Testimonial for Coach Shyam Kalle,

I started taking coaching from Shyam when I was not sure if I am taking the right decision of leaving my IT career of 11 years to move into Health and Wellness Industry. I was confused, lost and unsure. He analyzed my personality and told me things which I didn’t even know about myself. The guidance, support and motivation were exceptional. My vision is more clear and I feel more confident now about my decision, my goals and dreams. This coaching was a big game changer for me. Thanks to Shyam and Hemant Deshpande Career Coaching.

Testimonial for Coach Hemant Deshpande:

In summary, I feel now I have a path to my alternate career and a plan to fulfill my dream.

Hi, I’m Nitin Bhagwat, I have got 17 years experience in IT industry. And I have been doing project management for quite a while. And I find that interacting with people, or training the people is something that I’m good at. And I would like to explore my abilities of soft skills training or become a life coach. And that’s where my coaching journey with Hemant began. I met Hemant in the Transformational Leadership Program that he conducted at my company. During this training, I felt I had to connect with Hemant. So I took the coaching from him for about six months as my coach. And during this coaching program what I found was, the USPs that I found in Hemant was: one, he is very knowledgeable and focused individual. Two, I found him a very warm and friendly person who could always connect with me. And third, what I found was, the way of coaching is very personalized and very helpful. And now I have a plan with me, I am working on it, and I’m really happy that I’m going to achieve my goal because I’ve started taking the trainings. I’ve actually done some workshops, and I’m practicing what I’ve learned from Hemant with my colleagues. And I really feel now that I have a purpose in life, and I think it’s like a dream coming true for my alternate career.

Testimonial for Coach Hemant Deshpande:

I had coaching sessions with Hemant. He was my mentor coach. My goal was to prepare and establish myself as a life coach. He asked me powerful questions that redirected my thinking to focus on important goals. He challenged me from time to time which reinforced the importance of going out of my comfort zone. He provided me with a real picture of life coaching and training industry.
I highly recommend working with Hemant if you want to reinvent your career and excel in personal growth.

Testimonial for Coach Hemant Deshpande:

I started coaching with Hemant to be a life coach myself. I always knew that this was my calling in life but wasnt sure how i could fulfill my dream. Hemant was able to help me clear my head and help me chart out an action plan to follow my passion. His clarity of thought and simplicity of handling situations is something anybody facing any challenge in life can get great insights from. I believe we all have all the answers within us but we all need someone like Hemant to draw them out with his patient listening and be able to live the life of our dreams. Thanks to Hemant I have begun my own life coaching practice thereby helping people lead exciting and fulfilling lives. I’m glad Hemant is doing something that’s making the world a better place.

Testimonial for Coach Hemant Deshpande:

I approached Hemant when I was in a career crisis and almost an identity crisis of sorts. I did not know what to expect from Hemant and career coaching in general when I spoke to him in the beginning. After an initial discovery session, we set my questions in context and decided on overall coaching goals. That session itself left me feeling lighter, secure, and excited about the future.

Over the course of the last 6 months, through a very insightful approach, I have received continuous guidance from Hemant. Across all his sessions, he helps walk through your challenges by listening intently. Through his questions, I discovered how I think, what has limited me, and what I can do to practically work towards reducing those apparent limitations. I was nudged in the right direction by Hemant to prepare a plan for myself, but more importantly, make it approachable, flexible, and sustainable.

I really appreciated having Hemant being my accountability partner, reminding me about the power of self-appreciation and always looking at a situation not with the emotion associated with it, but simply as it is. His sessions have helped me reduce the unwarranted worries I’ve had about my capabilities, and made me more balanced and positive. I also received a lot of comfort from the examples and stories he shared, including his own life journey, which reassured me that he fully understood my concerns. I would highly recommend anyone facing career dilemmas or feeling like they are stuck in a rut, to take advantage of the patient, empathetic, and clear persona that Hemant radiates.

Testimonial for Coach Hemant Deshpande:

I was stuck in a job with no work life balance. I wasn’t sure of my future. I was looking for guidance on what my career path should be for the medium and long term goals that I have set for myself. I wanted an expert to advise me and offer ideas on how to work towards my long term ambitions of being an entrepreneur. That is when I contacted Hemant Deshpande.

While going through the coaching journey with Hemant, I found a new job which aligned with my aspirations. Some of the tips shared by Hemant helped in securing this job. I have also been able to increase my self-awareness and confidence through by discussions with Hemant. Another important result I achieved is that I have made steady progress towards my long-term goal of being an entrepreneur.

During my coaching journey, I learned many things. I learned regarding different business models, trending business ideas, smart ways to look for a target job, unique business models, leveraging the right courses among other valuable lessons.

I took a lot of important action steps during coaching journey, I researched extensively on potential business ideas. Took courses related to entrepreneurship. Started on ground actions towards setting up my own business.

My conversations with Hemant were always thought provoking, encouraging and insightful. There was one conversation which made me realize a key flaw in my behaviour and this will go a long way in improving my life. I have developed a more action and target oriented approach towards my long-term goals due to this coaching engagement.

I would highly recommend Hemant as a career coach, advisor and guide. Some of his admirable qualities include: 1) Excellent Listening Skills 2) Insightful Inputs 3) Honest Analysis and Feedback 4) Reinforced Positive Thinking

Testimonial for Coach Hemant Deshpande:

My coaching journey with Hemant started in February’21 when I began to start thinking of ending my long Corporate career and starting something new that I would like to venture into, knowing that the transformation might become challenging on many fronts. Since my daughter had experienced the coaching benefit with Hemant and how immensely valuable and useful the practical guidance received by her was, I knew this was something that I needed to do to make a well thought out decision, and there would have been no one better than Hemant to help me through that.

What I experienced later was in a short sentence, “finding a new me” apart from of course gaining a lot of knowledge of the art and science of Coaching as a profession.  Many new windows of my mind opened new insights, information and knowledge was received. Basically, from the time I started in Feb to now (June 2021), I am far more comfortable and relaxed in knowing that not just do I have a GPS and Google map on my mobile, but I also a sense of where I want to head, which I would say is a conclusion and success of this course.

Testimonial for Coach Sujatha Jain
When I look back on my journey with you, initially, I wanted to discover an alternate career path. That was my aim before the start of our sessions. However, now I know and understand that it is not something that one can discover so easily. It takes time, preparation, lot of trial and error and me having to take conscious steps in that direction.
Your coaching sessions prompted me to think why I was looking for an alternate career path in the first place, and to dig deeper into the reasons. Through your continuous guidance, I understood that certain things about my current job are fundamentally in conflict with my core values (such as autonomy, flexibility and creativity), thus leading to my dissatisfaction at work. With your advice and encouragement, I decided to attempt at correcting some of those issues. I raised my concerns with my reporting manager. He listened to me and acknowledged my concerns. Things are slightly better for me at work now, at least I am no more involved in reporting-related activities and I am getting the work that I want to do. But more importantly, I have the satisfaction of voicing my concerns to my manager.  I didn’t sit back and suffer, instead I decided to take some action to correct the situation and I could do that thanks to your encouragement and guidance.
As the next steps, I am trying to do my best in my current job, and instead of trying to fight the work environment or people, I am keeping an open eye to the new job opportunities. Sometimes acceptance is a wider thing to do than to complain or fight the situation .
Also, I haven’t completely discarded the idea of taking a few months of time off for myself. I will plan and prepare for it. During the time-off, I intend to travel and focus on physical fitness. I want to read a lot and paint a lot. I think a few months of time-off for personal exploration could generate new ideas for my next steps and do good to me.
Another important thing that I would like to highlight is that I really enjoyed interacting with you and could definitely take some inspiration from you on living one’ s life. You are a fantastic human being-a very bold and a positive person. One should not stop living one’s life despite the obstacles or the hardships that may come. I applaud your spirit towards life.
