"Lighthouse has worked extensively with Sushil over the past years, and our time with him has been nothing short of completely transformational—both at the individual and the organizational levels. He is an incredibly talented coach, and has thoughtfully and tactfully guided us through self exploration, interpersonal relationship dynamics and organizational value and culture definition—and ensured that we convert intention to action and practice! Most importantly, Sushil has a soft, personal “touch” backed with great science and experience; he listens more than preaches, asking the “right” questions at the “right” times, making for an immensely productive, enjoyable and intense time together. I could not recommend Sushil more highly to anyone."
William Sean Sovak, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Lighthouse Advisors India
"Sushil has successfully customized the interventions according to our business context and organisational needs. His understanding of people, extensive preparatory work and meticulous execution of the interventions have helped us - one of the important one is our exponential growth strategy. Sushil’s ability to simplify complex and difficult subjects and keeping the focus on deriving outcomes that are implementable and track(able) makes the interventions that much more relevant."
Rajendra Velagala, Business Director, Crop Protection, BASF India Ltd.
“Sushil has been working with our executive leadership team over the past year, guiding and supporting them to align their individual and team goals. Everyone involved in the monthly sessions with Sushil has seen significant growth in their personal effectiveness, and a subsequent positive impact on the business as a whole. Sushil has enabled them to become more self-aware, focused, and strategic in their approach, benefitting both their work and personal lives. I would highly recommend any business or individual to seek his support and we look forward to continue working with him”
Andrew Robertson, Chief Executive Officer, AMS Sustainable Development Solutions
“I had seen Sushil work with the leadership team of one of the businesses of BASF India during my tenure as Chairman & Managing Director. I saw the team emerge out of a declining business performance and a leadership change with greater resilience and team work. His ability to coach the team and individuals within the team enabled them to set the right priorities and take on collective and challenging goals. Over the years, the team went on from success to success. In my subsequent role as MD & CEO of PI Industries, I reached out to Sushil to address a similar situation with one of my teams and saw him in action from close quarters. He is a Master at helping teams to set priorities, challenge each other and strive for challenging business goals. Behind his soft and quiet demeanor, is a determination and relentless focus to help individuals and teams to be better. His is not just a one-time intervention but he persists as long as it takes to see visible results. I would highly recommend Sushil”
Raman Ramachandran, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, PI Industries
"I hired Sushil for a management off-site in India where he led our group through a series of creative visioning exercises on the future and how we would lead a major transformation. He is a smart, clear, insightful thinker and a masterful facilitator. I have hired 10+ other business facilitators in the past and Sushil provided unique insight and motivation for the team and I would hire him again without hesitation. I strongly recommend him."
-Dayton Semerjian, General Manager, Customer Service and Support, CA Technologies
"Overall, my experience was extremely fulfilling. It was a coaching session combined with mentoring which made it even more impactful. I was able to come up with my solutions and also get some very useful tips and guidance from Sushil’s experience. I have had professional coaching sessions earlier, but this one particularly had a profound impact on my self-belief and self-confidence. It left me feeling energized and happy. Sushil, you make an excellent coach and I wish I had more time with you!"

“ I have been working with Sushil as my coach for the past 8 months and I can’t thank him enough for the positive development that I have achieved and that my colleagues have seen in my growth. Sushil has proven a great mentor and someone that I can relate to with confidence and ease. Sushil provides the tools for real honest introspection and his methodology of having one discover the way forward makes the journey far more rewarding as the individual comes up with answers.
My transition in moving from an operational work function to a strategic executive role has been significantly enhanced through the time that Sushil has invested with me. I will highly recommend Sushil to individuals and companies that require senior-level coaches and will continue using Sushil as my coach. "
Coachee, Country Business Head at a Multinational Services Organisation
“ I cannot praise enough the usefulness which Sushil’s coaching has had on both my personal and professional life. Sushil’s approach was of discovery and guidance on the personal journey of self-development. He helped me frame a structure to access my weaknesses and strengths. He then helped in taking some of the most challenging goals into bite-sized actionable chunks and consistently followed up on our regular interactions. His coaching has enabled me to peel away multiple layers of my persona and chisel out what I am capable of"
