Amritha Mani - Strategy & Leadership Consulting

I partner with visionary, mission-driven leaders to turn their boldest ideas into transformative, world-shaping impact.

With 10+ years of advising high-stakes organizations—ranging from government bodies to high-growth social enterprises, startups and scaleups - I specialize in driving large-scale change with passion and precision.  

My approach is not just strategic; I design and execute game-changing solutions that deliver ACTUAL, measurable, high-impact results. If you have an impossible vision - call me in. I know how to lead a team to get it done. 

As an Executive Coach, I work with purpose-driven leaders to break through barriers, elevate their influence, and lead with unparalleled conviction and impact.

Everything I do is optimised towards one moment in my life — my deathbed moment.

Kinda heavy for a LinkedIn bio, right?

But that’s the whole point.

When you believe in something deeply, and realise how short your time on this planet really is, you also realise most of the rules — how to behave, what to say, how to "act professional" — don’t actually matter.

They won’t matter in the end.

What will matter is one question:

“Did I live as me? All of me? Did I do what I came here to do?”

And you know deep down - the answer to that NEEDS TO BE YES.

👋🏽 Hey, I’m Amritha Mani — Strategy & Transformation Leader, Executive Coach and Facilitator, and Founder of The DreamBuilders Club.

My mission is to reignite young people, leaders, and impact-driven organisations to unleash their biggest visions — and coach them to change the world with joy, boldness, and purpose.

🧠 What I bring to the table:
I’ve spent 14+ years leading large-scale strategy, leadership, and transformation initiatives across billion-dollar corporations, governments, startups, NGOs, and global institutions like the United Nations and World Bank. I hold an MBA from Columbia Business School (Ivy League) and am a Certified High Performance Coach.

I help you:

Get crystal clear on your boldest mission

Build the mindset, routines, action plan, and support systems to actually execute

Move from confusion → clarity, and from vision → aligned, no-bullshit action

💼 Who I work with:
✨ Young professionals lost in their careers

💛 Executives who lead with heart
🌍 Organisations navigating change and transformation

🚀 How I do it:
