About Me

With 25+ years in senior corporate leadership with large MNC's i.e. Bpb , Saint Gobain & Everest Industries Ltd , I have led large teams and business transformations while closely observing what truly challenges leaders-navigating transitions, managing increased complexity, and sustaining performance under pressure.

This led me to evolve into an Executive Coach & Mentor, partnering with mid-career and senior leaders at critical inflection points. My focus is not just insight but sustainable behaviour change that translates into visible leadership impact.

I combine real-world leadership experience with coaching grounded in International Coaching Federation principles, NLP, and Marshall Goldsmith Stakeholder Centered Coaching.

Outcomes leaders experience:
• Clarity on “what next” and confident career decisions
• Stronger executive presence and stakeholder influence
• Successful transition into larger or unfamiliar roles
• Improved alignment between values, actions, and results
• Consistent, measurable behaviour change not just awareness

I partner with leaders ready to move from reflection to meaningful, sustained impact.

    1-on-1 Coaching: A Partnership for Real, Lasting Change

    This is not transactional coaching it’s a deep, outcome-focused partnership designed to help you navigate career transitions, leadership challenges, and critical inflection points with clarity and confidence.

    With 25+ years in senior corporate leadership, I bring real-world experience of leading teams, managing complexity, and making high-stakes decisions combined with coaching grounded in International Coaching Federation principles.

    My approach focuses on both being (mindset, identity, presence) and doing (decisions, actions, results) ensuring sustainable behaviour change, not just insight.

    Ways We Can Work Together

    1. Career & Leadership Clarity (4 Sessions)
    Define direction, align priorities, and make confident decisions at key career or leadership crossroads.

    2. Coaching Engagement (8 or 12 Sessions)
    A structured journey for deeper transformation building leadership presence, confidence, and sustained progress over time.

    3. Deep-Dive Session (Single Session)
    A focused, high-impact conversation to work through a specific challenge, transition, or decision.

    Leadership Behaviour Change (Advanced Engagement)

    For leaders seeking visible and measurable change, I offer longer-term engagements (typically 6–12 months) integrating principles from Marshall Goldsmith Stakeholder Centered Coaching.

    This includes:
    • Focus on 1–2 critical leadership behaviours
    • Structured engagement with key stakeholders
    • Periodic anonymous feedback to track progress

    The result is measurable, sustainable behaviour change visible to stakeholders, not just felt internally.

    What You Can Expect

    • Ability to navigate transitions and complexity effectively
    • Alignment between values, behaviour, and impact

Client Experiences, Captured

When I began my six months coaching journey with Rakesh, I had a clear goal to become a CHRO within 10 years, but I was weighed down by fears, self-doubt, and a misalignment between my inner and outer self. It was a fantastic six months journey I will never forget.

In moments of confusion, Rakesh showed me not only how to set meaningful goals, but also how to overcome procrastination, internal obstacles, and self-limiting patterns. His coaching created the space, structure, and tools to reflect deeply, uncover blind spots, and shift from being reactive to mindfully responsive.

I learned to communicate with clarity, channel my energy purposefully, and plan my career with intention. His structured goal-setting approach helped me define what I truly want, assess the gaps, and commit to meaningful action.

I now have a concrete plan toward my CHRO aspiration, supported by greater awareness, alignment, and confidence. This journey has transformed how I see myself, lead myself, and shape my future. I wholeheartedly recommend Rakesh to any professional seeking clarity, confidence, and alignment in their career.

My coaching journey with Rakesh over three months has been genuinely transformative. I deeply appreciate the sincerity and commitment he brought to every session. He often went beyond the scheduled time, ensuring I had the space to reflect, explore, and truly internalize each insight.

This process has strengthened my organizational skills and created meaningful shifts in how I show up professionally. I have become more intentional about building visibility engaging in networking opportunities, being present in key conversations, and allowing my confidence to grow naturally through these interactions.

Another significant change has been in how I view situations and people. I now approach interactions with more empathy and a wider perspective, helping me reach balanced conclusions and build stronger, healthier relationships.

These shifts, along with many other insights from our conversations, have already begun shaping my personal and professional life. I feel more grounded, self-aware, and prepared to navigate challenges with clarity and purpose.

I am truly grateful for Rakesh’s guidance and support, and I look forward to carrying these learning’s into the next phase of my growth journey.

When I began coaching with Rakesh four months ago, I was at a career crossroads aspiring for a larger leadership role while battling self-doubt. The journey was well-designed, customized to my needs, and thoughtfully structured.

Through our sessions, he created a safe, thought-provoking space that helped me embrace mindful leadership  being aware, present, and adaptive. I learned that flexibility is not compromise, but wisdom, and I overcame my fear of losing relationships.

His structured goal-setting framework aligned my intentions with tangible actions, making me more grounded, focused, and confident. The sessions were not just valuable but also deeply engaging, supporting both learning and self-reflection.

I would highly recommend Rakesh as a coach for anyone aspiring to lead with impact and self-belief.

I had the opportunity to have sessions with Rakesh. My sessions with him re-instilled confidence in my decisions. He is a patient listener and a keen observer.

His soft-spoken nature and caring gestures added to the overall experience. Rakesh created a safe space for me to express what I was truly seeking in the sessions. He empathized with my emotions and helped align my thoughts in the process of self-discovery.

The sessions brought me a lot of clarity. Thank you, Rakesh, for all your coaching support.

It was a powerful and thought-provoking conversation that brought out many hidden and often overlooked aspects of life. Rakesh’s deep understanding of human psychology, combined with his extensive corporate leadership experience, added a unique depth to the session. His ability to connect real-world challenges with inner reflection made the conversation not only insightful but also highly relatable and impactful.

Kulwinder Singh | Enterpruneur and Sr. Professional Ex. Coal India Ltd

The session helped me pause and take a deeper, more honest look at my journey and achievements—something I hadn’t done in a while. It brought clarity to how far I’ve come and helped me reconnect with the strengths and capabilities I had begun to overlook. More importantly, it rebuilt my confidence at a time when I needed it most, and reminded me that I already have the resources within me to navigate this challenging phase with greater clarity and resilience.

Akanksha Velagapalli | Mid-Career IT Professional

I came into the session feeling uncertain about where to head next, with a lot of thoughts but little clarity. Rakesh’s thoughtful, well-placed questions helped me reflect more deeply and uncover what truly matters at this stage. His practical guidance made things feel more structured and actionable. By the end of the session, I could see a clear way forward. I left feeling lighter, more focused, and ready to take my next step with renewed confidence and direction.

Shreya Yadav | Teaching professional

The Clarity Coaching session was truly insightful and enriching. Rakesh created a space that encouraged honest reflection, helping me look deeper into myself and reconnect with my core values. His thoughtful approach made the conversation both meaningful and refreshing. I walked away with greater self-awareness and a clearer perspective, definitely a valuable experience and highly recommended!

Allen | IT professional Amazon

It was an incredible discovery session that gave me meaningful insights into trusting my inner calling and intuition, especially when navigating important decisions. Rakesh also helped me understand how structured research and thoughtful exploration can strengthen and validate those instincts, leading to more confident and well-informed choices. I truly appreciated the balance between reflection and practicality in the conversation. All my queries were addressed with clarity and patience, leaving me feeling satisfied, content, and much more confident about my direction forward.
