Testimonials

We selected Saloni from hundreds of potential international collaborators

Amazon hired Saloni to deliver the first-of-its-kind global coaching programme for leaders of leaders in World Wide Operations. We selected Saloni from hundreds of potential international collaborators, because of her competence, authenticity, and a highly ethical mindset. One of Saloni’s super-powers is making wise decisions in extremely ambiguous contexts. She launched the program after only 1 week on the team, building leadership development content on the go and designing semi-structured sessions, seamlessly blending coaching with facilitation. Saloni enabled the programme team to deliver results well above expectations – an increase in leader and team effectiveness, a marked improvement in decision-making and delegation. Participating leaders rated the program at 98.25% for overall experience favorability, 96% favourability for increased peer connectivity and 94% favorability for real-life applicability.

I came out of the engagement with courage, confidence, and joyful anticipation for the future

Saloni helped me realize that everything I needed to be successful in my next role already existed inside of me.  It didn’t need to be developed.  It just needed to be discovered and harnessed differently.  Saloni opened my eyes to that capability which in turn increased my confidence and effectiveness in my leadership role.  She amplified my strengths, unveiled new insights, helped me address negative experiences and thought patterns that were holding me back, and equipped me with helpful tools and strategies to effectively navigate new situations. Saloni skillfully guided me to identify and resolve the root of the problem.  She used a diverse set of techniques, including personal reflection, guided meditation, visualization, frameworks, and best practices to guide me to the answers, never telling me what to do but rather facilitating a process where I could discover the answers myself.  I came into the engagement with doubts and reservations, and I came out of the engagement with courage, confidence, and joyful anticipation for the future. Thank you, Saloni

Saloni is a game changer

Coaching is a powerful tool, but in the hands of someone that is not only experienced, but is truly meant to coach, it can be game changing. Saloni is a game changer; helping me to identify the path I was on and where I wanted to go. Her use of mindfulness and breath work helped me focus and find my inner voice. Saloni brings with her a unique ability to listen intently, and guided me through targeted language to help push through the wall I was facing. Saloni’s coaching was instrumental in leading me to do what I was meant to do. I got promoted following my time with Saloni.

Keeps her composure during high stakes and high stress situations

Saloni is one of the most talented people I have worked with. We partnered on several projects, where she provided technical expertise and managed stakeholders (both challenging and easy to work with). Saloni has a way of keeping her composure during high stakes and high stress situations. Her work is always up to the highest standards, and she makes everyone around her better by providing the right feedback and coaching to upskill the team. She is a consummate professional, acts with high ethics and considers multiple perspectives to ensure the best possible solution. Saloni is adaptable, as evidenced by her successfully working across multiple functions, management levels, and has done so with excellence. I highly recommend Saloni for any project you want to succeed.

With patience and empathy, she was by my side, as I discovered my authentic leadership style and the best way to move forward towards success. I have become more aware of my strengths.

Has opened my eyes to different and richer ways of coaching

I am struck by Saloni’s passion for her craft, and her wisdom. She has the ability to weave the spirit of coaching into every interaction, turning challenging situations into coaching conversations. We worked together on a coaching program for senior leaders at Amazon. She quickly understood Amazon’s culture, and used her skills to the benefit of the group. She took concepts like mindfulness and the self-worth philosophy of “Ikigai”, and made them real and relevant. Working with Saloni has opened my eyes to different and richer ways of coaching. To anyone considering hiring her as a coach, I would say be prepared to open yourself up to concepts that might seem alien at first, but will get you to explore possibilities that you never would have thought of before you met her!

Saloni is truly an advanced coach

I was most impressed with how Saloni led my Hogan leadership assessment debrief sessions. She was able to expertly guide the discussion, identify trends and patterns, and inspire me to look at the data and the themes with fresh and curious eyes, without any pre-judgment or bias. Saloni is truly an advanced coach, and I would recommend her to any organization or leader looking to advance their professional and personal development.

Positive and optimistic, excellent in motivating groups

I have been collaborating with Saloni since 2011, as she was available to volunteer and provide pro-bono consultancy for our organization in the not-for-profit sector. Since then, she has been really valuable to our organization, in different capacities. Her approach has always been positive and optimistic. She’s excellent in motivating groups and bringing diverse points of view to overcome difficulties. She is a great listener, is open minded, and, of course, very organized, and is able to deliver results under strict deadlines.
