Coach and confidante to founders and senior leaders | Sharing tips and stories on leadership and transforming self | Ex R3, Visa, PayPal, and BCG

I coach founders and senior leaders – but really, I coach and guide the human behind the job title. 

People work with me to: 
- Learn from my experience and accelerate growth
- Simplify how they lead themselves and their teams
- Develop skills and new ways to think or see the world
- Clarify who they want to be and what they really want in life
- Change behaviours that dampen their performance
- Feel lighter instead of constant overwhelm or stress 

Coaching is fulfilling, joyful and energetic. Every client and session teaches me something new – about leadership or myself. 

I spent 20+ years in startup and corporate roles – learning behaviours and mindsets to lead myself and my teams effectively. I discovered leading can be both fun and results-driven.

I experimented with my career and my life: 
- I took many roles - engg. manager, strategist, ops guy, and then partnerships and sales 
- I worked and lived in different parts of the world - Middle East, USA, South East Asia.

I made life pivots. I dealt with the fear of bringing my income down to zero (twice!) before rebuilding it to higher levels.

I started leading in 2004 (at Wipro), and realised that inspiring and motivating others requires self-awareness and continuous personal development.

At BCG, I learned the foundations of business and leadership.

At HP, PayPal and Visa, I managed, influenced, and motivated without reporting line authority. I survived and thrived in matrixed organisations. I learned how to align, inspire, and clarify. 

At R3, I dug deep to explore myself. I discovered how to support leaders who were topic experts and more experienced than me. I learned how to tap into their intrinsic motivation to enable results we cared for.

These experiences led me to be a coach. I decided to spend the second half of my life actively serving others. I am on constantly learning, feeling challenged, and serving. I share my learnings on LinkedIn regularly.

If you want to work with me, here’s how I can support you:

1) 1:1 COACHING: We would work on what matters most to you – your biggest challenges and opportunities, over several months. We will meet at least twice a month.

2) 360 FEEDBACK: Leaders rarely get high quality (or any) feedback. I will speak to your stakeholders to understand how they see you. I will bring that back to you to reflect and take action.

3) GROUP COACHING / LEADERSHIP PROGRAMMES: With trusted partners, I coach leadership teams towards high performance.

CEO and Founder | Talk Show Host | I am here to explore and share what I have learned

From a young boy who lost his father at 14 and whose world seemed to crumble, Rodrigo rebuilt his life from the ground up with relentless curiosity and an unshakable belief in possibilities. With minimal support, he transformed his pain into purpose, travelling to more than 70 countries, constantly seeking new experiences, and daring to live life on his terms.

Rodrigo spent 15 years in senior leadership roles for a Fortune 500 company, leading over 800 people across five countries. 

But two pivotal sabbaticals redefined his journey. One was a 15-month travel adventure around the globe with no fixed plan—just a thirst for adventure and the extraordinary. Another saw him cross Southeast Asia by motorbike, hitchhiking, and bicycle, soaking in the beauty of a raw, unscripted journey.

Two years ago, he launched Something Bigger—a platform born from his passion for empowering change-makers to create something bigger than themselves, one powerful conversation at a time. As the Something Bigger Show host, Rodrigo now travels the world, engaging with the most inspiring and influential minds of our time and sharing their stories and wisdom.

Currently, in India, the show reaches over 6 million people each month on social media, igniting conversations that inspire action and positive change across the globe.

We are a bunch of determined people, who believe we can change the world. We are a media and leadership development company with a huge mission to lead the charge in developing the next generation of inspiring leaders globally.
