Dirish Mohan is a great mentor and personally invests time in each mentee. I was part of his flagship program ‘Own the Stage’ and I really enjoyed and looked forward to every session. The 6-week course really did change the way I looked at the stage. Dirish is authentic and has the patience in guiding you to bring out the best in you. His guidance and support really helped in removing all inhibitions I had in public speaking.

I had a very good experience being mentored by Dirish. He comes across as an honest and a genuine person who makes an earnest attempt to unearth the ‘public speaker’ in each of his mentees and supports them during their journey. The program is well structured and in every session, individuals are given a topic to write and speak about. The program aims to get the content, script, and delivery of the content right.
