My very early days as a consultant at totus inspired me to explore coaching. I became a coach way back in 2001.

I was motivated to create an Indian coaching institution and thanks to the deep involvement of our co-founders, CFI was born in 2006.

CFI is today an extremely respected coaching and leadership institution in India.

What we at CFI do
