With 3.3m NGOs registered in the country, even if 10% are active, that multiplier effect by all NGOs replicating successful innovations in their territories is the best way to shorten the time.

Webinar Summary
All of us IITians / professionals are striving hard to fully leverage that precious foundation of IIT (and similar) education into a rapid rise along the ladder of financial success and professional fame. However, that journey faces a whole host of ever-increasing turbulence – unanticipated changes at the workplace, family obligations and relationships, external environment (such as current wars and ensuing travel & political/market gyrations).
The good news is that our ancient wisdom provides us a proven path to not just deal with these life-stressors & triggers of perpetual mental anguish, but rather turn it around to leverage the same knowledge for sustained professional growth as a leader, coupled with the happiness we all yearn for.
This live webinar will challenge how you think about life, your approach to it, and finding peace, purpose & fulfillment. Don’t miss this opportunity to pause, reflect, and rethink your life & living.
“Don’t blame the external world and the situation. You control your mind, you control your life” says Gautam ji, who is a senior protégé of the celebrated Indian philosopher and Guru Swami Parthasarathy and heads Vedanta USA. Gautam ji has dedicated over 30 years to full-time study and teaching of ancient wisdom and its role in modern life.
These talks by Gautam ji have benefited thousands of professionals at dozens of Fortune 500 corporations and communities like IITians. WHEELS Global Foundation & PanIIT USA are pleased to bring this 3rd webinar for the service of our global PanIIT community and like-minded professional peers.
