Akash was rated 9.2 on a scale of 10 by 100 of our senior team mates who attended his session in Malaysia. Perhaps- one of the best motivational speakers that Hewlett Packard ever engaged with. He has unbelievable amount of energy and humor through which he drives his points. Through extremely simple activities he makes a huge impact on people and their way of thinking, Akash Gautam was simply awesome.
Akash is not just an exceptional Motivational speaker but a magician too. He took us (Senior Mgmt of CIPLA) into an almost hypnotic state where we shed all our general notions of life & could feel & think like him. We came out, full of fresh energy, confidence & new perspective. I have hardly experienced such a real step-back moment before. Outstanding!!

“Goose-bumps! Nerve-wrecking intensity! We invited Akash to address our Sales & Service teams in Goa. Frankly, I was quite worried with his request for a long 120-minute Motivational Talk. But he spoke for more than 180 minutes and not for a single moment anyone of us wanted him to stop. When it comes to inspirational speakers, I have never seen one like him. What a guy! What an experience to hear him!. Escorts wants more & more of you Akash.”

Akash says – ‘The best way to succeed is to follow the advice which we give to others. It’s not about what you know. It is about what you do with what you know. It’s not about your talent.

This philosophy forms the foundation of his keynotes — turning potential into performance. Akash says- ‘I do not bore my audience by using quotes from famous personalities. Neither do i use cliched poetry. I put in massive efforts to ensure that my content is original, experiential, researched & laser sharp. The kind that goes straight to the heart.
My favorite audience is the mid-senior managements of the corporate organizations. I also deep enjoy talking to Channel Partners (Distributors), as these guys are fun, #dhandekibaat people who are doing real time business (so they require that premium care)”.
I strongly believe that it is impossible to get better at anything without confronting it. But people don’t want the truth. People want the romance. They want the fantasy. The fantasy that they are “special”. So, I decided to make my events a bit destructive. I carefully annihilate the existing erroneous work believes of audiences and then re-construct them as per the organization’s needs (the expected learning outcomes of my event)’.
