Team Tension Detector Mini-Course
Team Tension Detector Mini-Course
Your distributed tech team isn’t ‘just stressed’. Misalignment in global teams usually starts small: a missed comment in Slack, a quiet dev who stops pushing back, a stand-up that feels off. By the time it’s obvious, morale’s already tanking.
If you're leading a tech team, spot team tensions before they become problems with this 3-part email series. You'll learn: how to identify tension points, spot early warning signs, and transform team dynamics.

Hear how Sprintdoctor helped teams shift from misalignment and burnout to clarity and collaboration - fast.
Rakesh has a remarkable talent for holding both the big picture and the fine detail in balance. He weaves together stories, data, and human experience in a way that helped me see patterns I’d missed and recognize opportunities I might have overlooked. He never shies away from the difficult questions—instead, he invites me to lean into the discomfort, knowing that’s where the real breakthroughs happen.
Raymond Miranda
Founder, Myhejo
Working with Rakesh has completely transformed how our team and partners collaborate. He has an uncanny ability to quickly pinpoint the root cause of challenges, cutting through the noise to address issues before they escalate. This speed and clarity have saved us countless hours and headaches. Beyond that, he has helped transform how we work with external partners—fostering trust, alignment, and seamless communication where silos once existed. Even cultural clashes or conflicting work styles, which used to derail progress, now become opportunities for innovation thanks to your thoughtful approach. What truly sets his service apart is how he creates a safe, open virtual space where teams feel heard and respected, free from office politics or finger-pointing. He manages to build a level of trust and transparency that’s rare in remote settings. And every session ends with something invaluable: crystal-clear, actionable next steps. Complex discussions are distilled into precise to-dos, leaving no room for ambiguity—just momentum and meaningful progress.

About Me
I'm Rakesh Kasturi — a people and culture strategist and embodied leadership coach. Over the past 12+ years, I’ve helped leaders and teams across Europe and Asia navigate the human side of growth: alignment, trust, conflict, and resilience.
My work lives at the intersection of strategy and human connection. I combine tools like Google Design Sprints and organizational diagnostics with deep coaching and body-based practices. Whether it's supporting a scaling tech startup in crisis or coaching a founder through a breakdown with their team, I bring grounded presence, clarity, and curiosity.
I’ve worked with global clients like H&M, ING, Siemens Foundation, as well as SME's that are growing in Europe and India.
More than anything, I care about helping people come home to themselves - and bringing that presence into how they lead others.
