Hi all,
I have been lucky to be associated with Sangeeth, a visionary leader, and together we are trying to unravel the methods required to produce more leaders in India.
While there is a lot of talk on leadership development, the subject needs to be dealt with a lot more seriousness and thought, to ensure further groth and development of India. If India develops, we all develop.
Just below the surface of a much talked about economic growth, India is still left with a quagmire of problems to deal with - corruption, poverty, in adequate infrastructure.
To add to this, India's existing system focuses on creating a band of doers: managers and programmers to facilitate a growth primarily based on cost competency.
Unlike other developed nations (19th C Europe, 20th C USA), who developed by focusing on developing individual leadership and institutions which support leaders, India is focusing on short-term gains
Our position cannot be more precarious than this - What is our way out?
But how do we go about it? I wish to solicit ideas from you all.

- To move to the next level India should focus on creating more leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs who can bring in multifold value compared to the existing system. We should build India as a nation of leaders to develop her as a leader among nations.
- To be a leader among nations, India should focus on creating leaders who can create multifold value to the system than blindly relying on cost competency
- To be a leader among nations, India should focus on creating more dreamers than just the doers - the managers, analysts, programmers. We should focus on creating more entrepreneurs, innovators and change architects.
- To be a leader among nations, India should focus on creating leaders who can create more jobs in the economy, leverage scarce resources, sustain growth levels, and preserve our democracy.
- To be a leader among nations, India should create leaders who can visionise, align and motivate.
But how do we go about it? I wish to solicit ideas from you all.
