Sameer Dua's Biography

Sameer Dua is the Founder of the Institute for Generative Leadership in India and author of two bestselling books on his subject: “Declaring Breakdowns: Powerfully creating a future that matters in 6 simple steps” and “Become: The 5 Critical Conversational Practices that Shift ‘Who You Be’ as a Leader” published by Harper Business. In the first 6 hours, “Become” became a bestseller in 5 different categories on Amazon.

Sameer has 26 years of experience in the field of management and leadership education, and has worked with program participants from 52 different countries. He is a Leadership faculty member at the Indian Naval Higher Command Course, a program for senior officers of the armed forces (Indian Army, Indian Navy and Indian Air Force) at the Naval War College, Goa.

Sameer is also the Founder and Chief Catalyst, Gift Your Organ Foundation (GYO). Amongst many other successes in the last 8 years, GYO introduced the Green heart Drivers’ License project in the states of Karnataka and Maharashtra along with these respective state governments in India. In Karnataka, the number of pledges increased 7 fold in a matter of 7 months; and the number of organ transplantations has doubled, year on year. The federal government in India has adopted this project in March 2018 to be implemented across all states in India. (www.giftyourorgan.org)
