​Sometimes in our work lives we feel stuck — perhaps you're navigating a transition, dealing with a complicated working environment, or struggling with your own mindset and approach to your job. Leadership coaching is a tool to un-stick.

​Rachel Peck — an executive coach with more than a decade of experience working in and with high growth tech companies — will lead you through this 60 minute interactive session focused on how to manage your manager.

​Over the course of this interactive session, Rachel will spot-coach attendees, while offering some of her favorite frameworks, tools, and resources to address the challenges you're facing.

​Hear two expert career coaches briefly discuss the latest job market trends and what they mean for your career. After the chat, stick around for a Q&A where you can ask your burning questions and get personalized advice on your most urgent career needs.

​Whether you're looking to negotiate a raise, make a career pivot, or level up your skills, this session can be tailored to your priorities. Bring your questions, and let’s tackle them together!
