Run With the Lions for your next level of Corporate Success and Leadership Development

“I was sitting in my office on a Friday at 4 PM and people had already started to head out for their weekend and wishing byes and nice weekends. While I was about to pack my bags as well, I was thinking if I am utilizing my potential enough while having a cushy job in a top MNC in India. Perhaps, I wanted to do something much more and create a bigger impact outside the boardrooms of my corporate career.

Only a few months later, I put down my papers not because I had another job at a 30% hike but because I was ready to take a plunge into starting my own business. While most people warned and cautioned me on this move, for leaving a career that many wouldn’t have left for reasons more than one. After all, I was also among the first few to jump into entrepreneurship from my family and friends circle.” says Mohit Gauriar, Founder and CEO – Running With Lions™.

Mohit says “At some point, we would open our gates to invite empanelment of professional coaches, as we see a great opportunity to magnify our impact in the corporate sector by providing executive coaching and leadership development services. We have also had some initial discussions and informal interest from investors to participate in funding, but we would like to save that discussion for some more time”
