🎙️ InspiringLeadership Podcast: Major General Himalaya Thapa – A Life of Service, Strategy & Global Impact 🌍
In this compelling episode of InspiringLeadership, we sit down with Major General Himalaya Thapa (Retd.), a highly decorated officer whose military and diplomatic career has spanned nearly four decades and five continents.
From his beginnings in the Royal Nepalese Army in 1978 to his elite training at Sandhurst and strategic studies in Washington, D.C., General Thapa’s path reflects a deep commitment to leadership, learning, and global peace. He shares insights from his roles in critical UN peacekeeping missions—from Lebanon and Sierra Leone to Nepal—offering a rare perspective on conflict resolution and international cooperation.
We explore his pivotal leadership during the 2015 Gorkha Earthquake, his time as Nepal’s Military Attaché to the UK and France, and his continued impact in academia, strategic policy, and diplomacy post-retirement.
Now a Senior Thematic Expert for Nepal’s Policy Research Institute, General Thapa brings his wisdom to issues ranging from foreign affairs to climate change and national security.
Tune in for a masterclass in purposeful leadership, international strategy, and a life dedicated to service and nation-building.🎧
