From Internal Influence to Executive Authority
Who is Kiranbir Sodhia?
Kiranbir Sodhia is a veteran of several FAANG companies, and throughout his tenure has worked with both exceptional and ineffective leaders. His core expertise lies in software development, but he has found that his true passion is in transforming struggling teams into exceptional teams. He addresses issues such as attrition, project setbacks, and low morale with an approach that centers on fixing cultural problems, nurturing talent, developing leaders, and creating strategic plans for self-sufficiency.
Kiranbir has been fixing struggling work teams in top technology enterprises since 2015, when he was asked to lead a team where the former manager had passed away. He has a proven track record of transforming teams into thriving organizations and developing leaders through the challenges. At one of the Tech Titans, he revitalized two organizations and achieved consistently top workgroup health scores from 2017 to 2022. Similarly, at another, he turned around two organizations and successfully mentored leaders for his succession in both roles.
Some industry professionals and consultants believe leaders should focus on their team, while others encourage a focus on the business. Kiran Sodhia looks at the teams, their internal organizations, and the company as a whole—and is convinced that all three need to be prioritized.
He recognizes that in the good times management is one of the easiest jobs, BUT in hard times it can be the most challenging job in the world. So challenging that many managers choose to return to the role of an individual team contributor.
The mark of his success in transforming struggling teams to thriving ones is that many he has left behind are still operating under the same leadership team he built.
His ultimate goal in his work is to empower teams to thrive independently, allowing him to move on and tackle new organizational challenges.

The Challenge
Before launching his strategic Anti-PR® campaign with JOTO PR Disruptors™, Kiranbir Sodhia faced several key challenges:
