Scaling a startup is one of the most demanding challenges a leader can face. While product-market fit and capital are critical, the CEO’s leadership skill set often determines whether a company thrives or stalls.  At Tech CEO Coach , we work with founders to identify, sharpen, and deploy the skills that drive sustainable growth. From leadership development to executive presence, decision-making, and fostering psychological safety, mastering these abilities ensures both person

If you’re a growth-stage technology founder or executive, you already know how fast the landscape shifts—and how lonely leadership can feel. That’s why many leaders turn to professional CEO coaching for guidance, accountability, and strategic perspective. But before investing, most ask the same question:  - “What does a year long coaching engagement look like?”   At Tech CEO Coach , the flagship 12-month coaching program is designed specifically for scaling leaders with busin

When evaluating prospective clients, Tech CEO Coach doesn’t just look at a company’s traction or market potential. Instead, the focus starts with the founder. One of the most important markers of success in coaching programs is whether a founder is both hungry and humble.  But what does it really mean to meet the hungry and humble CEO coach requirement? And why does it matter for your eligibility and outcomes in executive coaching?  In this guide, we’ll break down the mindset

n today’s fast-moving leadership landscape, it’s easy to fall into the trap of quick fixes, free webinars, self-paced online classes, and video courses that promise to unlock your potential in just a few days. But experienced leaders know that transformation doesn’t happen on a tight schedule or through one-size-fits-all programs. If you're asking, “Why choose personalized CEO coaching?”, you’re already on the right path. The answer lies in the tailored, relationship-based po

But more and more, entrepreneurs are beginning to ask: Is it really worth it if I burn out along the way?  This is where CEO and executive coaching come into play, not as a luxury, but as a strategic necessity. Startup founders who want to build sustainable, scalable companies without losing their health, relatio

I recently had 18 leaders leave work for one to two days to focus on their self-awareness and leadership   skills in my CEO Collective course in Utah.  We had people fly in from multiple states and join the local business owners for training (and the title “Collective” was chosen because I knew the outcome would be better with their input on the topics we would discuss).  I usually do one-on-one CEO bootcamps, but this time, I gathered all of the leaders in a team environment

In the world of innovation, disruption, and startup agility, the expectations placed on tech CEOs are monumental. They’re expected to be visionaries, problem-solvers, fundraisers, team-builders, and culture-shapers, all while navigating uncertainty, investor pressure, and personal burnout. Yet, despite their ambition and drive, many tech founders and executives operate far beneath their full leadership capacity. Why do CEOs play beneath their potential, even when they appear

The life of a tech CEO is relentless—fast decisions, high stakes, constant pressure, and limited room for error. While the startup ecosystem often glorifies founders for being self-made visionaries, the reality is far less glamorous. Behind every high-performing founder or scaling tech leader, there's usually a strategic support system—often in the form of an expert CEO coach.
