E02 Building Pakistan with Ms. Nasreen Kasuri (Beaconhouse, Chairperson/Founder)

Building Pakistan with Benje Williams

Ms. Nasreen Kasuri is the Founder and Chairperson of Beaconhouse School System, and formerly served as CEO for almost 30 years. She has built Beaconhouse into one of the largest private schools systems in the world, and in this podcast, we will discuss her evolution as a lifelong learner over Beaconhouse's 42-year history: from the initial days as just a project and in her role as a parent just trying to give her own kids a good education, to her transition as an entrepreneur burden with conviction and opportunity, to her evolution as a CEO building Beaconhouse into the institution that it is today, and finally into her role now as Chairperson. (And of course, all along the way being a spouse, being a parent, being a friend, being so many things to so many people). It’s an incredible story of how she has managed to do it all – and still does so much – and there is a tremendous amount from which we can learn. *Building Pakistan is brought to you by the team at Amal Academy (amalacademy.org), with support from +Acumen (plusacumen.org) as our distribution partner.
