About this listen

What if your strongest leadership lessons came not from the boardroom - but from your family?


In this episode, I sit down with Prateek Jain, a global supply chain leader turned educator and consultant, to explore how family values, cultural awareness and burnout shaped his approach to leadership.


With 25+ years of experience at companies like GSK and Unilever, Prateek unpacks his evolution from a high-achieving executive to a purpose-driven mentor - sharing insights on building trust, setting boundaries and leading with intention in a global context.


In this episode, you’ll learn:

  1. How family support shaped Prateek’s leadership values
  2. What it takes to build trust across diverse, cross-cultural teams
  3. How to recognize and recover from burnout
  4. Why vulnerability and boundaries are critical for long-term leadership success
  5. The role of AI and education in creating more conscious leadership



Key topics:

  • Authentic leadership rooted in personal values
  • Work-life balance and the shift from corporate to education
  • Leadership transitions and purpose-driven career pivots
  • Building empathy and cultural intelligence in global teams



Prateek’s journey offers grounded, practical wisdom for anyone redefining what success and impact mean - at work and at home.
