Strengthening organizations by coaching leaders to better support their people and technology.

For CTOs and VPs #

Do you lead product or engineering for a growing company and find yourself pressed for time? Do you wish your team could execute with more impact to your business?

Often, growing engineering organizations struggle with a variety of issues such as:

• Escalating quality issues, leading to outages or other customer pain
• Decreased engineering productivity, with changes feeling like they take longer to implement
• Unhappy team members, who no longer feel as connected as when the company was smaller

There’s very little that our schooling or prior roles has done to prepare you for how to handle these concerns.

You may benefit from some consulting to help you determine the best path forward.

As an experienced leader, I will work with you to diagnose challenges within your organization and then put in place a plan to incrementally fix and improve them. I can review your technology and work directly with your people as well.

Emil worked with our engineering team to help us mature as an organization and set a solid foundation to scale. He provided exceptional feedback on how our team can structure technical initiatives to maximize impact and develop our organization to lay a foundation to scale. He also worked with me directly to provide executive coaching on scaling to run a larger engineering team as well as senior engineers on our team on how they can maximize their impact.

Emil is both incredibly sharp technically and very business focused, making him a great choice for scaling engineering teams.

If you are a leader within a growing organization, you may find youself struggling to balance all the growing demands on your time. An experienced mentor may be able to help you better understand your challenges and how you can improve your own abilities.

Emil mentored myself and 3 others directly on the topic of leadership. He created a safe space for us to be vulnerable and share our daily struggles trying to develop our own leadership skills. Emil provided incredible insight into our problems recommending small but powerful changes such as avoiding using why in our communication. He would always end our sessions with action items for us to follow up on before our next session which enabled us to improve actively between meetings. He also always had an article or book on hand for any leadership topic - he is constantly expanding his own leadership skills and expanding those of others.
