In addition, I worked with multiple executive teams as a member of Bain's Leadership Practice to create stronger direction, better discipline, more dynamism, shared drive, and deeper collaboration. Beyond my experience at Bain, I am trained in the Co-Active Training Institute model of leadership coaching.

Engineering leader with over 20 years of experience leading teams at start ups (like Opendoor, Headspace) and large enterprises like IBM and Opentext has taught me some tough lessons where I came across opportunities that allowed to scale, fail, learn and grow from those opportunities.

I don't like to be fuzzy with my coaching but like to be very specific and tactical when it comes to achieving goals we set out for each other. Some topics that you might find helpful in connecting with me are: - how to institute a culture of accountability and growth mindset - how to draft a product or engineering strategy - how to motivate my team members to do their best work, especially when the company is going through some challenges - how do I promote my team members - how to provide feedback as leader and how to work on feedback given to you - how to continue to stay technical (assuming you are in tech) when you are a leader
