"I shall pass this way but once.
Therefore any good that I can do, or any kindness that I can show, let me do it
now for I shall not pass this way again." — William Penn
I have a lifetime goal to build one million
students as global leaders. I share it with students and participants regularly
during my teaching and training programs. I also share it in my articles, blogs
and books. I am very passionate about this prestigious non-profit project. I am excited to share with
you that this project URL: http://professormsraovision2030.blogspot.in/2014/12/professor-m-s-raos-vision-2030-one_31.html
was ranked as one of the Top 10 Finalists in the ‘Not For Profit’ category of
Leadership 500 Excellence Awards, LEAD 2015 event in Dallas, USA where
President Bill Clinton delivered his keynote address.
I have already trained 35,000 students
so far, and I conduct classes, seminars, workshops and leadership training
programs for students and corporates. Whenever the educational institutions
request me to provide training programs, I honor their request and visit with
excitement to share my passion, vision and knowledge. Apart from my active
involvement in grooming one million students directly, I am currently building
a core team of 50 die-hard followers through a five-bucket approach who will
assist me to accomplish my goal. Here
goes the break-up of the blueprint on my passion, vision, execution and
transformation.
Passion
I am passionate about students. Hence,
I have chosen the noble profession of teaching to make a difference in their
lives. My areas of interest include
learning, leadership, executive education and executive coaching. Hence, I
connected the area of leadership I am passionate about with students to groom
them as global leaders.
Vision
My vision is to build one million
students as global leaders. I am a follower of Mahatma Gandhi and Swami
Vivekananda. I have been inspired by Mahatma Gandhi’s principles of truth and
non-violence. Also, by Swami Vivekananda who put India on the global map in the
Chicago Conference with an emphasis on universal brotherhood and fraternity. He
led from the front with his simplicity and humility. Under the influence of
their ideals and ideas, I lead the movement to shape one million students as
global leaders.
Execution
If you want to change the society, you
need citizens who are highly committed and dedicated. Hence, I am looking for
students with a positive, right and strong attitude to carry forward my passion
and vision to build a better society to achieve the ultimate objective of
global peace and prosperity.
Presently, I have built a team of a
few students and corporate executives who share my passion and vision with
others. They connected with me through teaching and training programs. I send
them e-mails and connect with them through social media. Sometimes they phone
me. I have been building this team over the last 8 years, and am still doing it
by interviewing prospective candidates.
Top
50 Hardcore Team
“Men are developed the same way gold
is mined. Several tons of dirt must be
moved to get an ounce of gold. But you
don’t go into the mine looking for dirt.
You go looking for gold.” — Andrew Carnegie
During my teaching and training
programs, there are students and participants who follow my ideals and ideas,
and seek my career guidance and counseling. I have tentatively created a
blueprint consisting of ‘5 Levels of Leadership’ to build global leaders as
follows:
- In the first level, I invite students who are interested in my passion and vision for discussion and counsel them. During the discussion, I look at various aspects including attitude, academic excellence, attitude of gratitude, persistence, team spirit, leadership abilities, continuous learning and above all, the heart to make a difference to society. I share with them my passion and vision to build one million students as global leaders. If I find that they are seriously interested in sharing and spreading my passion and vision with others on non-profit basis, I include their names in the dedication list of my upcoming leadership books. So far, I have included more than 300 students in five of my 30 leadership books. I have gifted these books to some of them with my own money. This dedication helps them as a reference during their employment interviews apart from remaining as a lifetime gift.
- I assess their contribution and commitment towards my cause apart from their performance. If I find that they contribute to society through Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) and non-profits, I promote them to the second level. Periodically, I have an interaction and discussion with them. If there is any need for my presence to inspire others who aspire to grow as global leaders, I attend and address the conferences/workshops/seminars free of cost. Those who are found lacking in commitment and dedication towards this cause, and found to be fake followers, will not get entry into the second level.
- At the third level, I provide them free leadership training programs actively depending on our convenience. I monitor their performance. If these leaders maintain continuous enthusiasm to spread my vision and passion and share knowledge with others, I elevate them to the fourth level.
- I check whether they are providing leadership training programs voluntarily on non-profit basis to others to groom global leaders. If I find them doing a great job, and based on their commitment, contribution and performance, I publish their interviews with photos in my authored book outlining their aspirations and expectations, principles and philosophies, and commitment and contribution to the society. In this way, they get gradually exposed globally.
- At the fifth level, I take 50 best brains who contributed with a heart to serve society and introduce them into my international connections to enable them to grow as global leaders. At this level, all the 50 core team members must take a pledge to build 50 more core team members as global leaders during their lifetime on non-profit basis to bring a positive change to the society.
To accomplish my vision, I make use of
social media including my four blogs, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and Google+.
I post articles on career, leadership, motivation, success, and learning and
development regularly in my LinkedIn https://in.linkedin.com/in/professor-m-s-rao-b5211a34 and Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Professor-MSRao/451516514937414 and share them with students. I am happy to
share with you that my teaching profession has become the launching pad to
accomplish my lifetime vision to build one million students as global leaders
by 2030.
Transformation
Over a period of time, more leaders
are groomed by me and my ‘Top 50 Hardcore Team’. We work as a team to make a
difference to the world. When a stone is thrown into water it takes time for
the ripples to reach the shore. My initiative started to create ripple effects
to make a positive change among some students. Once the ripples reach the
shore, I can expect total transformation of youth for global good. I intend to infuse my passion and vision into
the young brigade who are filled with lots of fire in their bellies but lack
the right direction. I would like to become a change agent to shepherd the
youth to groom them as global leaders. During my teaching and training programs,
I find students with lots of energy and enthusiasm to lead our country but they
lack the right direction. They are looking for leaders who can show them the
way. They are not happy with the way things are happening around them in
society. We may consider them an impatient cohort but when we observe closely
and clearly the youth is more worried about India. They are looking for fresh
blood to lead from the front.
My role is to ensure that the right
people are in the right place at the right time to enable them to grab the
global opportunities. When a drop of rain falls into an ocean, it is without
any significance. However, when the same drop of rain falls into a shell, it
becomes a pearl. My task is to make sure
that the drops of rain fall into the shells and become pearls. Hence, I would
like to make sure that the students don’t lose their significance by going into
wrong paths and areas. I make sure that they enter into right paths, careers
and areas at the right time of their age to grow as global leaders with
universal brotherhood and fraternity.
Society is a collection of
individuals. When all individuals think collectively to contribute to others,
they can make a difference. Margaret Mead rightly remarked, “Never doubt that a
small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it
is the only thing that ever has.” Hence,
we intend to change the society through a passionate vision and execution with
a long-term view.
A
Strong Leadership Pipeline
Building one million global leaders
becomes a strong leadership pipeline for the world as currently baby boomers
are retiring and there is an urgent need to build leaders at all levels
especially at the senior level. These
global leaders can contribute aggressively to make a difference. They can make
India a prosperous nation and a super power in the world. They can work in any
part of the world to create a better world.
I am optimistic that I can contribute my best as an individual by
building a passionate team of 50 to build one million global leaders by
2030. In case of my untimely death, my
‘Top 50 Hardcore Team’ will continue my vision with a tremendous passion.
Hence, I am committed and dedicated to my cause, and above all, I am confident
about my passion, vision, execution and transformation of students as global
leaders with a global mindset to make a difference to the world.
My
Personal Vision Statement
Here is my personal vision statement:
My vision is to build one million
students as global leaders.
My vision is to help students unleash
their hidden potential.
My vision is to help students succeed
in every area of their lives, and to accomplish their dreams.

students become even more successful students.
My vision is to inspire students to
dream big and achieve big.

peace, prosperity, stability and security.
“Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum
