Why This Matters

Strategic Importance

These institutions preserve culture, hold values, and balance the collective life of society. They are easily overlooked when they are functioning well, and quickly missed when they are not. Acharya Rathnam’s advisory in this pillar is offered to the trustees, founders, and leaders of these institutions to help them remain stable, energetically aligned, and capable of growing without losing what makes them what they are.
