Engineering Leadership Coaching Scholarships

15 coaching scholarships for engineering leaders from groups that are underrepresented in technology

Coaching is a powerful way to develop your skills, and advance in your career. Our clients typically find that coaching brings them greater clarity, confidence and control in their professional lives.

We — Joel Chippindale, Alex Martynov, Amy Rich, Eric Nehrlich, Fiona Siseman, Francis Lacoste and Tobi Tonner — are a group of professional coaches who are committed to offering free coaching programmes each year to engineering leaders who identify as being from a group that is underrepresented in technology and may not be able to afford coaching yet.

The coaching programmes that we offer are designed to help you achieve your goals. They will support you to better understand yourself and your situation, challenge self limiting beliefs that you may be holding, explore the possibilities that you have for change and commit to making changes.
