Our Certified Life Design Facilitators
Navyug Mohnot
Stanford-trained Life Design Educator
Certified “Designing Your Life” Coach and Facilitator
Navyug Mohnot is the CEO of QAI, a transnational process improvement consulting organisation, and the Founder & CEO of QGLUE, a design consulting, coaching, and training firm. An IIT Delhi alumnus, he went on to complete his MS in the USA. Pursuing a PhD in the US, he decided to return to India in the early stages of the IT revolution, driven by a deep commitment to contributing to the nation’s growth.
30+ years of experience have led him to a deep immersion into Stanford University’s Designing Your Life (DYL) framework. As the only Stanford- trained Designing Your Life educator and a certified DYL coach and facilitator in the world, he is on a mission to bring this impactful framework to those of all ages.
For Navyug, long before he was introduced to DYL, he was already living with a designer’s mindset, which continues to serve him today. The first to bring Designing Your Life to Indian universities, Navyug landed DYL at Ashoka University, and has gone on to and continues to teach it at other prestigious institutions like IIT and ISB. The growing movement of DYL has led him to impact individuals from India’s leading corporate organisations to empower them to design lives of intention, purpose, and possibility.
A Harvard Certified Leadership Coach, Navyug is on the board of several companies, has played leadership roles in TiE and NASSCOM. He has even done a TEDx talk on “Manifesting Desires and Embracing Contradictions”.
He runs a film club and aspires to direct a feature film, while maintaining a dedicated meditation practice and a deep appreciation for artistic expression across media.
