We will host a series of Practice Sessions for Ashoka Fellows, their teams and where we will dive deeper into the leadership experience from Ashoka Fellows across our Global community – particularly how they build leadership in their teams and in their communities.
We will be organizing workshops on various leadership topics between November and April.
You can sign-up to our monthly newsletter to follow up our upcoming offers.
