About
Rahul Desai designed spacecraft subsystems for eleven years before deciding that the hardest engineering problem in most organisations is the meeting.
He now facilitates innovation sprints, foresight sessions and cross-functional strategy days, importing the constraint-driven method of spacecraft design into corporate innovation work.
Automotive, energy and manufacturing clients book him when previous workshops produced enthusiasm and nothing else.
