“What we needed was somebody who was willing to fail, somebody who was willing to experiment, and somebody who wasn't afraid to build the plane and fly it at the same time.” My latest guest Megha Desai brought her sense of adventure and decades of experience in the corporate world to her family’s foundation when she took the helm. She’s since propelled The Desai Foundation to new heights and heads the public foundation from New York where she’s based. What does leadership in the non-profit world look like?
