Dear Alumni,

We are excited to invite you to an exclusive Fireside Chat with Ravi Kant, author of Leading from the Back – To Achieve the Impossible as part of the Wharton India Fireside Chats series. Drawing on his five decades of leadership experience and insights from his recently authored book, Ravi will explore the provocative question:

"Has Leading from the Front Lost Its Utility?"

In this session, Ravi will challenge the traditional, hierarchical model of leadership and present a new approach better suited for today’s world of rapid change, technological disruption, and millennial-driven workplaces. His 3-pronged leadership model emphasizes empathy, agility, and distributed leadership.

This discussion will be moderated by Samir Shah, Managing Partner at Peak Sustainability Ventures, a veteran leader in sustainability and climate investments, and Wharton MBA, Class of 1986.
