Executive coaching for CTOs & senior engineering leaders

I help CTOs and senior engineering leaders make the critical shift from accomplished technical experts to well-rounded, adaptive executive leaders. Rather than just helping you get better at what you’re already good at, my coaching focuses on developing the strategic, organisational, interpersonal and mindset skills needed to scale with your company.

• Problem solving & decision making under uncertainty – intuitive expertise & trusting your gut; navigating uncertainty & ‘not knowing’; building experimental mindsets; space for reflection
• Building C-level influence – from technical oversight to strategic vision-setting; influence through relationships and communication rather than technical authority
• Time management & focus – improved delegation of technical decisions; creating ‘makers time’ for big-picture thinking; resisting the urge to dive into technical weeds
• People management – transitioning from task management to people development; providing constructive feedback; building accountability systems that empower rather than control
• Seeing the system – understanding organisational dynamics; navigating polarities, building systems thinking capabilities, ‘getting off the dancefloor and onto the balcony’
• Strategy & Vision – moving from the ‘how’ to the ‘what’ and ‘why’; market sensemaking; ‘changing the game’ rather than optimizing existing systems
• Work / Life – setting boundaries while maintaining high performance; integrating family priorities with professional ambitions; developing sustainable leadership practices
• Purpose & Meaning – connecting personal purpose to organizational mission; transitioning from Individual Contributor to leader identity; finding meaning in others’ success
