As the youngest member of enCOMPASSion’s team and a new mother, Alisha has effortlessly juggled the various roles that she plays and continues to work hard to ensure she is the independent woman she aspires to be. Having been with enCOMPASSion for almost two years, Alisha has made a place for herself not only in the marketing team but also in the hearts of everyone at enCOMPASSion.

Aishwarya Kannan

Consultant; Communications and Media Strategy

Throughout her career, Aishwarya Kannan has been a generalist, but her passion for language and its clever use has always stood out. While working with various startups in multiple capacities, she found herself drawn back to the world of content and marketing. Building brands and using the power of storytelling to connect with people has become her main focus. When she’s not working, she enjoys a cup of chai, some alone time, and exploring watercolours to escape the busy world around her.

Aishwarya’s renewed sense of purpose is fueled by a passion for working with brands that are committed to making a positive change in the world. At enCOMPASSion, she offers a much needed focus on effective communications and media strategy, supporting our vision of social change in the world.

Manasi Saxena

Founder-CEO, Board of Directors

As Founder, Manasi is the original offender, the instigator of most shenanigans, as she calls them, wild ideas, and general dreaming. The idea of enCOMPASSion came from her belief that everybody matters and everyone’s needs matter equally. The team at enCOMPASSion remains her biggest source of strength and the best partners in crime she could have asked for.

Manasi brings in her experience as a certified trainer with the Center for Nonviolent Communication (CNVC), where she also serves on the Board of Directors. She offers training on Nonviolent Communication, organisational development and community growth. You can read more about her work on this page.

Pranjal Tiwari

Volunteer; Human Resources & Deep Listening

Pranjal Tiwari is a Nonviolent Communication (NVC) certification candidate based in Pondicherry and Auroville. His focus is on mediation and conflict resolution, particularly within teams, organisations and families. It is with this intention that he first set out to learn about NVC. In the last couple of years, it has percolated into daily life, and is becoming an integral part of him.

Pranjal has been a crucial member of the Living Bridges team where he supports with organising learning programmes and other events. He also wears the “HR Hat” in enCOMPASSion, offering a much needed clarity, depth, and groundedness to our team!
