The AI turn
I learned AI to solve real-world business problems.
I can't code. Never have.
Today
A.D.A.P.T. AI Coaching and NCU
I coach senior leaders one-on-one on AI and conduct AI training workshops for corporate teams.

THE QUESTION BEHIND A.D.A.P.T.
What's the one business problem I need to solve today, and can AI help me solve it better and faster?
Most AI learning starts with the tool. I start with the problem on your desk.
WHAT I BELIEVE
How I coach.
Start with the problem, not the tool.
Every session is built on a live problem from your own work. The tool comes second.
One person, one plan.
One-on-one only, never a cohort. Your pace, your business, your examples.
The goal is independence.
Success is when you run it yourself, without me.
A business leader, not a technologist.
I learned to put AI to work the way a business leader has to. That is what I pass on.
Who I work with
Founders, owners and senior leaders (Director, VP, Business Head, CXO) in consumer goods, pharma and manufacturing, across India and the Middle East. Marketing, sales, operations, supply chain, finance and strategy.
