Arjun Shekhar | Partner

Arjun graduated from XLRI Jamshedpur in 1990, and began his journey in Organizational Development at SRF. This was followed by a fulfilling stint with the Instructional Design group of NIIT, where he was awarded the Excellence Award for Creative Instructional Design of computer-based soft skills training. After two jobs, it became apparent to Arjun that to perform at his peak potential, he needed a free hand to set his own path, and he founded his calling – the Performance Support practice of Vyaktitva. As Director he brings to the Vyaktitva team a highly creative conceptualization ability, and facilitates various internal and external interventions.

Arjun’s passion is to work in the area of enhancing performance through cultural, structural, developmental and systemic interventions with people. He is equally passionate about mainstreaming social action by building social responsibility into every citizen and he pursues this vision with other founder members of a non-profit organization called Pravah, which sensitizes young people to social issues.

Gagan Adlakha | Partner

A 1990 alumni of XLRI, Gagan joined NIIT and worked with the organization for 14 years. His first 10 years were spent in learning the nuances of HR and delivering across various roles, businesses and functions. After a decade in HR he opted for a business role and the next 4 years were spent as an internal business consultant at NIIT and a regional head. These experiences deepened his understanding of the various aspects of business.
His next curve was to move into consulting at Vyaktitva as a partner; in his quest to help improve the performance of people in organizations. He has extensive experience in various aspects of Organizational Development – Analysis and Diagnostics, Solutioning and Designing Learning Interventions, Facilitating, Evaluation and Assessment, and Executive Coaching. Gagan has helped organizations across various sectors – multinationals, Indian business houses, SMEs, social sector and entrepreneurial ventures.
Gagan believes that learning cannot be impactful if it is a one-time intervention; to make a difference, it needs to be deeply enshrined within an organization’s journey. For him, this philosophy guides every client relationship that Vyaktitva gets into.
