Over the last few months, it was great to interact with you. You were a huge support while I was going through a major transition in my professional career. We brainstormed on several topics of leadership, interpersonal relationships, stakeholder management, people behaviours, strategies (people, business, etc) and also tactical topics such as planning and execution. In all discussions, your perspectives and relevant anecdotes helped a lot in shaping my thoughts. During this time, one of the biggest professional decisions I took was to become an entrepreneur. You helped a lot during that process with your advice and questions. Reflecting back, I entered into these sessions with you as a coach, but I am exiting with a coach who became a good friend. Thanks a lot!

Operations Director

I had the privilege of working with Subroto as my Executive Coach during a pivotal time in my career. His coaching approach went far beyond the traditional, offering profound clarity and a renewed sense of purpose. He introduced me to the concept of ‘feedforward,’ which shifted my focus from evaluating past actions to embracing future possibilities. This forward-looking approach, empowered me to proactively seek solutions and opportunities for growth.

What stands out is Subroto’s ability to listen deeply and guide without imposing, allowing us to discover the best path through complex challenges with confidence. His support has been transformative, both professionally and personally, and I am grateful for his insightful guidance. I highly recommend Subroto to anyone looking to unlock their potential and achieve meaningful, lasting results.

Shwetabh Singh

VP HR (APAC)

It was indeed a privilege as well as a pleasure for me to have you assigned as my coach during these tumultuous months of grappling with changes & transformation. The fact that not one of the regularly scheduled sessions were missed out is a testimony to the high level of engagement in your coaching assignment. Every session brought out some or the other unique aspect which is very much required in this very delicate state of transition in between the career journey.
Thank you for your very valuable advice and support with various practical tips which you never seemed to be short of, given the context of any situation shared with you. More importantly at this juncture, in your own inimitable style sprinkled with positive energy, humour and relevant anecdotes from your vast experience, you instilled in me that missing sense of confidence and self-belief. I look forward to keeping in touch going forward. Thanks again for everything.

“GURU” is the apt description for Subroto. Intellectual guide, personal coach and an expert with transformational ideas. Best part is he works with you, through you only. Enabling, empowering you to do the thinking and come up with simple solutions to pretty complex situations. Situations that may normally bog you down. He arms you with simple tools to free up your bottlenecks and take a leap. Great experience.

Sharadd Jain

VP, Sales & Marketing

I highly recommend Subroto Mukherjee’s exceptional mentorship and coaching services. What sets Subroto apart is his remarkable ability to inspire, motivate and frankness. He creates an environment of trust and openness, allowing individuals to freely share their challenges and concerns without fear of judgement. His empathetic nature, combined with a profound understanding of human psychology and behaviour, enables him to provide insightful guidance that resonates deeply.

I wish him all success.

Today is our last day of the coaching assignment… didn’t realise how 3-months have gone past! I learnt handsomely from the weekly coaching sessions. It wasn’t easy thru distant calls, but you could assimilate things evolving on my side, and used notes from previous discussions so meticulously – this helped building up structured thinking and actions. This has boosted my confidence, and prepared me to respond to the situation as things evolve. Thank you from the core of my heart and I will bother you occasionally in the future too as we have a bond for life!

I would take this occasion to formally thank you for the coaching and mentoring you have provided over the last 6 months. The journey has not been easy and having you to bounce my thought has been a boon. You have challenged me in the best possible manner to get my thinking juices flowing and have to take a broad perspective. It has given me an opportunity to reflect on many things and evaluate the best possible course. The way you had structured the sessions has been very valuable and a lot of pointers you had shared will be with me forever. The timing has been superb. As I sign off the coaching session formally, I wish to reiterate that I would always cherish our discussions and hope to meet you in person someday to toast this success. Look forward to be in touch with you.

Thank you for your help in my journey. I have fully transitioned to consultancy now and finding it exciting. It would not have been possible without your coaching. It kept me in good stead and gave me immense confidence. Thank you once again.

It has been a superb experience working with Subroto as a mentee. I have always looked forward to speaking with him. At the end of the session, I would feel more confident, clear on my goals and know what steps to take. He has a knack of making 2 things very clear – what next steps have to be taken and what to watch out for. I started with my career but it progressed to bigger things along the way with valuable insights on raising kids and managing work. My heartfelt thanks for his time and commitment. I am especially grateful for the positive outlook and confidence he has given me. Kudos and wish many more people have the opportunity to benefit from your guidance.

Today is the last day of my coaching with you. Past 6 months have been very insightful interacting with you and having thought provoking conversations. All the suggestions and examples you gave, case studies you took, assignments and homework you gave helped me to bring focus to what I have been thinking but not acting on due to the way I have been enjoying my break. With the motivation you have given, I am going to take my thoughts seriously, implement them and work hard to realize them. Thanks very much for being a friend. Best wishes to you and your family. See you in this small world somewhere, sometime. Keep in touch. Bye for now Subroto.

At one of the lowest points in my life, LinkedIn came to my rescue and I found a mentor, guide, Guru in the form of Life coach. I have always been aversive of counsellors and life coaches. I was apprehensive initially but by the end of my first round of sessions with Subroto, I found meaning to my work and life again. Life Coaching and relooking at your current life situation needs a new pair of eyes/ perspective. The unsolicited advice come from many but the way Subroto listens and deconstructs the problems and enables actions/solutions gives you all the hope you need to do well for yourself.

I am completely in awe of his method, attitude and perspective. No matter how challenging or trivial the matter it is, Subroto knows exactly how to deconstruct and realign the purpose. I highly recommend EVERYONE to experience “Life Coaching with Subroto” at least once. Give it a shot. With his life experience, journey and training, he knows the challenges every human goes through. Life coaching is not therapy. It’s better. It’s guidance and sometimes we all need some guidance to track our course. My sessions recently ended and I am glad there is a book “Thoughts That Ignite” by Subroto to keep going back. I highly recommend coaching sessions by Subroto. It has helped me find a direction in my life and career.

Your expertise and approach are exactly what I was looking for, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have you as my coach during this pivotal phase.

I am looking forward to our future sessions and the growth that I am certain they will bring. Thankyou once again for being the right coach at the right time for me.
