Building a business is like walking a dragon—spitting fire at every turn. Tame it, and you’re flying. Fail, and you’re extra crispy.
Over the years, I’ve coached high-performance CxOs who now eat mediocrity for breakfast. But my one-on-one coaching days are long done — too many dragons, not enough hours. Instead, I’ll be packing my sharpest insights right here. I intend to run this program for just over three years. Walk the Dragon is tailored for the kind of CxOs who make decisions before their second coffee. If that’s you, welcome to the inner lair.

Setting the Vision
I read somewhere, "If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there." The number one quality that sets great leaders apart from ordinary ones is "vision". By vision, I don't mean that you always set out to change the world (though you can), but that you are clear about what you want to do or accomplish. The "how" of how exactly will you realize your vision often gets clearer over a period of time. It is perfectly fine to not know everything beforehand as long as you are clear about the outcome you seek. In this session, I'll cover the importance and art of setting your vision.

Building an Outcome Driven Organization
Your job is not to make the horse drink the water but to make it thirsty. A novice salesperson spews features and promises like a dragon blows fire. Whereas good salespeople always know that persuading a prospect to buy your product is never done by pushing them or bombarding them with more information. Instead, it is done by helping them visualize how beautiful and easy their life would become once they have your product/service.

Building Organizational Focus
Focus is the art of filtering out the noise and directing your attention to the task at hand. When it comes to personal productivity, focus is usually the prime qualitative factor that separates the good from great. When it comes to running a business though, it’s not just an individual’s focus but the collective focus of the enterprise that plays a huge role in the growth and success of a company. Knowing where to direct your scarce resources is only possible if the whole company is focused on realizing the vision

The added value in every single aspect of the WTD training is stunning! The design, content, clarity, novelty and unique manner to deliver Om Swami's message is beyond imagination. Thank you Om Swami for being such a great leader!
Swamiji's live Zoom webinars are serious and fun boot camps for anyone committed to being an entrepreneur. Each session is dedicated to a necessary step in the process of developing an idea into a business. His insights, explanations, programming and of course, humor are truly invaluable. Don't think twice about signing up for the next WTD.
Walk the Dragon webinars were an amazing summary of how to build & grow your business, from Vision, to Sales, Marketing & Raising Capital. It shared the key principles that help in business and personal growth, and that can be the guiding principles for our journey.
My association with Swamiji and the program has helped me appreciate the cutting edge space of business transformation better than any other courses I have done in my formal business education and training. He exemplifies excellence and effortlessly brings a spiritual dimension to the hardcore and competitive world of business.
The experience of gaining wisdom directly from the master during the live webinars can't be imagined & found in any degree or courses conducted by any university. They are brilliantly insightful and helped us to understand the little nuances of business better.
Walk the Dragon was an amazing program that not only provided guidance on how to build a successful business but was incredibly insightful from the practical and hands-on experience of Swamiji as well as the numerous examples, videos etc. shared during the sessions.
Walk the Dragon leadership notes is Om Swami's mentorship exclusively for CxOs. Subscription will give you access to all existing and new business writings as well as a live 40-min Zoom webinar every month which is based on participants Q&A. Plus, Om Swami also answers relevant questions in the comments.
Generally speaking, Om Swami stopped one-on-one coaching two years ago due to pressing demands on his time. In fact, numerous requests for mentorship is the main reason of starting Walk the Dragon leadership notes. Having said that, you can always mention your specific requirements in the comments of any new article as Om Swami endeavors to read as many comments as possible.
Please note that the subscription is not intended to create a barrier per se. It must be said, however, that the writings, conversations and community of Walk the Dragon exclusively comprises of CxOs. To maintain the quality, the subscription can't be waived. For a senior business leader, the entire annual subscription is no more than a day's salary if not half-day.
Unfortunately, to keep things simple there are only two options: annual and lifetime. Both are reasonably priced. RBI regulations make recurring subscriptions extremely difficult to auto renew, hence monthly plans are simply not viable. In fact, if you are in India, even annual subscriptions don't auto-renew.
Any participant can ask a question of professional nature. Depending on the number of participants and the nature of topic, Om Swami may only take the best 5-6 questions.
Om Swami is much more than a monk. To know more, you must read his books, notably, If Truth be Told and Thirteen Months in the Himalayas where he has made complete disclosure. As a monk, all his spiritual writings are on os.me and they are completely free. All his discourses are on YouTube which are also completely free. Further, all his spiritual courses are also available on os.me at no charge whatsoever. Indeed his spiritual apps, Black Lotus and Sadhana App are also free. This platform is not for your spiritual growth but material. And if you are not at a certain level already in your career, it is not for you. You are welcome to read a wealth of free stuff he has written for spiritual growth. Om Swami pays his bills through his hard work and does not accept donations for his personal needs. The organizations he has founded do not support his staff as every single penny donated anywhere strictly goes for the cause it's donated for.
As we mentioned that this site is exclusively for CxOs. If you have had a stellar career but due to highly unusual personal circumstances, you can't afford to pay at the moment, we will consider giving you the basic membership. Please use the contact form on this website and in the message field, only provide the URL to your LinkedIn profile. If your LinkedIn profile makes you a good candidate, we'll get back to you. Please note: To maintain the quality and to be fair to our participants, we are unable to offer free or discounted platinum membership.
