Gagan Levy

For two decades, Gagan Levy and his award-winning creative agency, Guru, have helped catalyze and amplify some of the most alive movements and conscious companies of our time. His work has spanned brands like Patagonia, Clif Bar, and Traditional Medicinals; institutions like NASA; as well as movements in regenerative agriculture, psychedelic healing, purpose-led business, and even the mighty MoveOn campaign during Obama ’08. He’s also the co-founder of Maha Global, an AI-powered decision intelligence platform used by public corporations to understand in real-time the gap between their reputation and behavior and the inherent risks and/or opportunities that exist to act upon.

Gagan's book, Start Your Own Damn Cult: A Founder's Field Guide (released May 26'), reverse-engineers decades of some of the most successful movement building and company catalyzing on the planet, laying out a practical and actionable framework for building from coherence, holding power without unraveling, and winning without wrecking yourself, your team, or the planet.

As former Co-Chair of the Social Venture Network (the folks who helped birth B Corp), he’s helped redesign capitalism with a conscience. As a board member of Ram Dass’ Love Serve Remember Foundation, he’s worked to carry ancient wisdom into modern hands without watering it down. He is a visionary bridge between the business and spiritual worlds.
