By Subash CV, MCC (ICF) At some point in their journey, most senior leaders experience a quiet tension. On the surface, everything seems to be working. The role is familiar, expectations are clear, and results are being delivered. Yet internally - somewhere between meetings, decisions, and competing priorities - many leaders feel stretched. Mentally. Emotionally. Strategically. In ways they didn’t anticipate, and that past experience alone doesn’t quite prepare them for. Lead

As the year settles into motion, this feels like a good moment to pause and notice what actually sustains progress. This time of year shifts our focus to plans. New goals. Some energising, some overwhelming. Often accompanied by pressure for outcomes to follow quickly. But w hat holds firm and lasts long is never built in a moment. It’s shaped through what it endures, long before it’s ready to flourish. Roots matter . In coaching, the work that truly lasts is rarely dramatic.

For Corporate Leaders, Business Owners, Professionals, Internal Coaches & Coachpreneurs - Subash CV, MCC Career  In today’s rapidly changing world of work, careers are no longer defined by titles, designations, or straightforward progression.

Am I making a true impact? What legacy am I leaving b

Beyond Metrics: Understanding the ROI of Enchantment - Subash CV, MCC A senior leader recently asked me, “How do you measure the success of coaching?” It is an important question and one that sits at the very core of leadership development today. For many years, determining the ROI of executive leadership coaching was considered the Holy Grail. Coaching was often labelled as “too intangible,” “too soft,” or “hard to quantify.” But the conversation has matured. Today, organiza

Recent events have shown us how interconnected and vulnerable our world has become. A major travel crisis, triggered by India’s largest airline, left thousands stranded. AQI levels have hit their worst as winter set in across urban India. Even as we mark days meant to protect those without a voice ( December 10th being the International Animal Rights Day), our strays are more “homeless” than ever. A part of APAC is recovering from a devastating cyclone, another reminder of th

Leadership today is evolving. Once defined by speed, authority, and execution, it is now being reshaped by empathy, awareness, and clarity. In a world that constantly demands more, more results, more innovation, more resilience, the true differentiator is no longer how fast you move, but how deeply you connect. My own journey into coaching, and now into ICF Coaching , began after experiencing it first-hand. It was not just a conversation. It felt like a mirror, one that refle

Subash CV, MCC (ICF), CXO Coach, ICF Mentor Coach Introduction In a world of constant disruption and complexity, leadership is no longer solely about authority and direction; it is also about fostering a culture of innovation and collaboration. Today’s leaders are being called to serve, elevate, and transform. In this context, the journey of becoming a coach-leader through a certification, such as the International Coaching Federation (ICF) credential, is more relevant than e

Conflict and change – they are not occasional disruptions – they are constant companions of leadership. Conflict shows up in team disagreements, clashing priorities, or even quiet tensions, no one voices. Change arrives through reorganizations, market shifts, or the sudden need to adapt to new technologies. Leaders are expected to navigate all this smoothly. Yet many discover that the biggest challenge is not what is happening around them, but how they respond. Coaching doe
