though I knew my life’s purpose was to serve the under-privileged in our society. The 9 days course has not just helped me find true purpose of my life but has also enabled me in defining a clear roadmap towards achieving the goal. The experience was truly out of the world and has taught me how relevant Gandhian values and principles are even today and how the same could be applied in our journey of life.
The experience was life altering for me.
