I’m Tig Kindel, and I offer Free & Open Office Hours to anyone who wants to talk—about leadership, tech, or even classic cars. Free means I expect nothing in return and Open means for anyone.
I do this to give back and because I love helping leaders grow. It’s a taste of what I do at Kindel Leadership Development, where I coach leaders to scale success and deliver results.
Tenets
- Make It Yours: Use me without hesitation—30 years building and running the teams that built Windows, Alexa, and more give me plenty to share.
- Come Prepared: Bring your topics; skim blog.kindel.com first for my tools and mental models to max out our time.
- Confidential: What we discuss stays between us—think of me as your leadership sounding board.
- Real Talk, Not Therapy: No topic’s off-limits, but if it’s deep, I’ll nudge you toward a therapist—I’m here to coach, not counsel.
Tig is one of the clearest business thinkers and leaders I’ve ever worked with. He’s giving back with half-hour coaching sessions at no cost. Highly recommend.

What to Expect
Office hours are your chance to tap my experience—think clarity on a challenge, a tool to boost your team, or a fresh take on your career. Examples:
- Sharpen your tenets or plans.
- Apply Amazon’s leadership principles to your role.
- Navigate team conflict or career moves.
- Or just vent—I’ll listen, then help you think more clearly.
I give back because I love seeing leaders grow. Book as many sessions as you’d like, and if it clicks, let’s explore how I can help you or your org scale up.
