Five intensive cohort programmes for senior HR and business leaders at Indian scaleups. Live weekends over Zoom. Capstones built in your own company. Certification on completion.
Consulting firms charge ₹15–80 lakhs for the work covered in these programmes — reorg plans, comp redesigns, workforce plans, AI deployments, analytics builds. The output is usually a slide deck. The capability stays with the consulting firm.
A cohort programme inverts that. Same depth — taught to your team, not done for them. Each participant ships a CEO-ready artefact for their own company within 4 weeks. The capability stays inside.
