Utsav Mishra

Empowering you to unlock your potential

In my versatile career, I have worked as a business leader with organisations ranging from consumer goods and tech startups to social impact. Leading teams in such diverse environments helped me build a pragmatic and meticulous individual and team coaching repertoire currently used by some of the largest FMCGs, unicorn startups and nonprofits.
My areas of expertise involve building trust and mastering conflict among teams, preparing leaders for 10x scale and designing teams for future. I am also a certified psychotherapist and TEDx speaker and have been counselling young adults on professional and personal issues for the last five years.

1:1 Leadership Coaching

1:1 coaching provides leaders with individualised guidance and resources to enhance their leadership skills, overcome challenges, and achieve their professional and personal goals.
My coaching style focuses on understanding leaders’ personalities and unlocking the mindset shifts that result in committed action. My experience of working in diverse business environments with people from all walks of life allows me to get to the root of the issue quickly.

Team Building

Cohesive teams create a foundation for organizational success by moving forward in sync towards a shared vision.
I enable organisations to build cohesive leadership teams by building trust, mastering conflict and embracing accountability.

Manager Capability Building

Effective managers are a prerequisite for building resilient and high performing organisations.
I coach managers on how to lead their teams effectively. The coaching focuses on practical aspects of execution planning, establishing review mechanisms, giving and receiving feedback, creating a collaborative environment and fostering a growth mindset.

Testimonials

Neelacantan Learning & Development Leader, Tekion

My first encounter with Utsav was when I roped him in to support a manager capability building L&D program, the first of the kind we rolled out in the startup we both were at! From that point on, we have worked together and continue to draw on each other's wisdom. He comes across as someone who carries his skills and capabilities lightly - he is humble and patient and always willing to listen.

Sasha Dichter Co-founder & CEO, 60 Decibels

Utsav coached our India team through a workshop and did an excellent job keeping people's attention, keeping the energy up and helping people go through an 'arc' in the day that was intuitive and built naturally for people which is a hard thing to do. He has a natural style and command of the group, and the content he covered felt aligned to what we aimed to accomplish.

Utsav is a wonderful listener and coach. He very rightly identified my exact problem in the first go itself, something that took me much longer to understand and accept. Talking to him is more than coaching, it is like talking to a friend who cares about you, wants to listen to you, understand your issues and help you out.
