Our methodology

The Heartful Coaching Approach

Heartful Coaching is a unique integration of ICF-credentialed professional coaching and the timeless wisdom of Heartfulness practice, working on both who you are and what you do and developing Heartful Intelligence.

Daaji on bringing material and spiritual life together

“Can we think that a bird can fly with only one wing? No, it needs both the wings. We need to progress materially and also spiritually. The material and spiritual life must go together. The two wings of a bird represent the material and spiritual wings of life. Just as the tail of the bird gives direction to fly on two wings, so the heart provides direction to life.”

What Leaders Say

  • From the HIL community

    Anand Pavaskar
  • From the HIL community

    “These core Adizes concepts & tools will affect Implementation, a major bugbear for CEOs. Now we have practical tools for creating and maintaining a culture of “Mutual Trust & Respect”. Very operational, translating philosophy into reality.”

    Chaitanya ShroffCEO, Excel Crop Care
  • From the HIL community

    “For the senior leadership at GIPCL, the program was more than just a management workshop. It was a perfect blend of inner self-management and practical organisational tools. The experiential nature of the program - set in a serene meditation campus - allowed our team to work with more clarity, resulting in increased cohesiveness and measurable impact on both professional output and personal wellbeing.”

    Mr. K K BhattCFO, Gujarat Industrial Power Corporation
  • From the HIL community

    “Deep’s facilitation and coaching during our Leader as Coach Program at DRIV (Tenneco) was very well appreciated by all the HODs who participated. I fully recommend this programme for organisations where leaders want to start creating more leaders under them.”

    Gyan PandeyPresident & Chief Marketing Officer
  • From the HIL community

    “The methodology engages the entire organisation hierarchically and functionally. It helped to bring out various perspectives from the organisation as a whole and to harness that information constructively. It also helps decisions and opinions to percolate in the entire organisation subsequently.”

    Sunder RajanEx-CEO, Sono Koyo Steering Pvt. Ltd.
  • From the HIL community
