“Rahul coached me for my professional career. He has well-defined tools and processes in place, which helped me pinpoint where I need to focus on my professional and personal growth. His coaching style is unique, and it gave me a solid framework to look at things from a different perspective. I would highly recommend Rahul if anyone is looking for coaching help in their professional career."
"I have been solving for complex business problems and analysing businesses for a living for near two decades now. In this adrenaline pumping rush I felt the need for a coach to help me realise my potential as a transformation agent. My search for help ended with a chance meeting with Rahul. I have known him for long and we had lost touch as both of us climbed up the corporate ladder. He is an extremely sensible and level headed guy and when I learnt about his entrepreneurial beginning as a leadership coach, I grabbed the opportunity to take his advice. Thank you Rahul for your time and invaluable assistance."
“My interaction and experience with Rahul can be compared to a map in an unknown city. I knew where I was and I kind of had so many options my way but I wasn't aware of how to pick the right destination. His approach was very insightful, probing the right amount to get the right details, organized so elegantly and presented in such a manner that I had complete clarity on what I should do next. His sessions and curated questions and analysis helped see where I will need to focus in the coming years until I reach my target.”
“The perspectives shared by Rahul in his feeds really caught my attention…I decided to engage with him in a curated coaching session…I must say it has been a decision which I am glad I took. Rahul's engagement models are very realistic and fact based. It gives you a solid perspective about one self (self-discovery) and current standing. I was able to connect with him and discuss several dilemmas on the work front and the perspectives that he shared with me on professional and financial matters has been very useful for me to carve out a strategy for my future career progression and financial decisions.”
“I was struggling to find my way forward w.r.t my career. I approached Rahul with a simple ask, "How do I get a better opportunity outside?". What followed has left me re-energized and refocused in a very pleasant way. Rahul's approach is very simple - he basically uses 2 tools - a mirror and an empty drawing board with lots of crayons. He then guides you to look in the mirror, understand your true self, and draw yourself. By the time you finish, you are ready to head back.”
Aligning Business and Talent Strategies in a High-Growth Environment Workshop: "It was a great and eye-opening workshop. My leadership team was exposed to the concept of how organizations move through multiple S-curves and why it is important to understand the point of disruptions and the subsequent impact on the talent strategies. Thank you for bringing these important concepts and ideas to our annual offsite."
“Rahul has been an impeccable coach and mentor for me. He gives a patient hearing to the challenges one is facing in his/her professional journey. His coaching sessions have been an eye-opener for me, providing me a reality check and a 360 degree holistic view on how I can and should navigate my professional career trajectory balancing my personal commitments. His coaching style, methodologies and tools have not only helped me unravel my strengths and weaknesses but have also provided me with complete clarity on what and how part of reaching my end objectives. Most importantly he has reinvigorated and enthused in me a sense of optimism that I can achieve my life goals, albeit through proper planning, focus on strong execution and overcoming my past inner demons.”
Leadership and Team Building Workshop: "First of all I would like to thank you for all your guidance and encouragement, my team felt very lucky that they got the opportunity to be part of your coaching session. Our team found you lively, full of energy, inspiring and encouraging. I am sure learnings from these and more up- coming workshops will have great impact on our team."
"All the sessions were very energizing because of Rahul, the knowledge he brings in, the insights he shares and the tools he uses for coaching delivery; all these are ace, strategic and compelling. Rahul is not only skillful but also a very good coach for leadership development, I strongly believe that his great human side is the magic behind all the success he secures in developing talents and transforming individuals."
“Rahul has been a great coach and mentor. I had productive professional coaching sessions with him, wherein I gained time management, financial management, leadership and communication skills. Goal setting discussion with Rahul has helped me to plan and visualize my short term as well as long term goals effectively. He is very responsive and each session with him was well planned and organized.”
“I reached out to Rahul with expectation of re-validating the approach I have for my career…what I ended up getting through the session was much higher than my expectations. Rahul has introduced some very tangible ways of re validating and at times knowing things about myself that I didn’t even knew previously. This approach gave me wholistic review of where I am currently in my career and what possible steps, I need to take to further improve my career.”
“I reached out to Rahul since I was in dire need of a true coach who could give me unbiased opinion and provide me with coaching around career growth and leadership. I was glued to Rahul's coaching style from the first day. The lively interactions and use of proven coaching tools ensured that I took away a lot from every session. With each session, Rahul showed me a mirror and I started working on my weaknesses in a more rationale way. One big takeaway for me from the sessions has been self-awareness and I am pretty conscious of applying some of the techniques to real-life situations.”
“I needed an external perspective to guide me towards building required capabilities and charting out roadmap for short term and long-term career path. Through the interaction sessions, Rahul has helped me understand my skillsets on the backdrop of an ever-evolving industry landscape and accordingly set goals both on the professional and personal spheres and more importantly how to pragmatically convert these goals into action plan.”
“Rahul helped me understand how to convert technical knowledge into solving client problems. I treat him as a mentor on the personal front as well wherein I reach out in case I am in a dilemma. He helps me solve my problems not by giving the solution but helping me structure how do I go about looking at the problem and choose the best option.”
“Getting coached involves a lot of emotions coming out and a lot of open-heart discussions. I felt secure and confident while discussing my problem statement with Rahul without a fear of being judged. The structure of this coaching engagement is designed in such a way that first you get to know which dots you require to prepare a big picture of your career and by the end of last session, you can connect all the dots."
"I started looking for various career options. I was clueless. That's when a friend told me about Rahul. Rahul has a very pleasant personality, great listener, practical, positive and motivating. When he gives you a task, he'll work along with you to achieve it. As a coach, Rahul has helped me shape my thought process, choose one career path and move in the same direction. He is a great mentor, a coach and guide."
“Rahul comes with a rare blend of professional and personal coaching skills. His methodology involves understanding the client psyche and help the latter to link that with his scientific tools of coaching. Our sessions were invigorating, diving deep into the matter and ended with lots of revelations. He helped me to prepare my career vision and helped with the tools and methodologies to achieve those.”
“Rahul makes sure that he comes prepared for all his sessions as it is not just his job, he understands that someone is investing their time and money on him and believing in him that he will be creating a positive impact on his/her career. He works for that belief, thus he continues to earn trust and win hearts. His vast strategic expertise was very helpful for me. I was able to work with him on the key goals that I would want to achieve as part of this session, and he made sure that I attain that as part of the session completion.”
“I was coached by Rahul when I was really in need of some help planning out my next few years of my career. His coaching has enabled me to clarify my long-term ambitions and I gained a lot of insight using his approach and overall attitude towards the work and relationships. Rahul’s style is the right blend of motivation and assertiveness which is very good for professionals that want to re-evaluate their career goals and require motivation and accountability.”
“I had the opportunity to undergo leadership and career coaching sessions with Rahul. He knows how to get the best out of you. He comes with a very structured approach to meet the coaching goals one step at a time. At the end of all sessions you would definitely feel more clear about your goals and how to achieve them. He makes sure we improve our thought process and decision making capabilities with each session. Would highly recommend a session with him for anyone who wants to assess their professional journey.”
“I have interacted with Rahul during my formal coaching sessions, whereby he was my mentor and coach. His approach to resolve issues pertaining to both personal and professional development, was structured, specific, logical, straight forward and pragmatic. Every interaction with him was a learning experience focused around long term improvement. I strongly recommend him for his coaching skills. He is like a long term mentor to me with whom I would never want to lose contact.”
“Crossing paths with Rahul was serendipitous but exactly what I needed at the time – an experienced, talented strategy professional wanting to guide fellow professionals in taking right career path and realize true potential. He brought in a rare blend of corporate experience, coaching skills, lucid communication and most importantly empathy for coachee. The coaching process itself helped me in taking a stepping back and reflect on my own professional persona and priorities.”
“I had some general assumptions about my strengths and weakness, my professional ways of working et all. Over the course of the sessions Rahul helped me with opening up my thought process to areas that I was completely blindsided. At the end of the course I have a clear understanding of what needs to be changed as well as a framework to achieve it. I would highly recommend his to anyone who wants to validate/have a second opinion/re evaluate their professional journey and how to make it more impactful.”

His coaching tools has helped me to realign my approach both personally and professionally."
“Rahul has helped me get clarity on the direction I want to take my career in years to come and also equipped me with the tools that I can use along the way. Rahul has been massively helpful...He always studied the material upfront and knew the details to be covered ahead of the calls…The coaching was not just limited to career aspects but covered the areas like personal strengths, relationships and personal finance planning as well"
“I am going through a transition phase in my career and needed some reality check... Rahul's data-driven coaching framework enabled me to define my future professional and personal goals, identify my strengths, and leverage those. His coaching style is unique, which pushes you to think hard enough before moving forward and lets you question your thought process. I admire his honest inputs throughout the coaching process, which helped clarify what's next for me. "
“Thank you for your inspiring, relieving, insightful and energizing discussions we had! Many valuable insights, new perspectives were shared by you. It is amazing, but just in a time of few hours of discussion, we were able to view the situation from a completely different perspective in a structured way."
“I am a person with complete vision loss. After a 5-year career run, few things start to get conflicted, what should be my next career move, how should I prepare for it, and stay relevant. We did almost 6-7 sessions, wherein we touched upon both professional and personal life. The methodology was so logical with so many tools that stimulated my thought process. I was able to figure out my priorities and action plans."
“While looking for options to get some direction in my career, I got to know about Rahul. The coaching sessions really helped me to get a structured approach to get more clarity and helped me plan my goals to achieve in my career.

“Over time, Rahul has guided me on multiple problems…professional and personal…I was faced with a dilemma whether I should stay in US or find a role in India…we had multiple sessions, he understood my problems and he tailored the solution as per my need. The best aspect of having Rahul has a mentor/coach is that he has got tremendous experience…apart from this, he has a unique ability to understand your problems and be in your shoes."

This potent combination allowed me…come out with a clear roadmap for the future"
“I used to get anxious and had trouble on the EQ front. Rahul listened to my problems patiently and helped me understand the way out. I benefited a lot from the leadership numerous workshops and the tools & techniques which made me a better version of myself. I also learned a lot about leadership through the different use cases and examples he introduced. I look up to him as a leadership coach who helped me finesse my emotional qualities and overall social skills."
“Working with Rahul was an experience that I will always look upon as transformational. He has amazing clarity of thought which I have found in very few people. Also, the fact that Rahul has donned multiple hats during his wonderful corporate stint means that he is able to coach from a deep and broad experience base.

Throughout the engagement, Rahul used a proven set of tools to understand my career aspirations, strengths, weaknesses and helped me develop an actionable roadmap to fulfill my aspirations. I would highly recommend Rahul to professionals who are looking for a trusted and an expert coach to enable career transformation."
“My experience with Rahul was truly exciting. At the time of approaching him for his advise, my mind was filled with lot of ambiguity about career progression. I was clueless in terms of how to gain clarity and make right career decision. During my interactions with him, I have shared all my concerns and aspirations and he shared a customized template with me to fill it and I did so. Looking at the data, he made few suggestions and I was convinced with them. I have more clarity now and I am able to decide my next action plan.”
“I was looking for a life coach who could help me with direction, clarity and help me with strategy and planning for my career and life.

But he surely will help us in exploring various paths, instead of random movement.”

My first interaction with Rahul made me feel I should talk to him more. Rahul's sessions are truly engaging and insightful. He brings a lot of clarity to the thought process with the help of tools and frameworks. One of the key takeaways from his sessions was "how to structure any goals into simple achievable tasks".

He helped me to understand my current career stage and what could be the next steps in my career path.With every session, I felt much more positive about my career path and started manifesting the goal with detailed plan.

He did not give stereotype advice on my issues instead he went deeper to understand the root cause(s).

He asked pertinent questions to understand my thinking process and bottlenecks I as a person was facing.
He is very methodical and his approach is coaching is very scientific and fact based.
His tools and techniques brings the hidden insights from the recess of your subconscious to the forefront.

I would like to thank him for his hard work, coaching and guidance and would recommend anyone looking for a career or life coaching to witness his MAGIC at least Once!!"
"In one of my first discussions with Rahul, we discussed the need for a Professional Coach. Athletes engage Lifelong Coaches to keep them performing consistently at the optimum level, its the same logic with which I ended up signing up for Rahul's coaching program. Rahul has helped me tremendously in a pivotal year as I was gearing up for a next level role. In a high paced Corporate environment, you need someone who has been through the war-rooms in your corner - I find that Rahul fills this gap perfectly. He has a distinct knack of understanding the problems of his mentees and then tap on his Exec experience to present a unique top-down perspective. I find his advice to be simple and immediately actionable - devoid of buzzwords. He has pushed me to go about my career planning a lot more methodically. Additionally, he has also cultivated an engaging community of Senior Tech Professionals that provide a lot of add on value - Networking, Crowdsourcing Solutions, Pointed Perspectives etc. If you want to operate like a Corporate Athlete, engage a Coach like Rahul."
"Career journeys are like a marathon (needing different strategies at different stages) and like any marathon, you need a Coach to help you train and plan for it!
Having reached somewhere around the mid point of my career, I was thinking of what’s next and how to plan for it..
That’s where I came across Rahul and Transform Ahead and the experience has been exceptional! Rahul’s coaching helped me understand my strengths and weaknesses, vision, and career progression goals through deep self-reflection exercises
Rahul’s ability to listen deeply to the problem, get to the crux of it, and then provide clarity with a simple message that sticks with you, is truly exceptional (True “aha” moments for me).
He doesn’t prescribe but will guide your thoughts in a way that you get the answer from inside!
I thoroughly enjoyed my engagement with Rahul. I highly recommend Rahul as a Coach and wish him and Transform Ahead all the best in positively impacting people’s lives!"
