gurudev khalsa

Gurudev is driven by his personal purpose: Catalyzing people and organizations to thrive in pursuit of the purpose at their heart. He specializes in helping groups align their strategic direction for impact and leverage the diversity in their teams for greater effectiveness and satisfaction.

Gurudev is a consummate facilitator of strategy and teambuilding initiatives, with a focus on health, education, government and spiritual organizations. He often complements his facilitation work with individualized leadership coaching that is a win-win for personal development and organizational effectiveness. He has a special interest in advancing inclusive leadership skills in all of his work, thereby realizing the value of diversity and equity as assets. He has worked extensively across cultures both overseas and in Colorado and was the lead facilitator in the formation of a global, grassroots interfaith organization for seven years. He’s passionate about positive, whole system approaches to organizational change, and loves to engage groups large and small in learning from each other to create lasting transformation.

Gurudev began his career as a CPA at KPMG, where he helped found the Pacific Northwest Management Consulting Department and innovated a facilitative approach to “Dynamic Strategic Planning” that was his first book and the basis for nationwide training. He did his doctoral studies in Organizational Behavior at Case Western Reserve University, with a focus on collaboration and strength-based development.

Personally, Gurudev enjoys hiking, swimming, meditation, global cuisine and recreational ping pong, and any gathering of people from different parts of the world.
