About Sodan Selva

The DNA for Movements and Insurgency – beating traditional paths by forging success from unexpected means – has always fueled the challenge of the status quo, from positions of leadership and success from his early days at schools and universities globally. Joining his love for new directions and a high sensitivity for business, Sodan grew as an executive and operator, as the primary catalyst alongside C-suite leaders in the pursuit of innovation and transformation at public (Disney), private equity (Blackstone Capital) and venture capital (SAP Founder’s Hasso Plattner Ventures) funded companies. In 2014, he founded Chia Ventures, Inc., based in Silicon Valley, with the mission to crack the code on how established companies could successfully transform, innovate and repeatedly grow today, realizing classical wisdom of the 20th century could not keep up. After three years of R&D, testing, piloting, learning from C-level transformationalists, learning from cross-disciplinary researchers at Stanford University, the Movement Maker program was launched. He now educates, coaches, trains and operates alongside C-suite, senior executives and emerging leaders.
