Ready to Land (cohort)
For experienced leaders who know what they want next - and are ready to land it.
You've made a clear call about your next move.
Maybe it's:
-
A specific role at a specific type of company
-
First people leadership
-
Bigger scope or different function
-
Leaving Big Tech for the right opportunity
Whatever it is, you're not questioning the direction. You're questioning: how do I make this happen?
You know what you're capable of. You just need to show up in a way that gets you hired for what you actually want — not under-leveled, not misread, not offered the wrong thing.
Ready to Land is execution work for people who've already made the decision.
You're tired of:
-
Sending strong applications into the void
-
Getting "not quite ready" feedback when you know you can do the work
-
Watching your effort disappear without traction
This is a fit if:
-
You've made a clear directional call — you know what you're aiming for, even if not the exact company
-
You're ready to move in the next 3–6 months
-
Your experience is strong but isn't landing at the right level externally — you're being misread or under-leveled
-
You want structure and accountability
Next cohort
Cohorts are intentionally small. Participation is confirmed via a clarity call to ensure fit and readiness.
How the program works
Ready to Land is a 6-week sprint designed to turn a clear decision into visible momentum.
You'll:
-
Align how you show up with the level you're targeting
-
Position your Big Tech experience for external markets
-
Build systems for outreach and follow-through
-
Sharpen interview strategy and offer evaluation
-
Stop spreading effort across roles you don't actually want

“Once I started applying for jobs using her guidance, I received ~25% response rate from recruiters wanting to talk — unheard of in the current market.
Within 6 weeks, I accepted an offer for a product manager role at an amazing company.”
— Holly, Product Leader

“Through her structured approach and cohort-based coaching I was able to get clarity not only on those questions but also how my values and personal goals play into my short-to-medium-to-long term plans.
Her small group coaching was the right mix of individualized attention and group calls that allowed me to get different perspectives, stay accountable, and make progress.
Especially if you are someone working in big tech, Mel just gets it.”
— Sheelu, Product Marketing Leader
