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:

- What it takes to build trust across diverse, cross-cultural teams
- How to recognize and recover from burnout
- Why vulnerability and boundaries are critical for long-term leadership success
- 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
