Who is it for?

About USSL

Udayan School of Social Leadership (USSL) is an intensive program for youth who want to lead with purpose. More than just a degree program, it is a real-world, deeply reflective leadership journey designed to create the next generation of entrepreneurs, policy-shapers, family business leaders, and social change agents.

Who is it not for?

USSL is for young Indians aged 18 to 25 years who:

• Feel called to contribute to nation-building

• Want to go beyond mainstream academia

• Aspire to build enterprises, influence policy, or carry forward legacy businesses with integrity

• Believe leadership is service, Seva, not just status

Those looking for passive classroom learning, conventional credentials, or linear career tracks without a vision for change.

Why USSL Now?

Young urban Indians today are often disconnected from real-world India. USSL bridges this gap through:

• Immersive travel across the country (rural & urban)

• Learning leadership through the lens of Bhaaratiya history and Arthashastra

• Solving problems using modern management tools like Design Thinking, Systems Innovation & Behavioral Science

• Mentorship from changemakers, social entrepreneurs, business leaders, and elders

• Redefining success through Arthasampada — prosperity that is value-driven, sustainable and ethical

• Weekly Mentor Circles

• Monthly Global Dialogues

• On-field Practicums

• Community Living and Reflective Journals

• Yoga, Mindfulness & Inner Inquiry

Year Round Threads (Integrated Throughout the 12 months)

Outcomes & Pathways

Upon completion of USSL, Udayans will build a lifelong peer and mentor network of visionary leaders, and carry a personal vision for Uttishtha Bhaarat. Individually, there are three alternate paths available to a USSL graduate:

• Enter an incubator (like AIC-RMP) to launch a social venture

• Choose a mindful academic path based on lived clarity

• Join a family business as a grounded, strategic contributor

• Founders who have built institutions, enterprises and movements

• Curriculum rooted in Bharatiya wisdom and global best practices

Important Notes

What we expect from you:

• Punctuality and Attendance: Be on campus by 8:45 AM every day. Regular presence is not optional — it is a condition of your scholarship and your commitment to the team.

• Team commitment: You will be placed in a group where people rely on you. No last-minute dropouts, no unannounced absences, no going missing mid-task. If you can’t show up fully, say so — but never disappear.

• Integrity: We expect honesty in your effort, your feedback, and your mistakes. If you fall short, own it. If you need help, ask. Trust is built on truth.

• Discipline with warmth: This is a shared space of learning. Be kind, respectful, and fully engaged. Keep phones away. Listen when others speak. Be the person you’d want to work with.
