Principal's Message
As I take on the responsibility of leading this remarkable institution, it is a moment of profound humility and an overwhelming sense of homecoming. Long before I had the privilege of shaping this institution, this institution shaped me. As a daughter of the sacred soil of LSR, I look forward to making strong and steadfast contributions to nation building, as generations of women at LSR have historically done through their unwavering focus on Lakshya, Sadhna, Rachna.
At LSR, we have a long-standing history of empowering young women to assume leadership roles. To ensure that such success becomes the norm rather than the exception, we must look closely at the current climate of women’s leadership in India. The new Women Leadership in Corporate India 26 report shows a widening gap between intent, ambition and outcome. Only 10% of women currently occupy leadership roles; 1% board-level positions. The problem is not entry or aspiration but progression.
