Most managers never learn how to actually run meetings. Yet meetings are the single most important perception tool you have at work.
“This will literally change people’s lives at work.”

Hi, I’m Ryan. I help managers.
I’ve spent two decades obsessing about the way work happens.
It’s incredible to me how little most of us are taught about how to manage. If you’re like me, you were thrown into management without training and just had to figure things out. That can be stressful and lonely.
Now I’ve successfully led over a dozen teams (from just a couple of people up to 80+) and been sought out to advise executives who have managed over 1000 people.
I’ve read everything I could find to help me be a better manager and learned through experimenting and adjusting when I made mistakes.
Now I teach managers the things about work that are rarely taught.
I’ve coached hundreds of managers at top companies like LinkedIn, Google, DoorDash, Disney, and Capital Group.
I believe great managers are the most important factor not only in delivering better business results but also in making people’s lives better in the process.
