Conversations That Inspire
Dr. Mehta's belief in service extends to the young. Coffee with CKM is an educational initiative he created to inspire and motivate the next generation, a conversation series in which he sits down with stalwarts who have built remarkable lives, and draws out the insight, struggle, and discipline behind their success so that young people can learn from it.
