What KLD is
I teach leadership, and I teach how to build delightful products at scale.
KLD is the name for the system I’ve built from 35 years of doing it: mechanisms, mental models, artifacts, and practice. The goal is people who get better at leading on purpose.
Success is practitioners. People who use KLD, improve it, and pass what works to others.
KLD manifests as me being a coach and mentor, in-person training, useful reading on my blog, and apps that help you get things done.
One-on-one and team coaching
I coach leaders and teams to get better at leading on purpose.
Bring a real problem to my office hours. Thirty minutes. No commitment required. We will make the problem sharper and figure out what layer needs work first. More than half of my coaching time is pro bono because this is how I give back.
Training
I train leaders and teams in person, on the real problem.
Every engagement is custom. I do not show up with a two-day script. I start with a few leaders long enough to see how the org actually works, then we train the team with the current handbook: tenets, mechanisms, hiring, product judgment, and whatever the next hard problem forces onto the page.
From the blog
Most of what I teach started as posts on my blog.
These are the ones people ask for, and the ones that keep showing up in the training.
Apps for getting stuff done
I wrote these apps to accelerate what I teach.
Each app packages a piece of KLD so you can use it without me in the room.
