Deepak Jayaraman’s mission is to help people with a growth mindset play to their full potential. He does this in three ways. Firstly, he works with a few growth-minded leaders and teams and helps them play to their full potential (not restricting to the professional domain). He does that by immersing himself in the full context of their lives (professional and personal), by building trust and by being a sounding board on their long journey of transformation and choices. The journey of building context and trust and unlocking the potential is often slow and organic. Deepak strives to engage in long journeys and be the guide on the ride (rather than being the sage on the stage or an occasional guide on the side). Secondly, he likes to create content that can provoke reflection and get people to play to their full potential. This includes the Play to Potential Podcast, P2P Fireside chat series, Blogs, Articles and an upcoming book (to be published in 2024). He realises that his advisory approach is deeply immersive. Hence it can touch only a few lives. The content he creates hopefully makes a difference to a wider set of people that are looking to unlock their full potential. Thirdly, he occasionally conducts short tailored sessions to leadership teams on different elements of Playing to Potential where he distils some of the insights he has gleaned from the podcast, his coaching journey and his life. Deepak Jayaraman is an alumnus of IIT Madras, IIM Ahmedabad and London Business School. In his work with clients, Deepak tries to weave in his understanding of business and first principles problem solving from McKinsey, appreciation of the link between business and leadership from EgonZehnder and a nuanced understanding of human behavior, motivations and change from his work in Coaching and Leadership Development. Deepak is a certified CEO Coach.
