ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

Mahatma Gandhi.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

What do they have in common?

On the surface nothing, really. But go a bit deeper and you see what separates them from the rest!

The holy grail of true Leadership in the world emerges every now and then in various fields and we learn something new!

The attempt across various columns is to find the Leadership Algorithm!

How can we bring to the fore - Effective and Compelling Leadership!

Leadership is a combination of the external world and the internal world!

How do the two work? What are the variables at play? And what are some of the winning permutations and combinations?

The idea is to bring to the fore the key variables and how they interact with one another. Through examples and experiences!

Leadership that turns organizations into institutions.

The leadership algorithm in an industry that is like Wonderland!

LEADERS IN WONDERLAND:

Is the corporate world like Alice in wonderland ... as conceived by the world-famous author Lewis Carol as early as 150 years ago?

It took Alice courage to enter a rabbit hole to find a land inside, which gave her so many life lessons.

How often, navigating through our stages in life and navigating through Corporate life we realize that true leadership lessons are rooted in Environments, Experiences, and Evolution.

What do we mean by the above?

Environments: Don't get stuck in the past!
