The organizations that will lead the future are able to
Rise Through It.™
“Why can’t I get my teams to trust one another?”
“How do I overcome the fear people have about the disruption in our industry because of technology?”
“What can I do to empower my executive team to make hard decisions and deal with conflict?”
“Our managers themselves are scared of change, how can I even get them to talk to their people about it?”
Everyday, I meet leaders struggling to engage their people who are stuck and paralyzed with the fear of uncertainty and inevitable change.
Organizations want to empower bold action despite unrelenting challenges and discomfort

Rashmi’s Partners
What are the results when you instill a RISE THROUGH IT™ mentality? These companies know.
Hi. I’m Rashmi.
I am a first generation American with parents of Indian descent. When I was 10, I believed wholeheartedly that if we set goals and work hard, there is a straight line to success.
But, I learned as a teenager, this is NOT ALWAYS TRUE.
As a finance and legal professional, professor and entrepreneur, convicted felon, and mental health advocate – my life has been uprooted, shifted and changed by life experiences that could have broken me.
But, I utilized the RISE™ process over thirty years to catapult me out of the fear that often took hold.
I have made the choice to harness discomfort, be vulnerable, adapt to every moment and the results have been life-changing.
Today, I work with leaders and organizations to instill the same RISE™ process and empower the strength, tenacity, and fortitude that leads to breakthrough results and unheralded growth with distinct competitive advantage.
