Friday Focus: Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam

February 10, 2023

“Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” is a Sanskrit phrase from ancient Indian scriptures that means the whole world is one (my) family. I grew up in India in a multigenerational household and had many aunts and uncles living in my neighborhood. It is hard to remember even a day when we did not have a relative or a friend stopping by and having a snack or meal with us. My concept and definition of a family was framed with these childhood visions, and went well beyond the typical legal definition of a family. It included relatives, family friends, and friends of friends. This vast familial network took care of each other and was vested in the success of every member. I could not be where I am today without the unconditional support of my family. Effective professional organizations are not different – they function like strong families.
