This is for Product Designers who want to be more effective with their designs, present ideas confidently, and demonstrate design leadership day to day. This program is effective if you are totally committed to geeking-out over design details and pushing yourself to the next level.
A one-hour session every other week for six weeks and unlimited Slack support.
WHEN YOU'VE TRIED EVERYTHING ELSE
You've read books. You've attended conferences. You may even have taken online courses. All those are good, but they'll only take you so far down the road.
Real growth takes an experienced mentor to help you in real time. I work with you to identify your design gaps and give you practical ways to level up and lead on purpose.
The Program
I spent years in all there roles: Solo Designer, Lead Designer, Product Design Lead, and Design Team Manager. In the end, no matter the position, I had the platform to lead through my design habits and practices. Through these sessions, we’ll take my experience and apply it to your situation.
We’ll cover topics such as:
Learn to transform vague goals into a purpose-driven understanding of what you’re supposed to design.
Take back the reigns of stakeholders directing design decisions and lead them through an outcome-based way of approving designs.
Design doesn’t seem to “fit” in Agile, but it does! Whether your product team is truly Agile or “Agile in Name Only” you can benefit from the mindset and drive designs forward.
Whether you have actual screens or concepts to review, or want to talk through the future of design in technology, we’ll have a blast exploring new ideas.
These sessions will be particularly useful to Product Designers who are in companies where their design efforts seem underutilized, and who want to make an impact on their product or company but don’t know where to begin.
I work directly with you directly in each session. Unlike self-paced courses, this is direct and custom guidance tailored for your situation.
We’ll look at what you’re working on, what your challenges are, and actionable steps you can practice between sessions.
You have a day-job, but these regular touch points keep momentum between what you’re facing and tactics you can try employ immediately.
Have a one-off question or need a quick review? Ask it in your private Slack Channel. I’ll respond within 1–2 business days.
“His willingness to mentor others and grow team culture while executing ever evolving design projects showcases his professionalism and commitment to delivering the best possible outcomes.”
“He is always patient, he encourages me to try new things and take risks with my designs—that is invaluable to me. His structure for personal development and goal-setting accelerated my early career.”
“He helps improve my process, my critiquing skills, and served as a mentor to help my achieve my individual and team goals. All with a contagiously enthusiastic personality!”
My coaching is premium. Maybe more than you've spent on professional development.
Yet, trying to navigate product design techniques by trial and error is not only a random approach but can also be disheartening after awhile.
Each month that goes by is another opportunity you could be applying purposeful and reliable skills that you can practice with personal guidance.
Or, you can pay monthly at $700 a month.
Between sessions, you’ll have direct access to me via a private Slack channel. You can reach out as often you need to for questions, updates, or feedback. I'll respond within 1-2 business days. This allows me to give you my full attention.
The program is designed to meet six times over three months. You can reschedule upcoming sessions should something come up. However, sessions can’t be carried beyond three months, and sessions not scheduled by the end of the three months will expire. If I take time off, I’ll let you know those dates in advance and my calendar availability will be updated.
Many people find they want to continue the momentum they gain from the previous sessions. So, you can sign up for another three months.
No, since this is a collaborative activity. It takes both of us to make this work. The investment you make up front is more than money, it’s time and commitment to apply and practice.
Before you commit to the program, set up a free call. We’ll talk about your current challenges and I’ll let you know if I can help you. Check out the details below on how to get in touch.
Ooh, that would be great, but I can’t (and be wary of anyone who says they can). This is a dynamic program that relies on your performance to move the needle. I can guarantee I’ll be prepared, present, and giving you my best each and every time we meet. I’m cheering you all the way!
