RISE

As CEO of RISE Suneel’s goal was to help people reset, reignite, and find meaning in their work by bolstering emotional resilience and engagement. He helped thousands of people establish a way to personalize their physical and mental health journey while connecting with certified nutritionists and trainers at an affordable price. RISE earned “App of the Year” and partnered with then-First Lady Michelle Obama before One Medical Group acquired them in 2022.

Suneel has also personally backed ventures including Impossible Foods, AirBnB, 23&Me, and SpaceX. In addition, he was one of the very first investors in CALM, which now helps millions of people achieve a greater sense of work/life balance.

Bestselling Author

A “business survivor,” Suneel also authored the international bestselling book Backable. Backable follows Suneel’s inner journey from twice-failed entrepreneur to leader behind two IPOs and earning the title “The New Face of Innovation” from the New York Stock Exchange. Specifically, the book reveals the mindset shifts and hidden habits of people who are extraordinary at pushing new ideas forward.

Additionally, his transformative book, Everyday Dharma, codifies Suneel’s mission to help people reset, reignite, and re-engage. Simply put, Dharma brings “who you are” and “what you do” into alignment. When we’re aligned, we’re able to produce our best work and lead ourselves and others effectively, experiencing true joy along the way.

Other Ventures

As a visiting scholar at Harvard Medical School, Suneel researches and teaches the interconnection between inner well-being and outer leadership. He is also an emissary for Gross National Happiness between the United States and the Kingdom of Bhutan.

On top of that, Suneel hosted Business Class, a 2023 Webby Award-winning Series streaming on Amazon Prime. The show
spotlights the struggles, resilience, and work/life habits of entrepreneurs and business visionaries like Top Chef’s Tom Colicchio, former monk Jay Shetty, and Ben Cohen and Jerry
Greenfield (Ben & Jerry’s).

When a reporter once asked Suneel about his purpose, his response was to “find good people and inspire them to do what inspires them.”

Momentum: Being All In Without Burning Out

In the face of an exhaustion epidemic, it’s time to rethink how we view high performance. Grit and hustle have their place short term. But over time, they are scientifically associated with burnout. As CEO of RISE, Suneel Gupta helped thousands of people overcome their challenges with physical and mental health.

Now, he helps people build emotional runway to increase performance, innovation, and creativity. “The people who lose momentum very rarely run out of time or talent – they run out of energy,” says Suneel. This presentation roots itself in Suneel’s one-of-a-kind teaching at Harvard Medical School, as well as eight years of closely studying the habits of extraordinary leaders who reached breakthrough levels of productivity, resilience, fulfillment, and momentum.

Purpose in Action: Bringing Who You Are to Everything You Do

More than ever before, people are struggling to find meaning in their work. In this talk, Suneel Gupta helps people reset, reignite, and re-engage through a timeless practice called Dharma. Simply put, Dharma brings “who you are” and “what you do” into alignment. When we’re not aligned, we become exhausted, depleted, and burnt out. When we are aligned, we feel creative, energized, and lit up. We’re able to produce our best work and lead ourselves and others effectively, experiencing true joy along the way.

Suneel first learned the practice of Dharma from his grandfather on a porch in New Delhi. Years later, when he felt lost, exhausted, and struggled to find meaning in his work, he returned to the playbook his ancestors left behind. Even more, he related it to today’s fast-paced, changing world of work.

Suneel shares deeply personal stories of how he found a path back to purpose and joy and how others have done the same. By the end, you’ll be inspired with actionable tools to re-engage in your work and life with a renewed sense of vigor and meaning.

• Rediscover your “essence” and express that through your work.
• Be “all in” without being “always on.”
• Find comfort in the most uncomfortable of situations.
• Deal with failure and use it as a pathway to success.
• Find yourself by losing yourself through leading and uplifting others.
• Blur the lines between work and play to reach your highest potential.
• Forge ahead and take decisive action, even in the face of uncertainty.
