About me

KNOW ABOUT ME

From Boardrooms to Breakthroughs

I am Rakesh Verma, a former corporate leader turned ICF-Certified Coach & Mentor.

For over 25 years, I led high-performing teams, scaled businesses, and delivered transformations across global and Indian organisations. Yet what truly inspired me wasn’t the numbers or titles, it was the people I mentored into confident, purpose-driven leaders.

Today, I help ambitious professionals gain clarity, lead with confidence, and achieve sustainable growth—without losing themselves in the process. All within a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential space.

With purpose. With heart. From one human to another.

From Insight to Impact: My Journey

With 25+ years in corporate leadership, I bring a unique blend of real-world business acumen and deep coaching expertise to help ambitious professionals thrive.

My Legacy & Expertise

My Corporate Leadership Legacy

  • Scaled businesses in new-age building products and innovative construction solutions.
  • Mentored and developed 1,000+ team members into high-impact professionals.
  • Designed and executed 100-day transformation plans unlocking peak performance.
  • Led direct and cross-functional teams to consistently exceed goals.

My Turning Point

Alongside building businesses, I was investing in my own growth. Landmark programs, ICF-accredited coach training, NLP, and Mindfulness weren't just certifications they became catalysts for transformation.

They made me calmer, more grounded, and more purposeful. In 2024, I took the bold step of leaving the corporate world to coach full-time dedicating myself to guiding professionals through meaningful transitions and breakthroughs.
