The Ed Cohen

Friends, I need your help. When I was 6, a boy named Roy White saved my life in a fire. Nearly 60 years later, I’m still searching for him—or someone who knows his family. This week the Chicago Sun-Times published my letter and the original photo from that day.

Building High-Performing Teams with Ed Cohen atdvoices.gv-one.com/entity-share?r…

Worlds Apart launched in India this week. So proud of my co-author, Devi. Available exclusively on Amazon.in

Worlds Apart, co-authored by Ed Cohen and Devi Boddu, found a grand display at the World HRD Congress in Mumbai today. We at Om Books International are proud to be associated with the literary success of this inspiring author duo. Rooted in themes of courage, belief, connection, and education, Worlds Apart resonated deeply at a global platform dedicated to leadership and human development. In keeping with the spirit of the book, Ed Cohen is donating his royalties from Worlds Apart to help educate more girls across India—extending the story’s message of belief and opportunity beyond the page and into real lives. It is this rare alignment of narrative and purpose that makes the book particularly meaningful. Worlds Apart is now available online across all major platforms.

Thrilled to announce Worlds Apart: A True Story of Courage, Connection, and Change—co-authored with @DeviBoddu. Available at amazon.in A story born in India, shaped by friendship, and grounded in what connects us across cultures. 🌍📘 #WorldsApart #Leadership #India

@sayesekhar @netflix @NetflixIndia @BillClinton @ncbn Nice article. It misstates my role. I was Chief Learning Officer at Satyam, not VP of Talent Acquisition. My work was in leadership & culture, not recruiting.

A story authored by me on the latest episode of #BadBoyBillionaires on @netflix @NetflixIndia on #SatyamComputer #RamalingaRaju… A man the world noticed along side @BillClinton and @ncbn in year 2000 is now ignored by all..: The once-regarded software bellwether Satyam Computers disappeared. How @ashleygething70 captured the story so well. @oratorgreat @suchetadalal @H_Thalapalli @ed_leaderspeak @CoreenaSuares2 @anandmahindra @rkarnad

@suchetadalal Hello Sucheta, I saw the episode about Raju. I will be in India releasing my new book about reciprical mentoring called Worlds Apart in Feb (edcohen.org). Would be great to meet.

.

I’m returning to India in February to deliver opening keynote at HRD World Congress in Mumbai—& to launch Worlds Apart: A True Story of Courage, Connection, & Change with Devi Boddu. A story of reciprocal mentoring, growth, and what happens when two worlds meet. #leadership

The day after the fire, I woke wrapped in gauze, smelling of smoke and medicine. My mother sat silent-father didn’t come. At six, all I knew was that everything hurt. #Healing isn’t forgetting—it’s learning to walk without letting the burn define you. #Resilience #Vulnerability

💚 World Mental Health Day 💚 Healing begins when we let ourselves be seen, when we tell the truth about what hurts, and when we listen — really listen. 👂 We’re all carrying something. The difference comes when we carry it together. 🤲 #WorldMentalHealthDay #HealingTogether
