Not sure where to start?
Most organizations don’t come in knowing exactly which engagement they need. That’s normal. This guide helps you identify the right starting point based on your current challenges.
There is no “best” option. There is only what fits right now.
Start with the statement that feels closest to your current situation.
Do you already have strong alignment on priorities and ownership?
What kind of support would be most helpful right now?
Both options are available to Engineering Managers and other leaders (including Sr. ICs). The difference is not your title, but the type of support you’re looking for right now.
A quick note on fit
Not every situation requires consulting support. Not every engagement leads to another. In some cases, the best outcome of this process is clarity and confidence that you can move forward without additional help. That’s a valid and successful outcome.
