How we work together

Coaching and team work for senior leaders and the teams they run — built around the decisions in front of you, not generic frameworks.

Where to begin

The Diagnostic is the usual first step; the engagements are the deeper work it points to, and one is a capability that runs across all of them. Each lays out what’s involved.

Start here

The Diagnostic

A fixed-scope first step — for a leader, or a team.

The bigger engagements are a real commitment — six months of coaching, or a full team program. The Diagnostic is a short, fixed-price first step: I assess what’s actually going on, then give you a clear read and a recommended way forward — before either of us commits to more.

For a leader

Interviews with the leader, 360 feedback from the people around them, and a leadership assessment. You get a written report and a video walk-through of what it found and the recommended way forward. If you go on to one-to-one coaching, your first month is half price.

For a team

Interviews with the team, direct observation, and a validated team assessment. You get a written report and a one-hour virtual session where I walk the team through what it showed. The report lays out the way forward; working it is the follow-on group engagement — and half the Diagnostic fee credits toward that.

One-to-one executive coaching

Sustained, private work on how you lead.

Direct work on the leadership questions that matter most. The conversations focus on the decisions you’re making in real time, the patterns in how you operate, and the leader you want to become.

A standing 30-minute session, every other week. Six-month engagements that renew when both of us see the value continuing.

What you get

  • Asynchronous support between sessions (text, email, voice notes)
  • Honest feedback, solely focused on your growth and success
  • A confidant who has led under pressure

Best for

  • Senior executives in transition or scale
  • Founders past product-market fit
  • Leaders preparing for a step-change in scope or visibility

$3,500 per month. Six-month engagement, sessions every other week with direct access between them.

A limited number of engagements each year are reserved at $2,500 per month for leaders funding their own development.

Leadership workshops

Built for you, designed for impact.

Facilitated working sessions and offsites for leadership teams. Each one is designed around your team’s actual challenges rather than an off-the-shelf curriculum: we name the hard questions, work them in the room, and leave with decisions and commitments rather than notes.

Half-day and full-day formats, on-site or off-site. Designed with you in advance, facilitated end to end.

What you get

  • A session built around your team’s real challenges
  • Facilitation that keeps senior people honest and engaged
  • Clear commitments coming out of the room

Best for

  • Leadership teams at an inflection point
  • Offsites that need to produce more than alignment slides
  • Organizations investing in their next generation of leaders

$25,000 for a full-day session, teams of up to ten. Extended engagements from $35,000.

Larger teams and multi-day formats scoped on request.

Team performance and dynamics

See how the team actually operates, then improve it.

Group assessment and team dynamics work for organic teams. We look at how decisions get made, where information stalls, and what goes unsaid, then work those findings with the team directly. The goal is a team that performs under pressure, not a report.

Typically begins with the Diagnostic — the fixed-scope first step — then working sessions with the full team.

What you get

  • An honest read on how the team decides, communicates, and handles friction
  • Findings worked with the team in the room, not delivered as a deck
  • A practical path to better performance under pressure

Best for

  • Teams whose results lag their talent
  • New leadership teams formed by growth or reorganization
  • Teams where the hard conversation keeps not happening

Most engagements run $25,000 to $40,000, scoped after the Diagnostic — which can also be contracted on its own.

Leadership in classified environments

Much of my career was spent leading in secure and classified settings. For leaders who operate inside classified spaces, where bringing in an outside coach is rarely straightforward, I can work in those environments with the context and discretion the setting demands. If your team’s hardest problems can’t leave the room, the coaching doesn’t have to either.

Every engagement — the Diagnostic included — starts with a free 30-minute discovery call, where we confirm scope, fit, and the right first step. Pricing is listed with each offering.
