From Individual Contributor to Confident Manager | 30-Year Executive
Early in my career, a senior leader gave me a book about making the transition from engineer to manager. I studied and applied it, and within 18 months I was leading the team—beginning a 30-year career building products, businesses, and organizations. Since then, I have coached and mentored professionals at every stage of leadership. Today, I help high-performing individual contributors make that same critical transition: letting go of being the person who does everything, learning to lead through others, and developing the judgment, confidence, and communication skills required to become an effective manager.
