BARC India was a startup and yet not a typical startup. A Joint industry company that set out to measure what India watches. The industry and regulators expected us to ramp up quickly. India doesn’t have a talent pool in media analytics and we started training and making managers out of talented domain experts. This is where Ravi and team stepped in. To put it simply he helped make managers out of some deeply talented people. Through team and personal engagements, and coaching we saw many Heads of Departments transform and become leaders. I am deeply satisfied with the work by Ravi and team and would always recommend anyone else to engage with him.

Fortanix is the fastest growing start-up in its segment. In just over three years it has Google, Intel, Vanguard, PayPal, Standard Chartered Bank as its customers. There are two reasons for the massive success of Fortanix. Its employees include some of the most talented engineers and scientists in the silicon valley, with hundreds of patents and research papers. They were employees at VMware, NVIDIA, Square, etc. These employees are driven by passion to create the world’s greatest security company. Obviously such a team is hugely productive and influential. However a mechanism was still needed to transform their individual heroics into team excellence. This is where Ravi and his team came in, and this became the second reason for success. Ravi helped find the Culture of the company. All executives need to be aligned onm company’s values, goal’s, strengths and weaknesses. If you look to amicably resolve a misalignment among leaders or motivate a discouraged employee, its too late. Time is limited Company’s human architecture can not be an afterthought. Thanks to Ravi, Fortanix has been able to hire right people and get the best work of their careers.

Ravi is an organisation coach with a focus on the individual. He has helped me identify the strengths, weaknesses and blind-spots of each individual on my team with the mindset that no weakness is so deeply ingrained that it can’t be overcome. Yet to maximize an organization’s success how to focus each individual to give his fullest and how to work cohesively as a team. He has been an indispensable ally in our journey.

Eightfold is Series C startup, which has built Talent Intelligence platform that enterprises are using to hire, develop and engage diverse workforce. Company is seeing massive growth, with headcount growing 300% this year. With this growth I was looking for someone who could help me become a better leader. Ravi came in with strong recommendation. I now have been working with him for more than a year. During this time Ravi worked with me personally and together we explored aspects of my personality and thought process to help lead my startup through its initial phase of designing the offering, putting the team together and developing effective relationships with critical leaders in my team. We are now expanding Ravi’s work with other leaders in our company and hope to maximize their own individual contributions but also create better top team alignments during this rapid and large growth phase of our endeavor.
