Hitendra works to empower every individual, team and organization to realize their full potential and operate from their inner core. As a Columbia Business School professor, keynote speaker, and Mentora Institute founder, he brings a mathematician’s rigor to some of the most compelling and challenging questions about life and leadership in today’s transformative times. As the BBC World Service put it, “[Hitendra]’s lessons are about how to become a master of yourself before trying to be a master of the universe.”
His widely acclaimed research and teaching on leadership have been featured in Inc., Forbes, Fortune, CNN, Psychology Today, BBC World Service, Financial Times, and The Wall Street Journal. On his Intersections webcast he invites accomplished individuals from diverse disciplines to explore what it takes to approach our full potential in life and in leadership, by dissolving boundaries - between theory and practice, science and faith, east and west, inner and outer, and more.
