Leadership is hard. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
EXECUTIVE COACHING & CONSULTING
I work with founders, executives, and senior leaders navigating growth, change, and difficult people decisions.
After 25 years leading technology businesses and teams, I bring an experienced operator’s perspective, thoughtful questions and candid conversation. Together, we turn what feels tangled into a clearer decision and a practical next step.
MAX POWERS - COACH & ADVISOR
15 minutes to talk about what’s happening and whether working together makes sense.
Leadership doesn’t get easier because your title gets bigger.
The biggest challenges are rarely in the spreadsheets. They’re about the people. I help you untangle what’s happening, understand why you’re stuck, and figure out what to do next.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
You keep initiating change, but the business isn’t responding.
Second-guessing decisions you aren’t comfortable talking through internally.
You’re unsure of, or preparing, for a bigger role or company change or decision.
You know that you, or the business, are capable of more.
You’re stuck, and simply need a sounding board to talk things through.
What I hear most from my clients:
HOW I WORK
Two ways to work together
COACHING
Leadership Coaching
A confidential place to think out loud, work through difficult decisions, and navigate leadership challenges with someone who’s been there.
Helping leaders delegate and stick with it.
Getting leadership teams pulling in the same direction.
Making better people decisions.
Navigating tricky relationships.
Figuring out what actually matters right now.
CONSULTINGAdvisory & Consulting
Technology is changing quickly. The organizations that thrive won’t just adopt AI, they’ll build leaders and teams who can adapt, communicate well, make good decisions and execute together. I call this the human edge.
Operator-level support with real execution.
Fix the things that are slowing the business down.
Support periods of growth, transition, or change.
Diagnose and work through execution or go-to-market gaps.
Bring structure and clarity to situations that feel stuck.
