👥 Soft Skills Coaching for Technical Leaders

Being a strong engineer doesn’t automatically make you a strong leader.

This coaching engagement is for tech leads, senior ICs, and new managers who want to grow beyond technical excellence. You’re responsible for influence, communication, and team health…but no one really taught you how.

You’re figuring it out on the fly. You might be asking:

“How do I lead without formal authority?”
“How do I give feedback that actually lands?”
“How do I navigate conflicts, politics, and exec meetings with confidence?”

This coaching is about building the soft skills that matter most in leadership…and doing it in a way that still feels authentic to who you are.

What you’ll get from working together

I’ve led engineering teams at Facebook, Pinterest, and LinkedIn. I understand the pressures of delivery, tech debt, cross-functional chaos, and unclear expectations. This coaching is grounded in the reality of your world.

We’ll focus on what matters most for you right now, common topics include:

Giving hard feedback
Communicating with execs and stakeholders
Navigating cross-functional conflict and misalignment
Managing up without losing your voice
Facilitating inclusive, productive discussions
Shaping team culture intentionally
Becoming a leader others want to follow

Duration: 1 hour

🧑‍🧒‍🧒 Coaching for Managers

You just became a manager. Now what?

This coaching engagement is for ICs who’ve recently stepped into their first leadership role and want to get it right. You’re navigating new expectations, new team dynamics, and a completely different definition of success.

You might be thinking:

“Am I doing this right?”
“How do I build trust without trying to prove myself too fast?”
“What does success even look like in this role?”

You don’t need a generic training program. You need real conversations with someone who’s led teams, made mistakes, and can help you build your own leadership style from day one.

What you’ll get from working together

We’ll work through challenges like:

Building trust with your team without micromanaging
Giving feedback and running effective 1:1s
Managing up and aligning with your leadership
Leading former peers with clarity and confidence
Navigating team performance issues and setting expectations
Balancing delivery with people leadership
Avoiding burnout while learning on the job
Handling hard conversations with confidence
Showing up like a leader before you feel like one

Duration: 1 hour
