What is a Human Behavior Advisor?

An Advisor is someone who helps you move towards your vision. Yours not ours. We function as a mentor for you. If what you need is clarity for that vision we can help you with that. Sometimes, what you need is clarity on exactly what the problem is that you are facing – we help with that too. What a waste to design a solution for the problem that isn’t the real one.

Why do I need a Human Behavior Consultant or Advisor?

The only people who need a Human Behavior Advisor are those who think that factors internal or external to them are affecting their impact and results. Internal factors might be how they think, approach problems, or whether they take or sustain action. While external factors might be how they relate to others like their partners, team, or even customers. If either of those types of issues is troubling your business, you can use help from a Human Behavior specialist.

What industries or businesses do you specialize in?

We have described our work as solving the soft problems in hard industries. Soft problems are the ‘people problems’ – how we humans tick and how we relate. A hard industry is one where you have tried the easy fixes, the internal fixes and still find yourself stuck.

The end result is that we have experience in multiple industries – because what we do focuses on the people part and, shockingly, we, the people, work in every industry sector there is!

What kind of background and experience do you have as a Human Behavior Advisor?

Amit had Autism Spectrum Disorder and to help himself get well, he studied over 14,000 books from the greatest minds who have ever lived. He is a polymath and he and Kumar have trained with the likes of Dr. John Demartini who was awarded the top Human Behavior specialist of the year. We are just as comfortable leveraging what is known from the laws of physics, behavioral finance, or political rhetoric to help you. This allows us to help you get new glasses, borrowed from other areas, to solve your problems. Einstein was correct – you can’t solve a problem at the same level at which it was created.

In helping our clients, turn their baggage into fuel, challenge into opportunity, Amit is second to none. We know how and can teach you how to make hay while it’s raining.

More importantly we have the accumulated wisdom of our prior clients and students who have had challenges in every area of life.

What results can I expect from working with a Human Behavior Advisor?

Clarity on what exactly is your challenge, what unique resources you can bring to bear, and the steps towards a plan that you are inspired to work on. What use is another plan that sits on your shelf?

If you got fired from your company and they hired a new CEO. What would that CEO do immediately to start fixing whatever is your problem? Why aren’t you doing that now?

How you think, your perceptions and the stories you tell yourself and tell your teams, make a great impact on the decisions and actions you take. Most people lie to themselves – that’s how we humans survive sometimes, but it can get in the way. We help you see what is, as it is, and help you think straight!

I have tried other coaches and self-development programs. What makes what you do as a Human Behavior Advisor different?

Have you ever created a plan then done nothing with it? Sometimes, it’s because you didn’t know how. But most times it’s because it wasn’t aligned with what you think is important enough. We know you are unique. And that your challenges and opportunities are unique. You see even the same external problems are viewed differently depending on the set of glasses you wear.

We use proprietary tools to leverage what it is that you value most to help you get what your heart desires for your life and business. We don’t tell you what you want – we ask questions to help you discover that for yourself. As we say, smart people have great answers. Geniuses have greater questions.

Many have had the exhilarating response of attending a pumped-up, rah-rah seminar, only to leave and crash with nothing having changed about their actual world.

I have consulted with psychologists and therapists – and I am no closer to a solution. How are you different?

We are experts in human thinking, relationships, and achievement - and we avoid a major trap of traditional Psychologists and Therapists. They have commonly bought into a popular but mistaken paradigm of positive thinking, of happy without sad. That is not actuality. Not one person can stay one sided any more than you can have a one pole magnet. It is just as important to see the negatives in the apparent positives, as it is to see the positives in the apparent negatives.

We are the ones who label things good or bad, right or wrong. And the labels can be limiting. We help you own your hero and villain equally so that you can handle support and challenge. Every leader of consequence throughout history has had to master this skill.

How are you different from other Business Consultants?

Business consultants come in all flavors and do many different things. They may have speciality focus or be specialists in one industry perhaps.

Our specialty is in Human Behavior, and we know that we humans follow some of the same laws, same patterns as exist elsewhere in nature – that sets us apart. We get to leverage the nuggets from multiple arenas so we can put them to work in your particular situation.

We’re different in another way: Frequently people hire a consultant when they think they need “wisdom from the oracle.” But our experience has been that it is through facilitation with our clients, often with questions and holding them accountable for the answers, that the greatest breakthroughs are had. That is, the wisdom and solutions arose from within.. We don’t want to rob our clients of their autonomy, and definitely don’t wish to substitute our autonomy for theirs.

What type of clients do you work with?

Most of our clients are owners or have a controlling interest in their businesses. It is their perceptions, decisions, and actions that have the greatest impact on their organizations. And they have the responsibility and ability to pull the levers to effect change. And those changes have a wide ranging and typically long-lasting ripple effect.

What is the cost of your service?

Depending on most budgets, we can accommodate professional service level investments. That means that for some, it will be a group service offering, or for others who wish to invest more we have private customized offerings.

Can I test out your services?

Chintan Project offers entry level group programs where you can see us at work in a group setting. For more customized work, we offer consultation services. Our services use proven, time-tested, and stress-tested techniques – so we don’t offer ‘samples’.

Do you offer a guarantee?

We and our clients know that our systems work. We offer something better than a money back guarantee. If you don’t feel that you received 10x the value of your investment with us, we will work with you until you do.

How do I get references for your work?

Our clients receive our discretion, and their success remains theirs. We facilitate and let them take the credit with their shareholders, boards, bankers, etc. We do have some case studies on our website.

What is the best outcome you have achieved and why do you believe it's significant?

One client, Dr. William Padula, was so inspired after a consultation with us that he reconnected with his vision. Rather than just focusing on his invention, he decided to scale his operation to offer care to millions around the developing world who are facing blindness.

We had a vision ourselves - that when we help inspired and purposed leaders around the world, we help miracles manifest. By helping one leader, we helped the vision, literally the vision, of millions. It is humbling and gratifying to get the privilege to do what we do!

What are the limitations of your services?

While we have wide ranging polymathic expertise, we stick to our knitting in our advisory work. We do not offer medical, legal, financial or tax advice. The results you get would be commensurate with what resources you bring to bear to take the plan you have and put rubber to the road – to execute.

What we do with you is intended to move the needle in your life and business. You are not permitted to teach or sell the materials you receive from us.

Who is your ideal client?

Most of our clients are owners or have a controlling interest in their businesses. It is their perceptions, decisions, and actions that have the greatest impact on their organizations. And they have the responsibility and ability to pull the levers to effect change. And those changes have a wide ranging and typically long-lasting ripple effect.

Our clients typically know that they as the leader are both the head but also a bottleneck in their business.

What is an offering you don't serve/outside your scope?

We do not do financial audits and we do not offer litigation support in court. We will work with our clients to avoid or prepare for litigation. If you have questions about a particular situation, just contact our team.

How long does it take?

There are only a few reasons to hire a consultant – to get you more of what you want and less of what you don’t. So, we will save you resources including time, money, energy, etc. and we will help you achieve more results including money if that is what you want. And to do so faster.

What services do you offer?

Private consultation and advisory services – we sometimes refer to these as Seal Team 6 type operations. You have a problem, and you bring in the best to help you solve it.

We also have group membership programs and courses.

There are a select group of companies where we invest in them and grow together with them. These are companies aligned with our mission and where there is clear mutual advantage to us working intimately together.
