#LifeatLEAD
We bring the best minds on board, nurture them, and challenge them to grow. We value open conversations, individuality and innovation. We pride ourselves on being an organisation without walls – where ideas, conversations and meaningful discussions flow. While life at LEAD may seem a bit chaotic at times, there is a method to our madness. We work smart, have fun, and value personal time. We do happy hours, game nights, foodwalks, and reading clubs. We look out for each other at work, and outside of it.
Starting out as a Research Associate was a very hands-on learning experience for me. It gave me an opportunity to explore my interests in the development sector. Apart from engaging in my core responsibilities, LEAD has also given me a platform to progress professionally and learn, through ideation, extensive stakeholder interactions and the freedom to voice my opinions and thoughts. Through immersive field engagements, I have learnt about the practical challenges in implementing research projects and developed a nuanced understanding of different contexts, and ground realities of the people that we work with.

LEAD is a wonderfully constructive workplace. What struck me the most was the openness to new ideas from all corners and the huge scope for cross-collaboration. LEAD strikes the right balance between work and fun. One of the few workplaces where one feels energized even at the end of a long day, for a few laughs with your teammates can cure everything!
