Credentials & Expertise
"Every engagement we take on is personal to me. I have never sent a junior consultant where I promised a senior practitioner. That is the Seven People Systems commitment — and it has held for 27 years." — Nikhil Maini
18 Years as an Organisational Development Company in India
Founded in Mumbai: Where It All Began
Seven People Systems launched in Mumbai as an employee development practice. Nikhil Maini built the firm on a belief that people transformation was underserved in Indian organisations. Therefore, he created a diagnostics-first model — grounded in science, not opinion. Consequently, the firm began growing steadily from its very first year of operation.
Expanding HR and OD Consulting Across Asia
By 2010, demand for people transformation consulting had outpaced expectations. As a result, Seven People Systems expanded into full-scope HR and management consulting. Moreover, we extended our geographic reach to South Asia and Southeast Asia. This expansion established our people strategy consulting practice as a credible cross-border operation.
OKR International Is Born — Seven People Systems Becomes India Franchise Partner
In 2016, Nikhil Maini created OKR International as a global brand for strategy execution. In 2023, OKR International became a distinct legal entity, headquartered in Dubai, UAE. Consequently, Seven People Systems became the official OKR International India franchise partner. Therefore, Indian organisations now access OKR-BOK™ — the world's only published OKR framework — through our practice exclusively.
Furthermore, this positions Seven People Systems as the only organisational development company in India with a globally certified OKR methodology.
