Abstract

It takes a village to raise a child. The truth of this proverb is reflected in the state of women’s empowerment in India. Empowering women at a societal level is the first step toward developing women leaders. It takes the collective efforts of government agencies, world organizations, banks, trade unions, chambers of commerce, academia, think tanks, corporations, and nongovernmental organizations to empower women for leadership. The advantages of empowering women transcend individual and family levels and have implications for economic growth of the nation as well. In this chapter, we look at collaborations and partnerships that exist for empowering women for political leadership, economic leadership, business leadership, and social leadership in India. We then discuss the strengths and advantages of having collaborations to achieve the objective of developing women leaders in India and the practical challenges of working collaborations.
