His coaching approach centers on Reframing problems and obstacles as challenges. “By shifting our perspective, we unlock new possibilities and opportunities for growth," he explains. "I encourage my clients to see challenges as stepping stones rather than roadblocks, fostering a mindset of resilience and innovation.”

Executive Coaching in India
While executive coaching is now accepted globally as a powerful transformation tool, it is still evolving in many traditional setups in India. Giridhar addresses this by demonstrating the transformative impact of coaching through real-world success stories. "When engaging with organizations new to coaching, curiosity is common. I often start with a pilot program, letting them see firsthand how coaching reshapes teams and boosts business outcomes," he explains.
He emphasizes that raising awareness is crucial, but it must be paired with results that show how coaching unlocks potential and drives growth.
