About Aman Motwane

Hailed by Tom Peters for bringing his company out of the doldrums, almost overnight, heralded by the media as the UnGuru because he is such a convention-breaker, Aman Motwane is the man behind the movement to change how the world of business learns business — Skills 2.0


Aman Motwane

Aman Motwane has been dubbed by the media as the UnGuru because he is unlike almost every expert, guru, trainer, coach or consultant today.

Why is he known as the UnGuru?

Unlike most gurus today who teach you their insights, the UnGuru guides you — and your employees — to become insightful yourself.

Instead of training you with the currently-accepted body of rules and laws, the UnGuru shows you and your employees how to transcend them because, as recent events have proven, such “accepted bodies of knowledge” quickly become out-of-date and completely irrelevant.

Can You Afford
to Ignore What He is Saying?

There are even more differences that set the UnGuru apart:

Most training today is very specialized and fragmented — for example, you can read a book or attend a course on leadership or teamwork or innovation or time management or diversity.

Education:

Aman holds degrees from the Indian Institute of Technology and a Master’s from Stanford University, which he received in 9 months. But he’s the first to point out that education and information are useless without clarity and perspective.

The UnGuru, on the other hand, integrates your learning — and, as a result, accelerates it. He helps you see that leadership and teamwork and innovation and time management and diversity are intricately intertwined. That you can't really be great at any one of these competencies if you aren't also great at all the other competencies. And that you are seriously shortchanged when you are taught these competencies separately. And that, when, instead, you learn them simultaneously, your understanding and performance with all of them ramps up exponentially.

In this economy, it's urgent that the training you receive is radically efficient and radically effective. Because both money and time are of the essence.

The UnGuru brings you a new learning platform — Skills 2.0 — that dramatically slashes the time, money and effort to learn what you need to learn.

Aman Motwane quote:

If you come to me with a problem, I will help. But I won't give you the answer. Because my answer would be strictly that — my answer. An answer that works for me may or may not work for you. Also, an answer that worked yesterday may or may not work for you today.

So, I will sit beside you and we will both look at your problem together. Our goal will be that you learn to ask the right questions so that you will not only be able to come up with the answer that's right for you on your own, but more importantly, from then on, you will be able to cut to the chase with most such problems on your own.

Below is a small sampling of the acknowledgements received by the UnGuru:

"Aman Motwane is a keynote speaker bar-none. He truly is the best of the best. As many people as possible need to hear what he has to say, because his message is all about 'what’s next.' I saw the audience resonating with what he was saying, and heard one say she was so inspired she wanted to burst out of the room and go change the world! All afternoon wherever I went people were still talking about his session. There was a line at the customary book signing following his presentation, where every book was sold."
Kay Boles, CMP, CMM, CHE
VP, Education MPISCC
UCLA Conference Services
