Dr. Rohini Jayaratne

The World Lifetime Achievement is perhaps the highest accolade obtainable as it does not define a singular moment or achievement, but the cumulative success of an entire life.

The American Biographical Institute is an organisation that for forty-one years has studied the lives and achievements of great men and women through biographical publications. Only a select handful of the Institute’s total biographies are deemed worthy of this distinction.

Dr. Jayaratne’s distinguished career includes work as a private sector to the Governor of Southern Province of Sri Lanka; the author of books on business management and children’s fair tales; a free-lance journalist; management consultant; and women’s activist.

Dr. Jayaratne has been honoured with numerous awards and recognitions including being honoured by the President of Sri Lanka, in 2006 with the International Commemorative Woman of the Year Award for contributions in the field of Management and other achievements to uplift women and society.

Dr. Jayaratne’s biography has been highlighted in numerous biographical reference directories around the world. The American Biographical Institute was established in 1967, and is a reference publisher documenting biographical information for research.

ABI reference source books are used by and provide authoritative guides for business consultants, researchers, reporters, scholars, biographers, librarians, corporations, interviewers, students, historians, sociologists, and many others. Since establishment, it has been the aim of the Institute to publish factual, permanent profiles of accomplished, active and dedicated individuals who make substantial contributions to international, national, state, and regional levels.

There is no discrimination as to the level of contribution, but only in the effort and involvement in achieving worthwhile endeavours that affect society as a whole.
