Who We Are

Sattaris Advisory Consulting is a cross-border strategy and operations firm built to bridge intent and execution. Founded by Rajiv Rajagopalan, former senior leader at PwC Strategy& with over 15 years of global consulting and operations experience, we help organizations translate clarity into momentum; we connect strategic vision with operational discipline.

Our mission is simple: turn strategy into outcomes and impact that endure. We are guided by values that shape how we work: integrity over optics, clarity first, bias to outcomes, elevating others, cultural fluency, and stewardship.

We operate across the U.S., India and other global markets, combining consulting precision with the operational depth of an execution partner; we help clients build systems that scale, adapt, and sustain.
