About VIKRITI

VIKRITI brings experienced executives from Fortune 500 companies, leaders of corporate initiatives, and advisors from major consulting firms together to support clients in the healthcare, financial, manufacturing, and retail industries.

VIKRITI develops and implements strategic plans, establishes operational rigor, and drives enterprise change by aligning stakeholders with their corporate mission.

Today, we like to believe our employees, team members, and associates are aligned to the corporate strategy. Unfortunately, alignment between an organization and its employees doesn’t come naturally. It takes planning, hard work, and most importantly, communication with people.

Just as a coach pulls everyone together to sketch the big play on his clipboard, businesses also need to shift the momentum of the game.

VIKRITI assesses and documents the dynamics of your business, pulls all the stakeholders together in a series of huddles, and aligns your workforce to shift the momentum.

Change is a constant in every field. VIKRITI harnesses the dynamics of change by aligning your teams to succeed in a competitive, evolving marketplace.

Using the VIKRITI Approach, we facilitate conversations, perform strategic analyses, develop strategic and operational playbooks, streamline your business structures, and implement the game-changing play.

Through ongoing communication, benchmarking, and business support, we harness the forces of change to drive your organization toward optimum performance.

The VIKRITI Approach has delivered proven results for start-up organizations and $80 billion industry leaders alike.

VIKRITI helps organizations apply the most challenging project management concepts.

They are committed to customer service and to delivering high quality work. I turn to Jolly for best practices, for her deep knowledge, and for real-world solutions.
