The Leadership 30
India's first ever leadership program based on the SDGs set by the United Nations.
In a country of 1.32 billion people, you can roughly find three kinds of people. First, who create a problem. Second, who criticize it. And third, who solve it. The nation has enough problem creators and people who criticize them, but it has a very few, who step-up and take it on themselves to find a solution. People who want to go out there to make a difference. But having a mere resolve is not enough. They need to have the quality of inspiring others with their actions. They need to dream more, learn more, do more. They need to become a leader. And that is what The Leadership 30 is all about.
What is The Leadership 30?
The Leadership 30 is a development program, which aims to create leaders for the community who will create and foster sustainable solutions. This program is first of its kind and only second in the world, which envisions in educating the society about the Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs) set by the United Nations and achieve them by 2030.
