“Mat has a lot of expertise about product and development strategy - even going so far as to show me mockups of frameworks he’s put together to illustrate his points.
I got a ton out of this session - it’s inspiring to see someone who cares and excels at their craft!”

FAQ
What can I expect in a coaching session?
Each session will probably be a little different, but in a typical coaching session we will talk about your specific goals and then work on the customized plan of action to achieve them. For example, we might talk about the current challenges you are experiencing as a product leader, or best practices for the team to conduct and share product discovery.
Ultimately the time is yours. You will walk through the situation and we will work together to address it in the best possible way!
Can I expense 1:1 coaching through work?
Yes, absolutely! If you need a little help pitching it, you can use a simple template I put together to request approval from your manager.
Is 1:1 coaching right for me?
I’ve coached leaders and teams from a wide range of industries, all around the world. Sessions have ranged from people wanting to get into product all the way to CEO’s of product organizations looking to move away from feature factories.
Most people who find value in one on one coaching are typically:
In the 0 - 1 product space and need to quickly reduce risk, skip the learning curve, and accelerate achieving PMF
Facing a new challenge in creating or fostering a high performing product team
Looking to build confidence in their new product leadership role
Wanting to grow in a specific skill like product operations, design thinking, or lean development methodologies
Wanting to bounce ideas off of someone that has been there and done that
Looking to take the next major step in their career
The number one reason why 1:1 coaching might not be right for you:
You are looking for someone to do the work for you. Those are contractors, I am a professional development coach specialized in giving you context specific tools, techniques, and methodologies that will create and foster success.
Although I have years of actual, hands-on experience and could probably do the work, my coaching focus is providing professional development that helps you and the team level up and deliver better products faster.
Still not sure if having a coach and mentor is right for you?
I totally get it. If I never had the experience of a coach dedicated to helping me succeed, I’d be skeptical too. That’s why I offer a free coaching session! Share your goals with me and together we’ll come up with a coaching and mentoring plan tailored to your specific needs.
In fact, if you don’t experience any value within our first 30 minute interaction, then I’m not the right coach for you. At the very least, you’ll walk away knowing I’ll always be a resource when you’re ready!
