Roots to Rise: Leadership Lessons from a Global Journey

By Nias Puthenveettil

What if leadership didn't start in boardrooms, but under mango trees, on dusty streets, and in classrooms without air-conditioning?

In Roots to Rise, Nias Puthenveettil shares an inspiring and deeply personal journey from a small village in Kerala to global boardrooms in healthcare and technology. Through vivid storytelling and timeless leadership lessons, this memoir offers more than career advice-it's a mirror for anyone navigating ambition, identity, and integrity in a rapidly changing world.

With authenticity and grace, Nias unpacks hard-won insights on:

• Leading without authority or a title
• Balancing confidence with humility
• Building trust in global teams
• Leading AI and innovation with empathy
• Turning setbacks into stepping stones
• And cultivating purpose without burning out

Whether you're a student, an emerging leader, or a seasoned executive, this book offers clarity, courage, and frameworks forged in lived experience-not theory.

If you've ever moved forward quietly without a map, faced uncertainty and kept going, or lifted others while still finding your own footing-Roots to Rise is your companion.

Strengthen your roots. Lift others. Rise together.
