Scale your company, team, and yourself through coaching

I am passionate about helping the most ambitious and talented founders through coaching. Whether you're pre or post product market fit, I help leaders and teams level up, create a strong foundation, and identify ways to scale.

Coaching for Early Stage Founders

This is the moment when your foundation will either make or break your company. Together, we will work on the fundamental building blocks of relentlessly tunnel-visioning towards Product-Market Fit, hiring the right people and firing the wrong ones fast, and setting up scaffolding for “good-enough” structure where you can still move fast without breaking too many things.

Coaching for Growth & Late Stage Founders

You've gotten insane traction, your customers love you, and you’re growing crazy fast. It’s time for your 1 → 100 partner. We’ll work on how you can eliminate the silos of information inside and between your leadership teams and across departments, manage your investors and board, and learn how to build your next products while still growing the existing one to create your moat.

Offsite Planning & Facilitation

At every stage of company building, your team will make or break your company. The best founders leverage offsites to build better relationships with their leadership teams and reach crystal-clear alignment, and they recognize that conflict resolutions must happen frequently to quash any drama in the leadership team.To do this, you need an expert in human emotion and psyche to come in and help with facilitation. This is how we work together.

FAQs

Why do I need a coach?

If you’re a CEO or part of the Executive Leadership Team, many people report to you. Theoretically, they perform better because of it. But you likely report to no one — or, you feel like there isn’t anyone that can serve as your true thought partner with your best interest in mind.

When you work with a coach like me, I become your thought partner and have your best interest in mind. I will simultaneously encourage you while challenging your assumptions and thoughts when appropriate. I offer a safe place for you to tell me how you really feel about your company and team with zero fear of backlash. And finally, I give you no-BS, tactical advice that is immediately applicable.

What is the fee and what is included?

My monthly retainer is either $7k for scaling startups (Series B or higher), or $5k for early stage startups (pre-seed to Series A). I offer payment deferral on a case-by-case basis where it makes sense.

You get a three-session money-back guarantee. If at any point during the first three sessions you find that we don't create enough value to continue, I give you all your money back. No one has ever taken me up on this. I don't intend for you to be the first.

One founder who later went on to become extremely successful gifted me 1% of his company after just one session, based on the value we created together. No, he was not flippant about equity. Yes, he found parting with equity as painful as you do. That's how well coaching with me works.

I meet with you an unlimited number of times. Most people want me to meet with them once every two weeks - it's up to you. The retainer stays the same, no matter what.

I do preferred group pricing for coaching 1-1 with multiple execs or founders.

The retainer fee also means you can reach out to me any time via email or text, and I always have an insanely fast response time. I purposefully remain selective of how many coachees I take on, so that I can offer this flexibility and availability to my founders and leaders.

What do you teach?

Having sat in every coaching session Matt Mochary did as his first Chief of Staff, a lot of what I teach is based on the experiments and lessons many founders before you have tried and learned. I maintain my own mental repository of every issue that has ever been discussed, what techniques were tried, what failed, and what succeeded. If you've ever wished for a Stack Overflow for how to run a company, it exists and lives in my brain.

I take that information and apply it to your situation. I'll share with you stories you'll never find on LinkedIn and X, situations that the best management consulting firms in the world wish they knew, and teach you how to apply those situations to your situation. I apply all of this knowledge in the line of questioning I present you with during our sessions together.

Many of the concepts I teach are captured in the Mochary Method Curriculum. Please feel free to use it with your team.  It is open-sourced.

I also draw on a lot of techniques from Conscious Leadership Group by Diana Chapman and Jim Dethmer. For more information, please read The 15 Commitments, found here.

For anything not captured/co-authored in the Curriculum link above, I enjoy documenting tactical advice and open sourcing operational, free Notion templates here and here.

Finally, I’m always discovering new write-ups to create through my time working with ambitious founders. My tactical advice page is ever-evolving with write-ups, posts, and templates you can use with your team. All of it is open-sourced.

I love hearing from people who are interested in connecting with me! Please use this form if you’d like to contact me about working together in a coaching capacity.

In order to do my best work and be fully attentive to each person I work with, I only take a maximum of ten coachees at a time.

As a result, I am particularly selective with who I choose to work with.

You and I will be a great fit if…

  • You are the leader of your startup, or a part of the executive leadership team
  • You are interested in learning how to be an excellent, top-tier operator
  • Your company is a top performer in its class - some signals include being funded by top-tier investors, or you’re bootstrapped but cashflow positive and growing quickly

If this sounds like you, let’s meet and see if we’re a mutual fit. Even if we don’t work together, I have a list of coaches I admire and respect who I happily make referrals to all the time.
