My Story

Dr. Chetan Walia is an internationally recognised leadership advisor and CEO coaching expert with over 25 years of experience guiding top executives, PE-backed businesses, and Fortune 500 companies through transformation, decision-making, and organisational change.

 

What sets Chetan apart is a rare blend:

a practitioner’s track record of business execution combined with the academic rigour of a PhD in Business Strategy and Innovation.

This positions him uniquely at the intersection of strategic thinking, leadership psychology, and decision science.

 

As a trusted advisor to private equity firms and their portfolio leadership teams, he has played a pivotal role in:

 

  • Shaping high-growth strategies

  • Leading cultural integrations post-M&A

  • Facilitating leadership transformations that directly impact EBITDA

 

His experience spans boardrooms, C-suite teams, and investor conversations — always centred around one principle:

 

Better decisions build better businesses.

 

An entrepreneurial leader at heart, Chetan has founded and scaled advisory firms, helped grow consulting businesses from the inside, and developed transformational leadership programs for global organisations such as McKinsey, EY, Siemens, Sanofi, and the World Bank.

Our Mission

To elevate the quality of decision-making across leaders, teams, and organisations —

so every move is grounded in clarity, powered by insight, and built for competitive advantage.

 

We operate at the intersection of science and experience —

curating validated research and real-world insight to develop

an intuitive intelligence inside organisations.

 

Why?

Because when decisions improve,

everything improves — including EBITDA.

Our Method

From Clarity to Capability.

From Insight to Advantage.

 

We don’t start with frameworks.

We start with questions.

 

At SCIXTH, we believe the most valuable problems are the ones most leaders overlook — not because they’re hard to solve, but because they’re hard to see.

 

That’s why our method begins by identifying the exact questions your business must answer to move forward.

 

From there, we apply a three-part model:

1. Precision Framing

 

We diagnose the real issue behind the surface-level symptom.

Not what’s being talked about — but what truly drives underperformance or stuck growth.

 

2. Science Meets Experience

 

We bring together peer-reviewed insight and strategic pattern recognition to inform decisions that are faster, bolder, and more intuitive.

 

 

3. Decision Activation

 

Whether through 1:1 Exactitude Coaching, a team COLAB, or the Exact Problems to Solve™ process —

we create a structured pathway to act on clarity, not just reflect on it.
