Shobha Tahilramani — Co-Founder
Fractional CHRO | Strategic HR Partner for Growth & Transformation | Leadership Coach & Mentor With nearly three decades of HR leadership experience across multinationals and Indian organizations in electronics, IT, automotive, media, and manufacturing, I bring both strategic vision and execution depth. For over 15 years, I have served in senior roles including VP-HR and CHRO, leading large-scale culture transformations, building HR functions from scratch, and aligning people strategy with business outcomes. Today, I work with organizations on a retainership model as their Virtual/Fractional CHRO. My focus is on business growth through people and processes. I help leadership teams who are: 🔹Expanding into new markets or scaling operations 🔹Navigating mergers and acquisitions 🔹Professionalizing and strengthening organizational culture 🔹Building sustainable structures, systems, and leadership pipelines What I deliver: 🔹 Design and rollout of end-to-end HR processes, systems, and policies 🔹 Development of employee handbooks, HR manuals, KRAs, and review mechanisms 🔹 Creation of competency frameworks and performance appraisal systems 🔹 Leadership assessment and pipeline development (including Assessment & Development Centers) 🔹 Training HR teams to execute strategy with precision 🔹 Employee engagement surveys and culture-building initiatives I also coach and mentor entrepreneurs, business leaders, and mid-career professionals to lead with clarity and confidence. In addition to consulting, I’m co-founder of an electronics manufacturing company, which gives me hands-on understanding of the challenges business owners face when scaling teams, systems, and culture alongside growth. I hold an MBA in HR & Marketing, a Master’s in Psychology, and certifications in Coaching (ICF, ICHARS) and NLP (licensed by Dr. Richard Bandler). This unique mix of business insight, behavioural expertise, and execution experience allows me to create lasting impact. If you’re building a scalable, purpose-driven organization—or navigating your own leadership journey—I’d be glad to connect.
