Message from Nishchae Suri, President SOIL

Great Leaders believe in Lifelong Learning. At the School of Inspired Leadership (SOIL), we create lifelong learners.

The first step in building an institution committed to learning is a personal one: You must be open to learning. At SOIL, we are committed to continuous personal improvements and growth. To enhance and develop learning skills, we have focused ourselves on a few critical dimensions around knowledge, information and learning methods

We are willing to accept the provisional nature of knowledge. We constantly question long established 'truths' to make sure that they still hold. We encourage an open attitude towards learning and encourage and appreciate diversity in thought and application.

Large organizations rely heavily on processed data. With information being constantly screened, condensed, compiled, coded and crystallized into recommendations, we end up with a filtered view of what's happening. We enable real life organizational experiences for you, where you can confront and experience what's really going on in organizations. Visit companies from different industries, meet their employees, talk to customers and understand how work really gets done.

We recognize that every individual has different learning needs and styles. While one of you may be detail oriented, another would look for the bigger picture. Our Individual Learning Plan (ILP) captures your personal bias and our mentors help you calibrate your judgments accordingly. Humility coupled with fierce resolve is necessary for success. The willingness to seek better ideas is part attitude and part developed skill. At SOIL, we help you become skilled at defining the limits of your own knowledge. By simply asking the right questions and recognizing that you do not have all the answers, you can enhance your learning substantially.

At SOIL, we celebrate your strengths and help you become the person and professional you were born to be.
