The Centre for Leadership, Innovation and Change holds an annual conference in India called Igniting the Genius Within. So, due to a string of seemingly random events, I was invited to participate as a graphic recorder in this year’s conference in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India. The participants in this conference are representative of a sort of new breed of business person – one who combines wisdom and spirituality with management skills and entrepreneurship. Since (a) I had never been to India and (b) the combination of business and spirituality was intriguing, I decided to go. It was at the Indian School of Business – a school that is so prestigious that when U.S. presidents go to India, they visit it. All told, it was a wonderful professional and cultural experience that marked my first international partnership. And now that I am stocked on up Azithromycin and malaria pills, I hope it won’t be the last.
