He has successfully led, coached, mentored and consulted with many management teams from small family owned business to Fortune 100 corporations.
Jatin’s uniqueness as advisor comes from the combination of great sensitivity to the challenges of the leader with first hand experience as a professional in the domain.

In 2001, Jatin and his management team started on a new journey called ‘HeartShip’. This has resulted in a unique company culture which promotes practices of universal human values and spirituality into the every day life between all employees, customers, and suppliers. Jatin and his management team are continuously structuring the business with a strong Human Values-based foundation to help make ‘spiritual decisions’ instead of just ‘bottom-line’ decisions at all levels.
