Kishore Siva

At Helios Franchise Advisors, Kishore helps individuals who are considering transitioning to business ownership. He made a significant career change a few years ago, after 25 years in senior executive roles at two of the world’s largest financial institutions. Kishore has worked in New York and London and led global teams across multiple disciplines.Like many professionals at that stage of their career, he was ready for something different—something that offered more autonomy and impact. With the help of a franchise consultant, Kishore became a franchisee of a global technology consulting franchise in 2020, where he focused on helping companies with consulting, automation, and staff augmentation services.Kishore was able to leverage his corporate experience to build his franchise business. At the same time, he began actively supporting others exploring the same transition—from corporate careers to entrepreneurship—through Helios Franchise Advisors.This career shift has been especially rewarding. In addition to running two successful businesses, Kishore plays guitar in a local rock band, coaches his son’s youth baseball and football teams, and volunteers in the community. He’s grateful for the flexibility business ownership has provided, and for the time it allows him to spend with his wife and two sons, and to pursue his passions outside of work.Kishore holds both a BBA and MBA from George Washington University. He lives with his family in Westchester County, New York.
