ALPHA SHIFT
DEPTH:
Book Session →
FOLIO 01 · SITUATION[INWARD QUESTION]

Something on your mind?

Something you’re thinking about.

A problem you’re trying to solve.

A conversation you’re not quite sure how to have.

Or perhaps just a feeling that something needs to move.

You don’t necessarily know what it is.

And that’s okay.

The conversation starts with where you are, not a canned framework.
FOLIO 01 · REFRAME[THE SECOND LOOK]
Chetan's original river crossing sketchnote
The River Crossing · Another step is needed, and more than one path is possible.

Sometimes, you already know enough.

Yet there’s still a missing piece. Something you can’t quite put your finger on.

FOLIO 02 · PERSPECTIVE[A BETTER QUESTION]

Maybe it starts with a better question.

Or a clearer observation.

Perhaps you see a possibility you hadn’t considered.

Perhaps you decide to do something differently.

And that’s where the shift begins.

FOLIO 02 · ACTION[THOUGHT TO ACTION]
Chetan's original bulb sketchnote: thought becomes insight becomes action
Thought → Possibility → Action · The shift is not complete at the “aha”; something is done with it.
FOLIO 03 · THE SHIFT[PURPOSE]

Make the shift.

Not everything needs a new plan.

Sometimes, it needs a new way of looking at the old one.

• A thought becomes a possibility.

• A possibility becomes a decision.

• A decision becomes action.

Small shifts can change what happens next.

FOLIO 03 · PRACTICE[HOW WE WORK]

That’s what Alpha Shift is about.

• Creating the space to explore.

• To think differently.

• To see more clearly.

• To find what matters.

And then to do something about it.

How we work

It might begin with a conversation.

It might be a workshop that gets people thinking and doing.

It might be a deeper journey with a leader, a team or an organisation.

Or it might be something we haven’t put into a box yet.

We start where you are.

SECTION 03 · PROGRAMMES OF WORK

Seven ways to work. Calibrated to your depth.

PROGRAMME 01[FEATURED PROTOTYPE]

THINK BETTER

See possibilities. Solve better problems.

Keep coming back to the same answer? Or wondering if there’s another way?

Choose the depth: 60 mins — Open it up · 180 mins — Work it through · 360 mins — Make it usable.
DEPTH SPECIFICATION[DYNAMIC CALIBER]
DEPTH 60M · OPEN IT UP

Keep coming back to the same answer? Or wondering if there’s another way?

We start where you are. Unpacking the core knot without premature conclusions or forced frameworks.

DEPTH 180M · WORK IT THROUGH

Six Lines of Systematic Inquiry

• More ways to approach a real situation.

• Beyond the obvious.

• Sideways.

• Logically.

• Through better questions.

• Not more thinking. More ways to think.

DEPTH 360M · MAKE IT USABLE

02+ DETAILS

COMMUNICATE CONFIDENTLY

Be clear. Be heard. Have the conversations that matter.

Got something important to say — but not quite sure how to say it?

• Know what matters.

• Find the words.

• Say what you mean — clearly and confidently.

• Clarity before confidence.

Try this:

Before an important conversation, ask:

What do I really want them to understand?

Start there.

03+ DETAILS

STORYTELLING

Turn ideas into stories people remember.

Have something worth sharing — and want people to remember it?

• Find the story in what you want to say.

• Give it shape.

• Use words that help people see it.

• Make the point worth remembering.

Try this:

Think of something you need to explain.

Instead of asking:

“What do I want to say?”

Ask:

“What do I want them to see?”

04+ DETAILS

OWNING THE ROLE

Step up. Take charge. Create movement.

Stepping into more responsibility — without necessarily feeling completely ready?

• Step into the responsibility you’ve been given — or chosen to take on.

• Understand what the role now asks of you.

• Use what you already bring.

• You don’t have to have it all figured out to step up.

Try this:

Ask:

What does this role need from me now?

And:

What am I already bringing to it?

05+ DETAILS

PEAK PERFORMANCE

Understand your mind. Access its power.

Ever had days when everything just seems to click — and others when it doesn’t?

• Your best performance isn’t always about trying harder.

• Notice what brings out your best.

• Understand the state you’re in.

• Learn how to find your way back to it.

• Your best is already something you’ve experienced.

Try this:

Think of a time when you were really good at what you were doing.

What was different about you in that moment?

06+ DETAILS

NAVIGATE UNCERTAINTY

Not sweating over the future.

Spending too much time worrying about what might happen next?

• We can’t know everything that’s coming.

• But we can notice what’s happening now.

• Separate what we can influence from what we can’t.

• And find a useful next step.

• You don’t need to know what happens next to decide what you do next.

Try this:

Ask yourself:

What do I know?

What can I influence?

What can I do next?

07+ DETAILS

PERSONAL BRANDING

Show up with clarity. Be remembered for what matters.

Do people know what you bring — and what you’d like to be known for?

• There’s probably more to you than the part people usually see.

• Things you’re good at.

• Things you’ve done.

• Things you know about.

• Things you care about.

• And perhaps a few things people wouldn’t expect.

• It’s all part of you.

• The question is how you let people discover it — in person and online.

Try this:

What are three things about you that are worth knowing?

Are you giving people a chance to discover them?

FOLIO 04 · FOUNDER[EXPERIENCE & CURIOSITY]

I’ve always been curious.

About people. About what makes us tick. Why we respond differently to the same situation. Why something brings out the best in us one day — and gets in our way the next.

That curiosity has travelled with me. Through banking, fintech, marketing, education and business. Different roles. Different situations. Lots of different people.

I explored techniques, frameworks and ways of thinking that helped me understand some of those questions better — and gave me different ways to work with others too. I’m still learning. I hope I always will be. Because there’s often more there than we realise. We tend to notice what we’re missing.

Sometimes, someone else even sees something in us before we see it ourselves.

FOUNDER ARTEFACTS[CRAFT & CREDENTIALS]

And then there are the things I try…

Photography took me across genres and, along the way, brought me some international recognition.

A weekend eating street food around New Delhi with three colleagues became a coffee-table book — four copies, one for each of us.

And once, mostly because it was well outside my comfort zone, I tried stand-up comedy. One performance. It went rather well. 😄 Different things. Same curiosity.

A little of the formal stuff

  • Master’s in Management Studies — Goa University
  • Advanced Programme in Digital Marketing Strategy — IIM Calcutta
  • NLP Certification — ABNLP

Look closer. Ask questions. Try something. Learn. And occasionally, surprise yourself. That’s probably the simplest way to explain Alpha Shift.

Ready to explore?

You don’t need to have it figured out. Bring the question. Bring the challenge. Bring the half-formed thought.

We’ll start there.

FOLIO 05 · LET'S EXPLORE[CONVERSATION START]

Something on your mind?

You don’t need to have it all figured out. Maybe it’s something you want to work through. Something you’d like to do differently.

That’s okay. Start with a conversation.

DIRECT ROUTE[TOPMATE BOOKING]

Or, find a time that works.

If you’d rather get straight to a conversation, choose a time and we’ll take it from there.

Prefer to reach out directly?

That’s it.

No elaborate intake form.

No need to choose a programme before we’ve spoken.

We’ll start where you are.
