What is included?

A complete package of 1-on-1 coaching, training, accountability, and services...tailored to your company...and focused on quarterly growth and engagement.

Quarterly Roadmaps

It can be difficult to know which work will have the biggest impact on your goals and objectives.

Every quarter we help you to identify the most high-impact areas to focus on...break this work down into small pieces...and get results.

We do this hands-on...tuned specifically to you and your company.

Actionable Next Steps

Often progress and results is slowed down due to complexity, confusion, and getting started.

We significantly reduce this risk by helping to break down next steps into small, actionable pieces...with clear trainings, templates, and materials.

This enables your team to work faster, reduce complexity, and get to results faster than ever before.

1-on-1 Coaching

Consultants, training courses, and books often don't result in practical results in the field.

Why? ...because they deliver information...and information is not enough to get results.

Instead, we work with you every single week, providing 1-on-1 coaching, problem-solving, work reviews...all tuned specifically to you.

This enables you to solve problems more quickly, build skills faster, and fine-tune your results.

Metrics and ROI Tracking

The only way to get real results is to measure, iterate, and improve...but this is often complicated and confusing.

We help you to get clear on what to measure that will have the most impact...and to regularly drive progress in those metrics.

This is where our coaching, work reviews, and feedback culminate to regularly drive progress.

team Optimization

A lot of amazingly talented people work in teams that are not optimized for success.

We significantly reduce this risk by not just coaching and problem-solving with your team...but we also share key insights in how to set your team members up to win.

This is delivered via clear reporting, 1-on-1 team feedback on on Zoom, and clear next steps to harness opportunities and strengthen weaknesses.

Group Working Sessions

We have been coaching companies for 26 years...but we don't claim to have all the answers.

Some of the most insightful, ground breaking insights come from our incredible members who work across multiple areas of tech.

We pull out members together for regular live sessions where we break down complex topics, share and brainstorm ideas, bring in experts to pick their brains, and much more.

This is not only helpful...but also inspires everyone to be bolder and more creative in their work.

Private Community

The only way in which true wisdom is formed is having ideas, poking them, and exploring what is possible.

Our private community is an unbelievable source of practical problem-solving, ideation, and more.

Our members love to share their experience and wisdom, and our community is an invaluable resource to get gut-checks, ideas, and find problem spots in your work that you can fix.

Including Powerups

We don't just provide industry-leading coaching, training, and accountability in your community/devrel work...but we also roll our sleeves up and help to create practical, downloadable content, insights, and data you can use to speed up your community growth, engagement, and results.

These are called Powerups - a growing collection of services that are included in your membership.
