When your role changes, everything else does too.

High stakes, sharper expectations, and the ambiguity of the new challenge replace the mastery of the past. The right question then, isn’t what’s next — it’s who do you need to become to lead yourself and others through what’s next?

Leader Navigating Next-Level: The ‘Scaling’ Challenge

You are actively moving up or across, and the risk isn't about if you can do the job, but how well and how fast you can scale your impact without burning out.

Organizational Risk: Stalled initiatives and missed ROI on a critical promotion."

Leaders at Crossroads: The ‘Clarity Challenge

You are often highly successful but are experiencing a misalignment between your personal purpose and professional direction. This is a subtle transition, but a high-risk one.

Organizational Risk: High retention risk of a key senior leader and systemic inertia.

Leader Leading Organizational Change: The ‘Resistence’ Challenge

You are a champion of transformation (digital, cultural, or structural). Your challenge is not what to change, but how to sustain the energy and buy-in required without burning out.

Organizational Risk: Failure of major initiatives (M&A, digital) due to change fatigue and adoption resistance.

She knows how to ask the right questions and I felt completely comfortable talking to her, even on some topics I would’ve previously considered uncomfortable. The exercises and visualisations I did with Preeti have made me much more clear about myself and what's important, making me more confident and focused at work. She also helped me realise what my ‘purpose’ is and I am now using this to make career and life decisions."

I would recommend Preeti to anyone who would like to find out more about themselves and change what you are not happy with.”

Taryn Johnson, Senior Business Consultant — Chevron
“What started as coaching became a recalibration. Preeti helped me cut through the noise and see my leadership patterns with clarity. Over time, the conversations shifted from surface-level problem solving to a deeper reset of how I make decisions. I found myself making bigger, braver choices — with less hesitation and far less noise. It wasn’t just coaching; it was a recalibration of how I lead and live.”

Anonymous, Executive Vice President, Fintech
“Preeti’s not just insightful — she holds up a mirror I actually trust. As a founder, I’ve had plenty of people offer advice or frameworks, but very few helped me see myself clearly in the process. Preeti’s approach felt different: she combined strategic perspective with empathy, giving me the courage to face uncomfortable truths and still feel supported. It’s rare to find a coach who can challenge you and hold you at the same time. With her, I felt both.”
