Special 45-min session (ask before scheduling) with Ritendra

Ritendra is awesome—he gets me. He spots where I struggle, and he’s always ready with a story from his own life that somehow perfectly fits the situation. Super knowledgeable but down-to-earth, he's been my go-to for real talk and smart advice. I’m glad I chose him as my mentor.

Genuinely concerned about growth and impact. Very experienced and a great human being.

I received invaluable career guidance from Ritendra, offering unique insights and advice not found elsewhere. These insights continuously sparked my reflection. I'm truly grateful for meeting Ritendra early on my professional journey, and look forward to more of these enriching sessions.

I sought mentorship to figure out how to improve my effectiveness. Ritendra's understanding and supportive approach clicked with me instantly.He got what I was saying right away. He gave me good ideas to improve what I'm doing now and plan for the future. Thanks to his holistic mentoring style, I identified areas to develop both my technical expertise and interpersonal skills. Our discussions leave me feeling hopeful and motivated to explore new strategies, whether in human interactions or technology.

Ritendra can do both. 1) diving deep to the granular level, the specifics when we discuss something technical or 2) bubble things up to a coarser level when we discuss my motivation and goals in life. I was not very articulate about my goals. He reframed what I wanted to achieve in an abstract form. I got a clarification of my motivations and reasons. He gave real-world examples from his experience, grounding his points of view and recommendations with evidence. Toward the end, I summarized the takeaways and he validated my understanding of his advice. Overall, a. a very productive session, resulting in actionable next steps tactically and strategically.
