Why Leadership Is Harder Now
Most leaders are unprepared for this new environment
AI handles large portions of your job now, including analyzing data, automating workflows, and drafting reports. The technical parts of leadership are being automated. What remains is the human work, and most leaders were never trained for it.
75% of HR leaders say managers' responsibilities are outpacing their development, and 69% believe leaders are ill-equipped to lead change.

What leaders say after coaching
“I had the great pleasure of working with Coop last year. He’s a true master of human communication. His easy-going style and techniques make it easy to discuss and unravel complicated situations. Coop is great at advising through political situations and helping you “lean in” to push forward. ”

Ashraf Karim
VP Product Management, PayPal
“Coop is an exceptional leadership coach, mentor and business partner. We’ve worked together for many years and I look forward to many more. His ability to connect with people sets him apart in the leadership coaching area. If you’re looking for 1:1 coaching or a group type setting, Coop’s your person!”

Jennifer Esposito
Vice President of People & Culture, Trumark Homes
“I had the good fortune of working with Coop at multiple companies and I found him to be a really valuable resource for me and our team. Not only does he bring some solid frameworks but he has the unique ability to inspire positive change and flex the muscles needed to achieve growth. I highly recommend him.”
