Dear Colleague:

Greetings from TISS!

We are delighted to invite you to a unique three part workshop series on leadership at Mumbai on the above dates mentioned. To build a world based on the values of equality and justice, we need new leadership capacities; to think differently, design strategically and act on principles with accountability. These new capacities must be able to completely align principles, purpose and practice to build a better world.

This series of workshop will provide you with tools to expand your reach and impact to lead your work and projects to make a difference in the world. It offers the opportunity for established or budding leaders from the media, government, civil society, public and private sector to explore issues that can transform your work, organisations and initiatives to focusing on social and environmental well-being for results with systemic change.

We are extremely fortunate to have Dr. Monica Sharma, Tata Chair Visiting Professor, Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), a world-class facilitator and former Director, Leadership and Capacity Development, United Nations, to conduct this workshop. Her capacity to foster leadership and design large scale projects to source commitment and deliver tangible results is globally recognised.

A background note with further details of the workshop with the purpose and objectives of the workshop and a profile of Dr. Monica Sharma is enclosed. Please also find attached an application form to be filled with this letter.

All sessions are interactive, engaging participants actively. The consultation will not provide prescriptive solutions – rather, it will challenge each of us to delve deep into our being; and generate new, breakthrough ideas, sourcing our abilities to envision a new future, commit ourselves to action and acquire the skills to attain this future.

The funds raised by the participant fees are to compensate for the organising costs of this programme. The workshop costs cover workshop material, Lunch and Tea/Coffee during the three days of the 3 workshops. The workshop fee for all three workshops (9 days) is Rs. 15,000 for Individual Developmental Professionals/Consultants, Local NGOs and Social Enterprises, Rs. 25000 for Academic Institutions and National NGOs and International NGOs, Rs. 40000 for Government, Corporate, Donor and Funding Agencies.

All participants must commit to participating in all days of each workshop and in all the three workshops. (i.e. no session can be skipped, each session, day and workshop are inter-linked and are building blocks for the next).

Looking forward to hearing from you at the earliest.

Thank you and with Best Regards,

Srilatha Juvva
