Seminar on Leadership and Institution Building on Jan 5th

Leadership is a much talked about but scarcely researched domain in India. Today, we have people who have carved out institutions in different domains after much struggle, but research on their struggle and achievements is dispersed, making it difficult to synthesize learning across them.


At SPJIMR, we realize the potential that understanding leadership in different contexts has, and the cross-pollination opportunities it offers. We are keen to research the domain of institution building, which we see as imbuing a culture and value system into creating an sound organization. As a first step towards this, we are organizing this seminar on "Leadership and Institution Building" on 5 January 2007.

.....

The objective of the seminar is to bring together transformation agents and institution architects from various domains together for a discussion, each sharing leadership practices and institution building in their domains.
