School of Inspired Leadership is one of a kind ‘Business School’ that provides holistic education to serve the purpose of building well being of one and all.

Our very own founder, Mr. Anil Sachdev conducts a series of Self-Leadership workshops that enrich us with the vision of being a Leader in the truest sense. It is a lifetime learning experience that inculcates leadership excellence within us. We stand out from the crowd by being not just a MBA but a Leader with a vision and mission. This helps us to identify the true purpose of our doings and how can we leverage our strengths to succeed in the journey of our life.

1. Self-Leadership School of Inspired Leadership believes in creating the ‘Leaders of Tomorrow’ enriched with the top 5 pillars that SOIL stands for which are:
- Mindfulness
- Compassion
- Sustainability
- Ethics
- Diversity
2. Morning-Circle

Ever heard the assemblies/prayers we did as school students in any B-School? No,right? But, we the SOILites do it. Yes, we DO. Morning Circle is the most unique aspect that forms the part of our unique learning process. We start each day by being grateful to the almighty, with a beautiful morning prayer followed by experience sharing, knowledge sharing by the students and faculty alike. We dedicate 15 minutes each day to this unique practice and acquaint ourselves with the happenings around one another. Another, notable practice that we the SOILites follow is the extra-ordinary way of celebrating Birthdays of our fellow mates by appreciating the uniqueness they possess.

3. Social Innovation Program

“Compassion” one of the pillars of SOIL teaches us to step in another person’s shoes and feel what they are going through. This is achieved through the ‘Social Innovation Program’ in which each student works with a NGO for a day each week and understand the needs and have a completely different experience altogether.
As it is rightly said, ‘Giving is not just making a donation, it is about making a difference’; hence SOIL students make an effort to give back to the society and enrich themselves with an opportunity to serve.

4. Mentorship Program

One of the most unique feature that one year MBA of SOIL offers is the ‘Mentorship Program’. In this program, each student at SOIL is assigned two mentors – one internal mentor and one external who is an eminent Corporate Leader. The mentoring program provides us an opportunity to understand and design our career path with the esteemed guidance of seasoned corporate leaders with the help of their experiences. This mentorship usually turns to lifelong associations for many of the SOIL students.

5. Internships

SOIL is a 12-month rigorous Post Graduate Program with Business Leadership and Human Resource Leadership as the cohorts. Despite being a 12-month program it makes sure to provide its students’ with varying experience and exposure to each and everything like a 2-year MBA Program, one such being ‘1-month’ long ‘Internships’ which are an integral and graded course of the SOIL curriculum.
It begins after the completion of first term and usually starts around late August and ends in late September. The internships give us an opportunity to apply the concepts of classroom teachings to the real world problems of the industries and help us align our though process with the corporate world as Post Graduate Programs is the need of the hour today & fast evolving.

6. Yoga and Wellness

“Mindfulness” which is one of the core pillars of SOIL that helps us to be more aware of our own self and aligns us to be in the present moment is well experienced with an exposure to Yoga and Meditation that again is a part of our SOIL Curriculum. It is taught by our favorite ‘Susie Mam’. The focus is laid on the practice and we are encouraged to assimilate the practice of yoga and meditation in our day to day life and hence lead a disciplined life.

7. Eminent Speakers

Time and again we the SOIL students have been lucky to get a chance to listen to the most eminent personalities of the Corporate World. These sessions are very valuable to gain perspectives on life, career paths and success from senior leaders as they share their life’s journey. It is rightly said, ‘One learns best through others’ experience’ and we the SOILites make the best use of the many opportunities provided to us by listening to these eminent speakers and take the best and assimilate in us.
