In a time when people feel increasingly isolated and burnt out, Rajiv Mehta brings a refreshing approach to strengthening human bonds. This session inspires leaders to use their existing skills to create spaces where people feel seen, valued, and part of something bigger—no quick fixes, just real, lasting impact. Using his Mapping Ourselves approach (practices of personal science, experiences of collective self-reflection, and tactile, analog methods), Rajiv empowers leaders to cultivate camaraderie—teams working with a common purpose, dedicated to group success and each other’s wellbeing—that is required for sustained, joyful, high-performance. Attendees will walk away with a transformational new perspective on, and actionable strategies for, building a thriving culture that supports long-term success.
Please note access to the live webinar is open to everyone. Access to the on-demand recording is member-only.
Speaker, consultant, and personal science pioneer, Rajiv Mehta’s early career was in technology and business. He studied aerospace engineering at Princeton and Stanford, was a NASA scientist, got an MBA at Columbia, and then led innovation at Apple and other Silicon Valley companies.
Over the past two decades, Rajiv has focused on teaching leaders, teams, and communities how to transform culture and boost performance by exploring their daily lives using analog, observational tools (Mapping Ourselves), in an experience of collective self-reflection.
He is the author of Camaraderie: Rethinking the Foundations of Joyful, High-Performing Teams and Cultures (July 2026).
In addition, Rajiv has served on the boards and advisory panels of numerous family caregiving and health nonprofits, community and government organizations, academic research programs, and tech startups.
When not exploring care in human affairs, Rajiv reads widely (though perhaps too many mysteries), practices photography, and maintains a minimal daily requirement of TV viewing.
