About Soni Basi
With a Ph.D. in Psychology and a track record of leading global HR functions at iconic companies like The Estée Lauder Companies, AIG, Allergan, Merck and Edelman, I’ve guided organizations through CEO transitions, a range of M&A deals (from $5M to $63B), digital and cultural transformation. I specialize in aligning people strategy with business growth—from architecting executive pipelines to shaping inclusive talent ecosystems (from hiring through to downsizing). I’ve lived in India, England, Canada, and the U.S., and I serve on nonprofit boards focused on equity and youth opportunity. Whether you’re a founder, executive, or emerging leader, I bring strategic insight, global perspective, and a deeply human approach to helping you lead with purpose, resilience, and impact.
