Helping Engineers
Become Great Leaders

Our goal is to help you become the leader that everyone wants to work for and learn from -  the leader who brings out the best in themselves and others while achieving extraordinary results.

 

"People quit people, not companies."

- John Maxwell

LET'S GET STARTED

41%

of business leaders believe that their organizations fail to meet the needed leadership standards*

Companies know they need to develop technical talent into leaders, but don’t always do a good job.

We don’t see companies asking a great leader with a business background to be an engineer without extensive training, yet it’s a common occurrence to move a great engineer into a leadership role thinking they can "figure it out."

Moving an engineer into leadership without training is a lose-lose for everyone.

Executives are wondering why these rockstar engineers...

  • Can’t speak in terms they understand
  • Aren’t delegating work to the team
  • Seem overwhelmed & can’t effectively manage time
  • Struggle to get along with team members

Engineers who go from rockstar to struggling leader are left unsure how to...

  • Understand the emotional state of the team
  • Have difficult conversations with their team or peers
  • Trust their team when they have less technical expertise
  • Handle the changing requirements of business leaders
  • Interview people to find the right fit for my team

“Don’t let your learning lead to knowledge.  Let your learning lead to action.”  - Jim Rohn

Some words from one of our clients...

"I’ve worked with Janet in the past in very difficult situations that required people, process, and accountability to change. She is an expert in making order out of chaos, quickly getting to the root causes of problems. Her analysis is thorough, thoughtful, and she calmly, but assertively ‘tells it like it is.’ She is a tireless worker who leads by example and believes in enabling a team by teaching and coaching, not commanding. This instills confidence and leaves behind inspired professionals, prepared to succeed again and again."
