Tech Leadership & Career Growth Coach
Helping You Upgrade into Management and Lead Effectively with Your Unique Strengths
Career Growth Coaching
For current Tech or Engineering Professionals looking to Upgrade into Management and create an Impactful career, making a difference and getting paid well for it.
Leadership and Executive Coaching
For current Tech or Engineering Managers and Executive Leaders, looking to enhance your Leadership and Personal Effectiveness.
What Is Leadership and Career Growth Coaching?
Leadership can take a lot out of leaders. We all need a safe and supportive space where we can be heard and supported. This helps us show up day-in and day-out, leading ourselves and inspiring those who we have the privilege to lead. Someone who has been on the same journey, who can help us see our blindspots and guide us away from crashing into the rocks and destroying our careers. Coaching is the key to help unlock your strengths, grow and thrive as a leader.
Who Is Coaching For?
Coaching is for everyone who wants to tap into their natural inner resources, to grow, thrive and be their best selves. As leaders, and especially leaders in the complex and highly stressful Engineering and Technology spaces, coaching can help uncover and tap into your natural and unique strengths, helping you lead from the front and inspire your teams to do their best work, while enjoying the work they do and impact they have.

Upgrade into Management
(Group Program)
This program is for Tech and Engineers Professionals with at least 3 – 5 years experience, who are looking to get into a Management role.
More Details
This program is based on my own learning and from the experience of helping other Tech and Engineering Professionals Upgrade into Management.
A huge realisation after many years of struggling to get interviews for management roles, even after doing exceptional work as a Tech and Engineering Professional is the fact that it is a Career Change, not just a promotion.
Along the way, realising that our natural unique strengths give us an advantage when used right led to being able to get interviews and offers to the right roles.
If you are looking for the edge that will finally help you make that shift and get your dream management role, with the prestige, much better pay (usually 30 – 50%+ your current pay), and the ability to have a positive impact on your team, company and their clients, then this is the program for you.
The skills and knowledge you gain will not only help you in getting your next role, but will help you for the rest of your career to get the right roles for you an build a fulfilling and well compensated career.
Look forward to seeing you on the inside. 🙂

Your First 120 Days in Management
(Group Program)
This program is for new Tech and Engineering Managers looking to start their Management career strong.
More Details
Getting into Management is a Career Change when we come from a Tech or Engineering role.
The first 120 days in a new role is where we get to set the precedent for our new career and the impact we can have in the company.
There are pitfalls that can derail us, and opportunities that we can miss, that will make it harder to create that great first impression to accelerate the impact we can have.
In this program I share my own learning and what I’ve learnt from helping others who had made the career change into management.
This will help you start well, putting your best foot forward.
If you have just started a new role in management, this is the program for you.
Look forward to seeing you on the inside. 🙂

What is The Process Like (group programs)?
In our group programs, we have some core curriculum that helps in gaining the skills and knowledge required to get to your goals.
We meet in a group call once a week to get questions answered, get unstuck with any challenges you are facing, so you can keep moving forward towards your goal to be an effective and inspiring leader.
1. Core Program - Gives you the required Foundational Skills
This part of the program gives you all the fundamentals required to achieve your goal.
This part of the program can be done at your own pace, and you can start implementing ASAP.
2. Weekly Group Call - Get your questions answered
Unlike ‘courses’, in a group coaching program, you’ll be able to get on a live call and get your questions answered, and receive customised feedback to help with your current issue. This means getting unstuck quickly and making progress towards your goals. No need for any guess work.
3. Bonus Material - Gives you extra skills and knowledge to thrive
Any extra skills and knowledge that will help you with other aspects that are not ‘core’ to accomplishing your goal, as well as little tools to help accelerate your journey is covered in the bonuses
4. Tools and Templates to help Accelerate your Results
In addition to the bonuses, there are tools and templates that will help you with different aspect of your journey, so that you don’t need to reinvent the wheel, so to speak.
5. Ideas from my latest research to help your effectiveness
I am constantly learning from courses, books and from working with many leaders. As I find useful strategies, tools and frameworks, you’ll be the first to know and use them in your leadership journey. Tested and proven, ready to be installed in your processes.
1. Figure out your Big Vision
Most of us who get into leadership tend to be vision driven. Some times, this gets too narrowed and focused on our career, to the detriment of other aspects of our lives.
When we work together, we will figure out your holistic life vision, of which your career is only one portion. This way, you will be able to figure out your own unique path to live a fully actualised, fulfilled and integrated life.
As you already know, leadership starts with self-leadership.
2. Figure out your highest Impact Goal
Once you figure out your big vision, it makes the task of figuring out your next highest impact goal to focus on becomes simpler.
The whole concept of ‘work-life balance’ is a myth.
We are going to be imbalanced when we focus on one area to work on, but with the right maintenance strategies, the other areas do not fall behind, and you will be able to live a more ‘integrated’ life.
3. Choose your customised path
With 1:1 coaching, the approach we take will be fully customised to you, your goals, and the path you want to take.
The R.A.P.I.D. Transformation and Next Level Transformation models are two of many models available as tools to help with customising your path to transformation.
4. Utilise the power of the right Transformation Process
Depending on your vision, goals and comfort level, we can pick the right transformation model to help you with your specific next transformation towards living the integrated life and be an inspirational leader.
5. Consolidate a strong anchor point to build on for future transformations
Every Transformation is a stepping stone to the next one (if you desire more), when living an integrated life. You need to anchor the transformation and progress, maintaining it while we embark on the next transformation that continues to help you tap into your unique strengths to create an impact on the world in your own way, while living a life that you find fulfilling.
What is The Process Like (1:1 Executive Coaching)?
In the 1:1 Executive Coaching Program, we work through a holistic R.A.P.I.D. Transformation process that is customised to you and your vision for your life and career.
