Case Study
Rahul (name changed) was a Group Chief Strategy Officer in a top Multinational Auto components group and also CEO for one of the companies. He wanted to work on his Executive Presence because being a CXO he was supposed to direct and conduct meetings at very senior levels, and ensure that right decisions are being taken which are in line with the organizational vision. He always perceived himself as someone who is very humble and modest and thus, had a great dislike for arrogant people. He never interfered even when his peers hijacked the agenda during the meetings because he did not want to be seen as an arrogant guy. He wanted to remain respectful at all times. As per initial assessment, he was lacking in assertiveness. His Coaching engagement involved about 6 coaching sessions.
Through coaching Rahul understood that being not rude or arrogant does not mean being silent. One can be assertive at times, when it is required to put across a point. We did some public speaking engagements as a part of his role that helped him to build his confidence. He started creating many opportunities in his company for public speaking so that he can be seen. He also started putting conscious effort in building one to one relationships with peers and stakeholders. Very soon he also started to have pre meeting talks with his peers so that agenda is clear to all. He was able to influence a major decision in his company because of his improved communication skills. Even his stakeholders agreed that they have seen a significant change in his level of assertiveness, confidence and self-expression as a leader.
“Yoshita has a sharp eye to correlate behavioral patterns and arrive at an insight. I have had the chance of working with Yoshita for a period of 6 months. During this tenure, I must say that as a coach and a mentor she has helped me to take the next leap towards professional goals. She has a sharp eye to correlate behavioral patterns and arrive at an insight. The insights she shared were meaningful, sharp and crisp so that it can be incorporated as a real feedback. She excels in her craft and is a constant source of education on matters which we take as “No Brainers”. It has been a pleasure working with her. Her commitment to her work is infectious as she helped me achieve certain goals during here extremely challenging and testing personal times.A highly recommended and respected professional in her domain”
“I engaged Ashwni as an Executive Coach to help me re-energize my team and support me navigate my organization through the challenging times. I have found his coaching and methods very insightful and innovative. Most importantly, his coaching has enabled my journey to a different level of leadership- collaboratively working with my peers and giving more space to and enabling the growth of my team. He is very thorough and uses a variety of methods both at the behavioral level and further deeper level that has made my leadership transformation easier and permanent. Thank you, Ashwni for your impactful and empathetic support and help me become the professional that I have the potential of becoming.”
“I have been able to handle situations and my approach to people and professional situations in far better manner than before. It has been an absolute joy to work with Yoshita. It is very important for a coach and a coachee to gel well and Yoshita & I got attuned to each other in a jiffy. She helped me acknowledge my areas of development in no time and guided me work towards addressing them. My coaching sessions coincidentally happened at a time of a significant change in my professional career and Yoshita’s experience was very handy during such a time. Her empathy and patience are her assets which immensely helped me in my journey toward self-development. Sessions with Yoshita helped me recognise that there were certain strengths of mine which when in overdrive were in a way sabotaging my career growth. (It was very counterintuitive – because they were my ‘strengths’!) She helped me understand how to check my certain strengths from going into overdrive. I have changed for the better and have been able to handle situations and my approach to people and professional situations in far better manner than before. I highly recommend Yoshita to anyone who wants to undergo professional coaching with her.
“I became a more impactful leader and made substantial career progress in 9 months. Within 2 months, with Ashwni’s coaching, I made considerable headway at work, such as communicating more effectively and building trust with my stakeholders. I restructured my team and developed a razor sharp focus on my key deliverables, to increase the team productivity over the next few months. This resulted in enhanced satisfaction levels of my stakeholders. I really benefited being a part of this very effective and results focussed leadership program. I would strongly recommend this program to all leaders who are serious about their career development.”
“Coaching with Ashwni almost felt like I was recalibrating myself! My reactions to situations and people have calmed down and I have learnt to deal with situations with a balanced mind and enthusiasm.
I have learnt techniques, how to transform professional & personal relationships, achieve self-respect, self-confidence, decision making, and how to win people with authenticity, simplicity, and humility.
Ashwni’s 360 Degree support and commitment to his coachee’s success is his key differentiator. I would recommend Ashwni for his deep understanding of human behaviour, his immense exposure to the corporate world, and his years of spiritual and psychological practices.”
“Leaders require courage, humility and discipline to lead and drive change in their organizations and Ashwni inspires leaders to do just that. Ashwni is very skilled in using Marshall Goldsmith Stakeholder Centered Coaching for coaching and leadership development and combines such with his rich business and leadership experience. Ashwni really walks the talk with leaders as he leverages his personal leadership courage, humility and discipline to inspire leaders to do the same. Ashwni is a pleasure to work with and great with leaders who are committed to leadership!”
“Ashwni is a great mentor who adds a lot of value in the shortest of interactions, as he did in my case, by asking very insightful questions, identifying triggers and crafting a meaningful dialogue that marks the beginning of a transformative journey. His expert guidance can help channelize energies in the right direction to create a positive impact in all spheres of your life.”
“Yoshita is an excellent coach & helped me in complete transformation of myself”

How will executive coaching benefit me?
Executive coaching works best when there is a clear goal that you have in mind as a professional and you are willing to put in the work towards that goal. Then executive coaching can support you to grow in your career, transition to another role, or be a better leader for your team. It can create self-awareness and self-mastery as a professional. It can unleash your potential and make you even more successful, while unlocking more joy and energy for you. Overall, it is a transformative process
Can you please tell me a bit about the coaching process.
The coaching process starts with identification of a career goal and an action plan. The measures of success are also identified. Then the coaching conversations keep the client focussed on the achievement of the coaching goal. During this process, there is a lot of exploration of deeper aspects of self, like limiting beliefs, values, identity which get challenged. New behaviors are also created and thus the coachee moves in the direction of lasting transformation.
What areas of leadership are handled through Executive Coaching?
Executive coaching is really about building your leadership skills and as leaders grow up the hierarchy, certain specific leadership behaviour are required. In today’s context, themes include: leaders ability to manage the stakeholders, manage change, handle ambiguity, be emotionally intelligent, build executive presence, develop their own second line of leaders. These are some of the areas where executive coaching can really work well.
Role transitioning is another very important area for Executive Coaching. For example, let’s say, you were a director in a company and you become a vice president. You feel that suddenly your role has gotten elevated and the demands of the senior role are much more than what they used to be. So how do you then develop yourself to deal with that new role. That’s another thing that we help people with.
