The Path to Leadership Excellence

A career dedicated to developing leaders and unlocking human potential

DTM Kanchan Sonik
18+Years Experience

With over 18 years of corporate experience and a passion for developing leaders, I've dedicated my career to helping individuals and organizations unlock their full potential.

As a Program Manager at Tech Mahindra, I lead initiatives that transform leadership capabilities across the organization. My approach combines deep corporate experience with academic expertise in human resources, psychology, and communication.

My journey as a Toastmaster spans more than 8 years, during which I've won over 100 speech contests and served in various leadership roles, including as a Division Director. This experience has honed my ability to communicate effectively and inspire others to find their voice.

I believe that true leadership development happens at the intersection of self-awareness, practical skills, and continuous growth. My programs are designed to create transformative experiences that lead to lasting change.

My Leadership Philosophy

The guiding principles that shape my approach to leadership and development

I believe that every individual has untapped potential waiting to be discovered. My approach to leadership development is rooted in creating personalized pathways that help individuals identify their strengths, overcome limitations, and achieve sustainable growth.

True leadership is not about position or authority—it's about influence, inspiration, and the ability to create positive change. Through my programs and coaching, I strive to cultivate leaders who lead with authenticity, empathy, and a clear vision.

"Empowerment is not just about knowledge; it's about the application of that knowledge to create meaningful change."
— Kanchan Sonik

This philosophy guides my work with organizations, teams, and individuals, creating transformative experiences that lead to lasting growth and development.
