It’s grounded, humble, and deeply human. **Leadership Lessons** is a reflective session for people who want to understand *why* effective leadership works—not just *what* to do. Together, we explore the science, psychology, and lived experience behind leadership that is effective, compassionate, and sustainable over time. This session is less about fixing urgent problems and more about **building a strong inner foundation for leadership**. We slow down, step back, and reflect on the principles that shape how leaders think, relate, and act—especially under pressure. ### **What this session is about** * The theory behind effective, grounded, and compassionate leadership * Why humility, presence, and clarity are core leadership skills—not “soft” ones * Practical frameworks and mental models anyone can use * Simple, applicable skills that translate across teams, roles, and cultures You won’t be asked to perform or present a polished leadership persona. This is a space for thoughtful reflection, shared learning, and honest conversation about what leadership *actually* requires. ### **Who this is for** * Leaders who want depth rather than hype * First-time managers, team leads, and founders * People curious about the science behind leadership, behavior, and decision-making * Anyone who wants to lead with more steadiness, integrity, and impact ### **What to expect** A guided reflection session led by experienced coaches who have supported 100+ leaders. The session combines: * Clear theory explained in simple, practical language * Reflection prompts and group discussion * Tools and insights you can apply immediately * A calm, thoughtful pace that encourages real insight ### **Logistics** ⏰ **When:** Thursdays, 7pm Singapore time 💻 **Where:** Online (link visible after confirmation) 💶 **Cost:** Free for now, small group (max 10 spots) 👉 **Click here to confirm your spot via our Luma page** — once confirmed, you’ll receive the call link and reminders before the session. 🎥 **Watch this before joining to know what to expect:** [https://share.descript.com/view/88U5ZL0Lj8U](https://share.descript.com/view/88U5ZL0Lj8U) \*\*\* ### **Who We Are** **Rakesh Kasturi** With more than 15 years of experience in innovation and organizational development, Rakesh believes that healthy, inclusive organisational change is more possible than ever when we look at people, culture, and collaboration in new ways.
