Meagan Fallone | CEO, Barefoot College

What the program has done, has been contagious for my organization. Post the Program, I curated a two and a half weeks Leadership Retreat, on the lines of the program, and rendezvoused 26 members of my team in one location (Ajmer). At the end of the retreat, each person created an individual roadmap that was aligned with mission of Barefoot College. |
A significant leadership lesson I learnt in the program is taking ownership and responsibility for myself. The program helped me set and manage expectations with the team and the Board. Through various interactions at the program, I have put ideas and thoughts into practice that have further defined my role and enabled me to find a place with the team. I have initiated decentralization of decision making by laying out the relevant processes and systems needed to empower the team members. |

At a personal level, I feel re-energized, re-engaged and more committed than ever to Arpan's purpose and mission, and I am inspired to see the organization's impact grow even further. I used the Harvard case studies and videos from the Leadership Program to facilitate capacity building sessions for our top and mid-level management teams. We have also instituted an Action Plan for 2017-18, which includes improving processes and systems, aligning values across Arpan, and recruiting new talent that identifies with the organization's value system. |
