Your Leadership Discovery - Find Your Starting Point

Remember that moment when you realized being good at code doesn't mean you're good at leading people?

Maybe it was your first 1-on-1 that went sideways. Or when your team member challenged your decision, and you had no idea how to respond. Or the 3 am panic where you're fixing their work because "it's just easier if I do it myself."

I've had all these moments. And I've watched over 50 engineers go through them too.
​
Here's what I wish someone had told me when I stepped into my first leadership role at GE: This transition is supposed to be hard. You're learning an entirely new skill set. The problem isn't you—it's that nobody teaches engineers how to become leaders.
​
This free 30-minute session exists to give you what I didn't have: honest guidance from someone who's been there.

Here's how we'll spend our time together:
We'll start with where you are right now. What's your biggest frustration? Where are you stuck? I'll ask questions to understand what's really going on—not just the surface problem.
​
Then we'll dig into what's actually holding you back. Usually, it's not what you think. Most new managers struggle with the same patterns, and once you see the pattern, the solution becomes clearer.
​
Finally, we'll create one specific action you can take. Not a vague goal like "be better at delegation"—a concrete strategy you can try Monday morning.

This session is perfect if you:

• Just got promoted and feel like you're faking it
• Can't stop jumping in to fix technical problems yourself
• Don't know how to handle a difficult team member
• Feel overwhelmed with no clear starting point

Wonder if you're actually cut out for leadership (you probably are)

What you'll leave with:
✓ Complete clarity on your #1 obstacle
✓ One actionable strategy to try immediately
✓ Honest feedback—no sugar coating
✓ Relief that you're not alone in this

Why free? Because when I made this transition, I struggled alone for months. I made mistakes that hurt my team's trust and my confidence. I wish someone had offered me 30 minutes of straight talk. Now I do that for others.
​
Come prepared: Bring one specific situation that frustrated you recently. The more specific, the better our conversation.
