ABOUT THE SPEAKER
"Real growth isn't accidental - it's engineered."
Dr. Dhiraj Kantilal Jain
WHY LEADERS INVITE HIM
Dr. Dhiraj Jain does not perform on stage. He builds on stage. Every framework is drawn from companies he has founded, funded, or led. Every insight is tested in the market before it reaches the microphone.
He speaks as a founder who started from a one-bedroom flat and now leads 1XL Holdings from one of the world’s most iconic addresses. His audiences leave with structure, not sentiment.
SPEAKING TOPICS
WHAT DR. JAIN TALKS ABOUT
Each session is tailored to the audience and venue.
Custom topics on request.
01 · The Lazy CEO
A working session on building a business that runs without burning the founder down with it. Drawn from Dr. Jain’s book of the same name and twenty years of scaling ventures across India, the Gulf, and Europe.
Key Takeaways:
- How to design systems that produce growth without your daily presence
- The four leverage points that separate scalable companies from busy ones
- Why most founders confuse activity with progress — and how to stop
02 · The Growth Playbook
Smart, steady, and lasting growth in markets that punish speed. Built around the principles published in The Growth Playbook, this talk dismantles the obsession with hypergrowth and replaces it with the patience required to compound.
Key Takeaways:
- The metrics that actually predict long-term enterprise value
- How to identify which growth lever to pull, in which order, at which stage
- The case for boring growth in a noisy market
03 · Guerrilla Marketing in Real Estate
Unconventional strategies that move inventory in crowded markets. Drawn from Dr. Jain’s PhD research and three granted patents in property technology, this session is built for real estate developers, brokers, and marketing leaders.
Key Takeaways:
- Why traditional real estate marketing has stopped working in the GCC
- Five low-cost strategies that outperform paid media for high-ticket inventory
- How to use technology and storytelling to create urgency without discounting
04 · Dubai as Karmabhumi
Why the UAE has become the world’s most serious address for builders. A first-person account of building 1XL Holdings from a small flat in India to the 141st floor of the Burj Khalifa.
Key Takeaways:
- What India-origin entrepreneurs misunderstand about doing business in the Gulf
- The cultural code of Dubai’s business community — and how to enter it
- Why the next decade of wealth creation runs through this region
05 · The TGIS Framework
Trust. Growth. Integrity. Sustainability. The four operating principles that govern every venture under 1XL Holdings — and a practical model for leaders building organisations meant to last beyond their founders.
Key Takeaways:
- Why most “values” exercises fail and how TGIS avoids the trap
- How to operationalise integrity into measurable systems
- The link between founder values and enterprise valuation
06 · The PPSS Balance
Personal. Professional. Social. Spiritual. A framework for founders who want to build serious companies without losing the rest of their lives to them. Drawn from Dr. Jain’s own discipline of running multiple ventures while staying present as a husband, father, and community contributor.
Key Takeaways:
- Why “work-life balance” is the wrong framing — and what replaces it
- The structural choices that protect family, faith, and focus simultaneously
