I work with a maximum of 10 leaders at any time to ensure same-day response for crisis situations and the deep attention grief coaching requires.
When personal loss meets leadership responsibility, you need specialized support that understands both the human psychology of grief and the unique pressures of tech leadership.
When someone on your team experiences significant loss or change—whether from bereavement, divorce, illness, or major life transition—you're suddenly responsible for supporting them through their most vulnerable moment while maintaining team performance.
Most product leaders handle this through instinct. You adjust work, say what feels right, and hope it's enough.
But grief creates measurable cognitive impairment lasting 6-12 months: compromised decision-making, reduced processing speed, and decision fatigue hitting 40% faster than normal. Without systematic frameworks for supporting people through this, well-intentioned efforts often make things worse.
Executive coaching develops the systematic skills you need not just for this situation, but for the multiple loss and change situations you'll face throughout your leadership career.
These coaching programs focus on building systematic capabilities for leading when team members face loss and change:
Support team members through various personal crises effectively
Maintain team performance during disruption
Navigate stakeholder communication about capacity changes
Build resilient team structures before crises hit
Prevent your own compassion fatigue and burnout
The skills we build together serve you for the rest of your career—not just during this immediate challenge.
For product leaders who need to support team members through grief and other personal crises while maintaining team performance.
This isn't just about grief—it's about developing the leadership capabilities for any crisis that affects your team:
Support team members through various personal crises effectively
Maintain team performance during disruption
Navigate stakeholder communication about capacity changes
Build resilient team structures before crises hit
Prevent your own compassion fatigue and burnout

For product leaders and team members experiencing normal grief who need to maintain their effectiveness while accelerating their recovery.
Normal grief recovery takes 12-18 months. With professional grief counseling, that timeline shortens to 6-9 months while you maintain leadership effectiveness throughout.
This specialized support addresses the specific challenge of leading (or performing) effectively during recovery:
Recognize when judgment may be compromised and implement appropriate safeguards
Adjust delegation and decision-making during reduced cognitive capacity
Communicate about capacity changes without losing credibility
Maintain leadership presence while creating space for recovery
Design sustainable work approaches that support both performance and healing
Accelerate recovery timeline through systematic grief counseling techniques
Important: This coaching is for normal grief only. About 7-10% of people develop complicated grief requiring clinical therapy. The email course covers warning signs that indicate when therapy rather than coaching is needed.

Not sure which program fits your situation? Schedule a 15-minute conversation to discuss what you're facing and determine the right kind of support.
This isn't a sales call. It's an honest assessment of whether coaching would help, which program makes sense, or whether other resources (including the free email course on supporting colleagues through grief, or therapy referrals for complicated grief) would serve you better.
Or email me directly at [email protected] to discuss your specific situation.
