Thursday, March 10, 2011. Langar…A Golden Experience of True Generosity! It was the second weekend in February and I decided to travel north with friends to the state of Punjab, the northwest most state in India, bordered by the country of Pakistan to the West, and the Indian States of Himmachal Pradesh, and Jammu and Kashmir, to the Northeast. As we arrived, we unloaded from the bus exhausted, tired, cranky, hungry, and in need of food and shelter! This year, Sasha Dichter, Acumen Fund’s Director ...

Its an Acumen thing ;) You can imagine living in India, a country that has the ability to unearth one’s balance and bombard the senses, that I come across a lot of material! India is like nothing else I've ever experienced, like nowhere else I've ever been! 8221; “Oh noooooo! In a countr...

GlobaLink Consulting, Inc.: The Challenges of Leadership: Part II
http://globalinkconsulting.blogspot.com/2011/01/challenges-of-leadership-part-ii.html
Sunday, January 2, 2011. The Challenges of Leadership: Part II. How do we recognize the leaders among us? If we know what a true leader looks like and what characteristics they should embody, then the next question we should ask is how do we recognize our local ‘leaders’ and help build them up, nourish and support them? If we are the next generation of leaders, how are we leading others? So, how does a social enterprise that is a leader of a sector build leaders within? When I asked her how she became so...

On March 1, 2011, the US Peace Corps celebrated its 50th Anniversary, a milestone and landmark for a federal government agency that was inspired in 1960 by then Sen. John F. Kennedy. He challenged students at the University of Michigan to serve their country in the cause of peace by living and working in developing countries. How relevant is this challenge still today?

Saturday, January 29, 2011. The Challenges of Leadership: Part III. The Power of Empowerment! How do you help people feel empowered enough to take on leadership roles? How do you personally transform yourself into a stronger, more inspiring leader? How do you figure out what you can contribute to society that no one else can? Riding my bike through the winding, dusty roads of Hampi, a gorgeous terrain of rice fields and banana plantations as far as the eyes can see, decorated with a backdrop of ancient t...

GlobaLink Consulting, Inc.: The Challenges of Leadership: Part I
http://globalinkconsulting.blogspot.com/2010/12/blog-post.html
Thursday, December 23, 2010. The Challenges of Leadership: Part I. What does it mean to be a really great leader? When you think of a great leader, who do you think of? Do you think of someone famous, an important Head of State, an influential author, an intellectual philosopher, a social change maker, a religious icon? Or do you think of someone you know, a family member, a friend, a colleague, a mentor? If you’re like me, you think of both! 8221; My dad grinned proudly and said “Yeah, you like it!

GlobaLink Consulting, Inc.: Returning Home
http://globalinkconsulting.blogspot.com/2011/09/returning-home.html
Thursday, September 29, 2011. When I embarked on my fellowship journey almost one year back in November 2010, I was envisioning the experience I was about to encounter. As each of the 2011 Fellows prepared to leave NYC for our respective placements, we each wrote a letter to the cities we were traveling to, a sort of love letter to our new homes. I remember my letter well. I remember the longing I had to. Meet this place called India, this city called Hyderabad, this company called WaterHea. E in like fa...
