Cut through the noise
Leadership and soft skills aren't only hard to master; they're hard to agree on. The industry is full of jargon and fluff. Without smart guidance, it's no wonder most poor managers resort to managing like hard-asses. And worse, it's no wonder why 'having a bad manager' is the number one reason people quit.
But don't worry, we've got you covered. We've distilled the latest research and practical advice into clear methods so you can lead smarter, not harder.
- Outcome focused.
- Your goal isn't Marketing, it's to aquire new customers. We don't teach abitrary concepts, we focus on practical outcomes like "negoitating a raise".

... using proven skills
“Finally some advice which makes sense! There's just far too many opinions out there, I don't have time to sift through it all to work out what's right for me. This gets straight to it, so I can get to being productive.”
“Everything I've learnt about management has been on the job. I've made plenty of mistakes which have affected real people. Being able to test my gaps and practice in a sandbox feels so empowering.”
Hone your unique voice
We've tuned hundreds of AI partners / guinea pigs for you to practice these frameworks and methods on.

- Prepare for big conversations
-
Some conversations are too important to wing it. Here, you can try out with a virtual partner not only how a message might land, but also what questions might get asked. Allowing you to feel confident you're not left exposed.
- Get tactical advice
-
This library of partners can also help you answer questions and use frameworks which might be great in principle, but extremely hard to put into practice. Such as crafting OKRs into something that's meaningful.
For everyone,
not just managers
