Did you know that right now, it’s possible for you to upgrade your tech career and command a premium salary of at least $200k/year without sacrificing your work-life balance or your integrity as a servant leader?

I’ll explain how in just a second.

But first, let’s talk about why so many tech managers think this is impossible.

The truth is that you’ve been LET DOWN.

Let down by so many well-meaning humans who want you to believe that putting a laser focus on your WORK is the key to upgrading your CAREER.

And on the surface, I get it. It sounds good!

Work hard every day. Add value. Get shit done. Lead your team.

And your career will take care of itself.

But let me come right out and say it: This plan is wildly RISKY!

Here’s why:

Putting a laser focus on your WORK means you’re going to ignore the big picture of what you want in your CAREER.

Working hard and getting shit done is all well and good, but if it’s not directed towards a larger purpose, then why are you doing it???

Leading is important. I want you to lead. But you need to lead YOURSELF first!

So the biggest reason of all that putting a laser focus on WORK is a wildly risky career strategy is that you’re leaving your career outcomes to CHANCE!

You’re rolling the dice with your career.

This means that all of the components of your career machine — your financial stability, your inner confidence, your family’s future, your ability to make an impact, your personal well-being…

…are being spun like a roulette wheel.

You’re crossing your fingers, hoping it’ll land on a winner!

Look, I love to play games of chance from time to time. It’s thrilling.

But if you’re anything like me, you will NOT play a casino game with your CAREER!

So, what’s the better way to upgrade your tech career?

Plain and simple: Stop putting that laser focus on your WORK and start putting it on your CAREER!

Zoom out, my friend!

Here’s why this is BRILLIANT:

Putting a laser focus on your CAREER means you’re zeroing in on the big picture and you create a crystal clear career mission.

You now know you WHY! You’re a human on a mission and you’re able to connect to that purpose every day. This puts you more in flow and everything feels easier!

You’re clear what YOU want and that helps you lead others from an even more powerful, confident place.

And the best part is you’re no longer leaving your career to chance. You’ve built rock-solid systems and strategies to leverage your career machine!

And that’s what’s going to enable you to build your dream tech career without throwing any money or time into the shredder.

Do you see how powerful that is?

Here’s the thing, though: no one else is teaching this. And the ones that are, don’t really understand it. Or, they’re not bold enough to coach this way.
