Hi, I’m Karan Dhir and like most people who end up in consulting, my journey wasn’t exactly linear.

I started off in the structured, complex world of core industry at Indian Oil Corporation Limited, where decisions moved slowly but carried massive real-world impact. That’s where I first learned how businesses actually work beyond textbooks.

From there, curiosity pulled me into faster, more ambiguous environments - stints in edtech and startups like Unacademy, and eventually into consulting with firms like Accenture and Bain & Company. Different industries, different problems but one common thread: solving messy, real-world business challenges.

Somewhere along the way, I realized something important.

Most people aren’t stuck because they lack capability - they’re stuck because no one has shown them how to think. How to structure ambiguity. How to break down a problem. How to connect dots when there’s no clear answer.

That’s why I started mentoring.

Over the past few years, I’ve worked with candidates across consulting, BizOps, growth, and strategy roles - helping them not just crack interviews, but build a way of thinking that stays with them long after.

If you work with me, expect less “framework dumping” and more real conversations:

Why your approach works (or doesn’t)

How to think under pressure

What actually matters in interviews vs what people think matters

I also build tools, casebooks, and practical resources because I believe learning should feel like solving real problems and not memorizing slides.

If you’re someone who’s trying to figure out your next step, pivot into strategy roles, or simply get better at structured thinking - happy to help.

No fluff. Just honest conversations and practical clarity.
