Note: As of now, Captivatour's tours and website are not functional. We are trying to get them up on an online platform sometime in the near future.CaptivaTour is a mobile app offering captivating audio-visual tours of historical monuments and sites. I'm a co-founder and have researched and written the stories for the tours. Next time you visit a site covered by CaptivaTour, forget boring signboards, pushy guides and heavy books. Instead, get treated to an immersive and memorable audio-visual experience.Instead of dull facts and dates, we narrate the fascinating stories underlying sites, in a highly engaging manner. Apart from text and audio, our tours make liberal use of visuals to bring the monument alive. Additionally, the tours are customisable, both in terms of content and duration.Take a CaptivaTour and rediscover history in a manner you have never done before!For more details visit our website: www.captivatour.com or download the Android or iOS app.Currently, we are not adding any more tours to the app - we are just maintaining the existing tours.

I started my training journey with Mind Matters (www.mindmatters.co.in) as a part-time Faculty. Sriram, who founded Mind Matters was extremely kind, generous and non-interfering in supporting me and helping me find my voice as a trainer and coach. Most importantly, he introduced me to the foundational Pyramid Principle, which I embraced like a long-lost friend.

I worked with TEDxPune 2019 as a Speaker Coach for four high achievers: - Saleha Khan, Young Social sector leader- Swami Subramanian, a neuroscientist who specialises in the study of sleep- Anoop Mahajan, a climate scientist with the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology- Rishabh Gupta, a co-founder at a pioneering drone-delivery startup.I helped them rewrite their speeches, supported in the deck creation and coached them through the delivery process.Here's what Ashwin Naik (who Heads TEDxPune) had to say about my work: "Ravi is a master of storytelling. We had the ringside view of his craft when he volunteered his time as Speaker Coach at TEDxPune 2019. Lots of people have the ability to take your idea and create a great story. Very few people can take an already great story and make it 'wow'. Ravi did that magic for our speakers. Highly recommended if you want to make your Story Rule!"
