Does this sound familiar?
- You want to be a better leader, but your 1:1s with your manager focus on business problems, and not on your career.
- You want to get promoted, but you’re hearing vague feedback about “ownership” or other company values that don’t really tell you what to change.
- You just became a manager, and you’re not sure how to balance your time between coding, meetings, and supporting your team.
- You come away from 1:1s feeling like you didn’t get what you needed.
- You’re dealing with a difficult team member, and you’re not sure how to handle it.
As the tech industry goes through cycles of flattening org structures and “doing more with less”, managers and senior-leaning individual contributors are implicitly being asked to manage themselves, leading to limited growth opportunities and burnout. When you’re not getting the support you need to thrive in your career, coaching is a great way to fill the support gap. As a senior engineering manager, I’ve been on both sides of promotion panels and performance reviews. I’ve coached dozens of technologists to get the growth that they deserve, whether it’s a promotion or a role that leverages their best strengths. As your coach, I work for you, not your organization, to identify your values, develop your growth path and help you thrive.
