Technology leaders, executives, and founders commonly report the following frustrations:
• inability to execute on organizational vision and strategy;
• operational silos that fail to communicate – causing unproductive conflict, cynicism, and apathy;
• problems with quality, implementation, and customer satisfaction. At the same time, engineers, developers, and technology professionals often c
omplain of the following:
• unclear requirements that lead to frustrating rework;
• too many priorities – resulting in overwhelm, burnout, and technical debt that never gets cleaned up;
• management decisions that seem disconnected from operational realities. The good news is that it doesn’t have to be this way. I help executives, leaders, engineers, and teams in small to mid-sized technology companies dramatically improve their communication and effectiveness, which produces the following tangible benefits:
• clarity of vision, alignment, and collaboration – within work groups and across functional units;
• dramatic improvements in morale, quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction;
• engagement, fulfillment, and flow in the workplace. I am a seasoned technology professional who has walked in your shoes, and also brings significant training in psychology and executive coaching. Unlike other coaches and facilitators who are heavy on soft skills and light on real world experience and results, I am an engineer with over 13 years of experience at a rapid-growth, high-stress, mission critical tech start-up – which grew from a nascent 12-person team into a world-leading organization of 300+ employees, and ultimately provided a successful exit for the shareholders. Having worked in DevOps, Product Management, Sales, Customer Success, and international Project Management, I’ve seen it all. I have developed business processes, led Agile transformation initiatives, navigated two corporate mergers, helped design and implement a major organizational restructuring, and trained customers, partners, and staff along the way. As a seasoned technology professional, I speak your language, and I have lived and breathed the challenges you face every day. I am also a skilled executive coach, with credentials from the Center for Executive Coaching, Newfield Network, and the International Coaching Federation (ICF). If you are a leader in a small to mid-sized technology company and would benefit from the clarity, confidence, and peace of mind that come with dramatically improved performance and team cohesion, please reach out to book a half-hour exploratory session. I would be delighted to learn about your specific challenges and see if we might be a mutual match.
