A 4 week live cohort for newly promoted/hired managers in tech and product development who want to lead effectively without losing themselves, their team, or their sanity.👉 Move from “I hope I’m doing this right” to “I’ve got this.”👉 Gain the frameworks, scripts, and confidence every new tech leader needs.Stepping into your first leadership role is one of the most challenging transitions in a tech career.Yesterday you were a colleague.Today you’re expected to run 1:1s, give feedback, manage delivery, handle conflict, motivate people, and influence stakeholders and much more.Most new managers are thrown into leadership with zero training or training that is not relevant and leave them with more questions than answers.This course gives you what you should have received on day one: a practica, battle-tested toolkit for leading in modern tech environments, taught through hands-on workshops, real scenarios, and live coaching.The Promise: By the end of the cohort, you’ll have a clear, repeatable system for leading "former" peers, running confident 1:1s, giving feedback without tension, and delivering results through others.

Move from colleague → leader with confidence, clarity, and proven tools.

Transition smoothly from peer → leader without damaging trust

Communicate confidently upward, downward, and cross‑functionally

Run effective 1:1s that actually uncover problems and build trust

Delegate and prioritize without feeling guilty or overwhelmed

Give feedback using SBI, CEDAR, and conflict‑safe scripts

Build psychological safety while maintaining accountability

Newly promoted tech leads, engineering managers, product managers, UX leads, and cross‑functional team leads

People who suddenly find themselves managing former peers

Anyone who has ever felt: “How do I give feedback to someone I used to sit next to?”

Stop losing deals because your product team doesn't know what healthcare buyers need to see. Build the evidence that gets contracts signed.

You built something that works. A pharma, clinic, CRO, or payer ran a pilot. The champion loved it. Then everything went quiet.Most founders assume this is a sales problem. It's not. It's a product problem.The buyer can't explain what you do internally. The documents procurement needs don't exist. The pilot proved the product works but didn't produce the evidence anyone needs to justify a contract.This course covers the product-side work that makes healthcare deals closeable. Over three weeks (6 live sessions, Mon/Wed), you'll work on your actual company and your actual deals, building the positioning, documentation, and evidence that pharmaceutical companies, clinics, CROs, health systems, and payers need to see before they sign.This is not a sales methodology course. No pipeline frameworks, no closing techniques. It's built from 18 years on the product and operations side of healthtech, watching good products fail to get bought because nobody on the product team understood what the buyer actually needed to see.

Great pilot. No contract. That's not a sales problem.

Your buyer can explain what you do without calling you

Your stalled deal has a clear path forward

Your product team owns the documents buyers actually need.

Structure pilots that lead to contracts, not just good results

Know whether this deal is worth your team's next 90 days

Not an idea, not a prototypesomething that works

You have a Product

Healthtech founders who've built a working product and can't figure out why buyers won't sign after a successful pilot.

Product and technical leaders at healthtech companies who are being pulled into sales and feel out of their depth on the commercial side.

Operators at early-stage healthtech companies who've need to build the product-side evidence that actually closes deals.
