The Learn Do Rise philosophy

Everyone should master a skill, achieve self-actualisation, and eventually give back to their community. Asiri Perera, on the Learn Do Rise® philosophy
One

Learn

Master a real, useful skill. A qualification is something no one can take away from you, wherever life takes you.

Two

Do

Put that skill to work in a new career, a new country or a business of your own. Confidence comes from doing.

Three

Rise

Reach your full potential, then reach back. When one woman rises, she brings her family and community with her.

My story

I am a British serial entrepreneur on a mission to empower humankind through one simple idea: Learn Do Rise. I believe every person, and every woman especially, deserves the chance to learn something valuable, use it, and grow into the person she was meant to be.

My own path has been built one qualification at a time. I earned a Diploma in Business Management in India, an LLB (Hons) in Law from Arden University, and an MBA with Merit from Liverpool John Moores University. Today I am advancing my expertise further through a Doctor of Business Administration at the University of Lancashire.

Education opened every door I have walked through. My work is about holding those doors open for others.

My professional journey is backed by membership of the Chartered Institute of Marketing and the Chartered Management Institute, where I am working toward dual Chartered status.

Over my career I have built a portfolio of 16 brands and 3 trademarks, serving thousands of clients across 14 countries. Today I lead a group of service-focused businesses in the UK and Sri Lanka, bridging global education and international job markets so that talent is never limited by where someone was born.

What I stand for

These beliefs guide every course I recommend, every placement I arrange and every business I advise.

  • Women belong at every table

    In boardrooms, classrooms and start-ups. I work to make sure more women get there, and stay there.

  • Education is freedom

    A recognised qualification gives you choices: where to live, what to earn and who to become.

  • Talent has no borders

    Where you were born should never limit where you can study, work or build a business.

  • Lift as you climb

    Success means more when it is shared. Through the Asiri Perera Foundation, giving back is part of the plan.
