What got you here, won't get you there!
Over the last 10+ years, I've learned a lot about what it takes to become a Successful Engineering Leader, building successful teams, growing folks at all skill levels.
Being a Leader is not easy, and no one has got it all figured out. But, if I can do it, so can you as long as you’ve got the correct tools, resources, and guidance.
👉 How many times have you personally experienced or witnessed the consequences of a poor leader or a toxic manager within a company?
I was tired of hearing the same story.
I took the lessons learned from these experiences and set out on a mission to create better engineering leaders.
It's time to put an end to it. This is why I created a program that gives you all the tools necessary to be a successful leader along with the support from community for accountability!
I'm ready to Enroll Now!

Software is Easy, People are Hard
You are managing people, not computers. When you transition from being a Developer to an Engineering Manager you'll most likely feel this way,
- You'll feel like an outsider as you are your team's leader now
- You'll not know how to say 'No'
- You won't be able to code as much as you did
- You'll feel lonely at first as your peers are no longer other devs in your team
- You'll know a lot more that you need to keep confidential
- If you are an introvert, you need to find new ways to energize yourself
Well, Should you be an Engineering Manager?
- Growing people is one of the most rewarding things you will do in your career
- You'll be able to influence the future direction of the org, not just your team
- Your impact will grow as your perspective needs to shift, your org is now your team 🪴

8 easy-to-follow steps
“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” - James Clear
You might be a great developer but have no idea how to manage!
I was tasked with leading a team of developers as an Engineering Manager. I was excited for the opportunity, but I soon realized that the role came with its own set of challenges. Unlike my previous role as an individual contributor, there was no clear definition of done nor acceptance criteria to guide my progress.
How do you assess your progress and ensure that you're on the right track? This was the question that plagued me as I made the transition from individual contributor to Engineering Leader.
But I didn't let the uncertainty get the best of me. I rolled up my sleeves and got to work, learning through my mistakes and growing as a leader. And you know what? I wasn't alone.
Many of the developers I coached as they transitioned into management roles faced similar challenges and made the same mistakes.
With this Leadership Program,
I want to share my journey with you. I have a wealth of experience to draw from so you are in the right hands.
I'll teach you from the mistakes I made, and the strategies I developed to become a Successful Engineering Leader.
Let's make sure you don't repeat the same mistakes and start your own success story. 💪
So How do you succeed as a Engineering Manager without feeling stressed and overwhelmed? Introducing The Engineering Leadership System

Lift each other up in the CommunityDon't worry, you are not alone! 💜
A lot of Senior Engineering Leaders you look up to in your company or online have their own board of advisors. This allows them to amplify their work.
You'll also get access to a Premium community so you get the support needed and learn from other Engineering Leaders on a similar path as you.
Have a important stakeholder conversation? Ask in the community! Need to chat about how to lead a new team? Discuss in the community!
So... How does the Community work?
Think of the Community as a Shared Knowledge Hub and Collective Learning. We have the following activities in the community tailored to help you become a better leader!
🎯
↪ Shared Focus Sprints aka Light-weight cohorts
Inside the community, we will be running Shared Focus Sprints.
They will vary from 2-3 weeks and they will focus on elements of helping you grow as a Leader.
You can participate to whatever degree you'd like – you can watch my instructional videos on your own time, join our live sessions, or both.
Feedback is very valuable especially from folks that are walking the same path as you.
Bi-weekly, I will host an open Office Hours session for you to come and ask any questions you may have.
🤝
↩ Honest Feedback from other Leaders
🔥
↪ Monthly Hot Seats
Monthly, I will open up my calendar to Hot Seats which are recorded 1:1 coaching conversations right inside the community.
You can attend them live or watch them at your own pace.
You will learn from other leaders and learn the strategies they are using to grow their teams.
💡This is not just a Course but it is also a Community!

Frequently Asked Questions
I want you to be happy with the investment you make in this program. But I want you to realise that you also have to put in the work to become a Leader.
If you go through the full program, and you still aren’t happy with the material then simply email me and I will happily refund your full payment within 30 days of purchase.
Just send me an email and I'll refund you.
Yes! In fact, I've prewritten an email template to make it easier to ask your manager.
You don't need any leadership experience to do well in this program.
Yes, absolutely! This is a program, not just a course.
You will get access to a exclusive community where you will be able to network and connect with other leaders who are on a similar journey as you.
We will have hot seats, office hours, Shared focus sprints and more so there will be many opportunities for you to connect with others.
You will get early access to half the modules of the program while the rest of the modules are still being worked on but are close to getting done.
Once the rest of the modules are done, you will get access to 100% of the program hence you get a hefty discount on the program price.
The remaining modules will be available no later than end of May. Although, you won't be able to take advantage of the Early Access Pricing once the full program is ready. The price will go up.
I strongly believe that students that only rely on the curriculum without taking advantage of the community struggle a lot and don't get to experience the full value of the course.
With community, you get additional accountability and support. You don't have to do this alone.
This isn't just a course - it's a program. I strongly encourage you to utilize the community forum to ask questions and make use of the Hot Seats, office hours and shared focus sprints.
There is some content that can be best delivered via video vs text and vice versa. This program follows a hybrid model. Depending on the topic, the course element of the program will be either delivered via video or text. You can think of text as mini e-books.
Yes, it does! I want you to be proud of the program completion and show off your Leadership skills.
Yes, you will get an invoice immediately after you program the course.
It is now YOUR Turn to Become a Successful Engineering Leader!
