Sanjiv Speaks

Strategic and
confidential advisory

For leaders, founders and families navigating moments where the stakes
are real.

There are moments in a leader’s life – in a founder’s, in a family’s, occasionally in a public one – when the right response is not a programme, a framework or a keynote. It is presence, judgement, and the willingness to sit alongside someone while they work out what to do next.

I work in this capacity selectively, on engagements that require discretion above all else. The work spans executive transitions, founder pressure, sensitive stakeholder matters, board-level reputational issues, and – occasionally – advising individuals or families navigating events of genuine public consequence.

Since 2025 I have served, with the family’s authority, as personal representative and advisor to Viswashkumar Ramesh, the sole survivor of Air India flight 171. My involvement in that capacity has been reported by ITV News, Sky News, PA Media and The National. Out of respect for the family and the wider community of those affected, I do not discuss the substance of that engagement publicly beyond what the family chooses to share.

If you are navigating a moment where what you need is judgement, discretion and presence rather than a programme – get in touch.
