Leadership Coach | Author of “Corporate Chanakya”

Hey, I’m Dr. Radhakrishnan Pillai.

I bring ancient Indian wisdom into modern corporate boardrooms. The timeless strategies of Chanakya (Kautilya) form the core of my coaching philosophy. I focus on strategic thinking, governance, and ethical leadership, helping leaders build organizations that are both successful and sustainable.
