I really enjoyed Tam's coaching sessions. After the CV review I got invited to more interviews, and he gave me clear areas to improve on from our mock interview sessions. I would highly recommend Tam's coaching.

Coaching with Tam

Why coaching?

Being a Product Manager can be super hard at times. The role comes with a lot of responsibility, as well as plenty of ambiguity and high expectations. Which means it's very common to feel stuck, uncertain of how to improve, or trapped being endlessly busy.

Coaching from someone who's been there and done that can be a great way to reset, reflect, and refresh your approach to your role and your career.

Why work with me?

I worked for 10 years as a Product Manager and Leader in startups, both in London and in global remote teams. Through those experiences I've seen almost every situation you can get into as a PM.

From scrambling to find product/market fit, to hiring and scaling your own high performing team.

From struggling to understand customers' needs, to scaling meaningful product experiences into profitable businesses.

From struggling to align with your manager and C-suite, to defining ambitious product strategy for multiple teams and global expansion.

My experience means I'm especially good at helping people in these situations:

  • You're part of, or are leading, an early Product department
  • You're at an early stage startup or scale up (Seed to Series B)
  • Your business is looking for product/market fit, or you're scaling for the first time
  • You want to confidently shape a great team and to be a great manager to them
  • You want to increase your team's performance and ambitions
  • You want an extra push to reach your potential as a PM

How coaching sessions work

Coaching with me will start by understanding you and your context. Your strengths and weaknesses. Your personal goals and motivations. With that we will agree on one or two areas to focus on together first.

Calls are one hour and scheduled when you need them. Usually one call every 2 weeks. We set the agenda together in a shared document so we're always working on what matters most to you.

During sessions I'll use a combination of active listening, questions, and prompts to help you think through your challenges and come up with solutions. I'll also share my own experiences and frameworks to help you learn faster.

Each session ends with clear actions - mainly for you but sometimes for me too - and if you need help between calls I am available on email and loom async.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A free intro call with me is a casual chat to hear more about you, your context, and what you hope to get out of coaching. It's a no obligation way to see if we both think we'll work well together. I'll also explain how I like to work in terms of coaching, scheduling, and staying in touch between calls.

  • I can certainly help you improve your chances of getting a new job, but I can't guarantee you a job. Everyone I've worked with has been invited to more interviews, felt more confident in their interviews, and landed a new job after working with me. But you need to put in the work as I can't force anyone to hire you.
