What Co.labx does

Co.labx is a boutique India-based leadership consultancy founded in 2016 by Arhan Bezbora and Saahil Sood, operating as a remote-first team of five core members plus an extended community of coaches and facilitators. It serves mission-driven organizations — predominantly growth-stage companies, nonprofits, and social enterprises — through three productized offerings: 'Winning Together,' a 3-day in-person bootcamp delivered at the Padukone Dravid Centre for Sports Excellence using sports-based experiential learning; 'The Execution Stack,' a 3-month online sprint for remote teams focused on goal clarity, execution rituals, and culture; and a 1:1 Executive Coaching collective offered in five engagement formats ranging from single on-demand sessions to multi-month sprints.

The company does not operate a proprietary technology platform; its intellectual property resides in codified methodologies (Execution Stack, Winning Together, Energy Check, 10X Conversations) and the sports-psychology-rooted delivery model. Revenue is generated through professional services fees on bespoke engagements, with all sales originating from a free 30-minute Calendly discovery call and pricing held privately on a quote basis. GTM is sales-led with a content marketing layer anchored by the monthly 'Diary of a Coach' newsletter and client referrals; named clients include Reap Benefit, Teach For India, Bhumi, Make A Difference, Indus Action, Vahura, LawNK, GreyB, Quizizz, The Souled Store, TATA Advanced Systems, and SAMA, among others.

Co.labx has bootstrapped growth without disclosed external funding and reports serving 100+ organizations, 500+ leaders through CSE in its first partnership year, an NPS of 80+ across Winning Together cohorts, and outcome metrics such as 90% decision-making improvement in a published case study. The operating model is human-capital-intensive: revenue scales roughly with the founder/coach team and venue capacity rather than with software or automation, making the business high-touch, low-leverage by construction.
