Growth, transformation and, more recently, the evolution of human consciousness mark the stages of exploration behind his 30+ years in Human and Organisation Development that Mahesh has committed himself to.

He began his development journey with a decade of learning and practice in process-work in the Indian tradition with the Indian Society for Individual and Social Development (ISISD). He is a Master Trainer in the MBTI®, FIRO®, Strong Interest Inventory®, CPI® and Saville® suite of assessments. He works actively with Robert Kegan’s Immunity to Change and Adult Development frameworks and is trained in Organisation and Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC). While the work of Carl Jung holds an abiding interest for Mahesh, he has in recent years begun an exploration of Psychosynthesis anchored in the works of Robert Assagioli and in the psychology of Sri Aurobindo’s Integral Yoga that he was introduced to by the Indian Institute of Psychology (IPI) in Pondicherry.Read more about Mahesh’s accomplishments here.

Away from work, he loves being on nature trails. An amateur bird-watcher, he is fascinated by owls and collects owl art from all over the world.
