Kas - My experiences with your coaching and mentoring have been distinctly different, primarily in your approach and the scope of the impact.Both coaching and mentoring have profoundly impacted my professional life, but in distinctly different, yet complementary, ways. The core difference in your approach has shaped my development in specific areas. Key Difference in your coaching is rarely gave direct advice. Instead, you asked powerful, thought-provoking questions -or- open-ended questions that forced me to look inwards and uncover my own solutions. This process was initially challenging, but it built my confidence in my own problem-solving abilities.

I had the privilege of receiving coaching from Mr. Kasturi Venkatesh during a deeply transitional phase in my life. He was conducting sessions for others at the time and graciously offered to coach me without charging a fee—a gesture I remain truly grateful for. I took the sessions while I was in India, preparing to put down my papers. It was one of the toughest decisions I’ve had to make, and the emotional and professional upheaval that followed was intense. Returning to Hong Kong after that wasn’t easy—I was battling a lot internally, trying to find clarity and direction. Kas's coaching provided exactly that. His sessions helped me untangle my thoughts, prioritize what truly mattered, and bring structure to the chaos I was navigating. He created a safe, non-judgmental space where I could reflect, recalibrate, and move forward with renewed confidence.

Kas as a coach has struck the right balance between guiding me and helping me in identifying answers to my challenges, questions and doubts. He has been a keen listener, patient and the way he directs the flow of each session shows his skills, experience and learnings. He is great at understanding not just what is being said but also the context behind it. He conveys complex ideas in simple ways which make it easy to grasp things. Kas's understanding of not just coaching principles but also human nature and psychology make him a great coach to work with.
