Leadership Development for Tech Companies

Elevate Leadership helps everyone level up, from first-time managers to seasoned executives. We've helped technology leaders at all levels navigate the unique challenges of building, scaling, and leading in tech, resulting in higher performing teams.

Building Leaders at the World’s Top Technology Organizations

Great technology companies are built through great leaders. At every level, from new managers to VPs of Engineering, the ability to develop people, align teams, and make smart decisions under pressure separates the companies that thrive from those that plateau.

At Elevate, we deeply care about training leaders to drive these high performing teams. We’ve partnered with some of the largest names in tech to help leaders at all levels:

  • Build confidence to lead technical teams and drive results from day one
  • Develop communication skills that bridge the gap between technical and business stakeholders
  • Create frameworks for making smart decisions when timelines are tight and information is incomplete
  • Master the art of attracting, developing, and retaining top talent
  • Foster team alignment across engineering, product, design, and business functions
  • Apply science-backed leadership tools designed specifically for high-velocity tech environments

Our approach is built around our "Leadership Intelligence" framework — essential skills leaders need to thrive in today's fast-moving, ever-shifting workplace. Rather than offering standalone training sessions, we act as an extension of your People or L&D team, delivering an integrated program of 1:1 or group coaching, team workshops, embedded learning, and custom programs that can be mixed or matched to drive true change.

We understand that tech leaders operate in fast-paced environments with competing priorities. That's why we custom design each of our engagements to maximize learning efficiency while fitting busy schedules. We deliver training in the format that works best for your team.

Level up your leadership skills

"I found the training has helped me with my goal of building new relationships across the company and giving me more situational tools to use in my conversations with my direct reports and their teams. Some of my peers have noticed that my direct reports take more ownership and are more engaged and it's led to many conversations about how to take a coaching approach to management and collaboration."
Nick Popoff, 

Director of Engineering at Eventbrite
“I've worked with other coaching and management training companies in the past and they've often provided solutions that are good, but feel fairly generic and not personalized to our company. The Elevate team has really taken the time to get to know me, the company, our managers, and then translated that knowledge into programming and an approach that really feels like it's super tailored to our needs.”
Theresa Vermeersch,

VP of People at Unlearn.AI
"Thanks to Elevate Academy, we’ve collectively been able to navigate changes in our organization and help uplevel a lot of our people management skills. And, most importantly as Leaders, really show up with a consistent internal brand.”
Kristen Hayward, 

SVP of People and Operations at Superhuman
“I found the Elevate leadership team to be extremely hands on and willing to dive deep. From spending hours with managers across the company to learning about our needs, to connecting with them on the day of the training and helping to foster community. They make suggestions and also take feedback so well. If something wasn't working in prep or even on the day of the training and could be improved, their team went with the flow and helped drive a new direction to meet what we needed at Anthropic.”
Jackie Opritza, 

Head of People Partners & Manager Enablement at Anthropic
