Build Modern Leadership with People Intelligence.
The Top Tech Leader Method delivers a proven path to escape burnout, inspire your team, and build a thriving leadership career.
Stress in leadership feels different.
Â
It’s not the kind you can debug through with an all-nighter.
It’s the kind that lingers.
The weight of knowing that every decision you make, every meeting you run, every word you say—it all ripples out to your team.
And it doesn’t stay at work.
It follows you home.
It sits with you at dinner.
It sneaks into your sleep.
And somewhere in the chaos, a little voice whispers:
"Am I doing enough? Am I even cut out for this?"
This isn’t the stress of working harder.
It’s the stress of not knowing how to lead properly.
Â
The gap nobody talks about.
Â
Leadership isn’t just about managing tasks or projects.
It’s about navigating people, relationships, and influence.
The gap between being a high-performing individual contributor and becoming a confident, clear-headed leader is bigger than most people think.
It’s a completely new skill set:
- Influencing up: gaining trust from executives and peers.
- Building trust: motivating experienced team members and cultivating ownership.
- Managing relationships: aligning with your manager and fostering a healthy team culture.
Most leadership advice sounds simple:
Set a vision → Align your team → Deliver results.
But nobody tells you how to bridge the gap between what you know and the leader you want to become.
That’s where most leaders feel stuck.
