Stop Solving the Wrong Problems Brilliantly.
A short introduction from Paul,
coming soon.
The problems you choose to solve define the career you build. The system you build around them is what keeps it moving.
Coaching for leaders who choose their impact. By coaches still in the game.
Even the best leaders drift. Rarely because they stop caring. It’s because the daily grind creeps in, one roadmap deliverable at a time, one transactional relationship at a time.
Slowly, the work stops feeling like yours.
You stop being the architect and start being the administrator of other people’s priorities.
Change won’t happen on its own. Every time your career has moved, it was because you made a choice. Even when it was difficult. Even when it didn’t feel like it was yours to make.
If you’re here, you’re ready to get honest, get clear, and start moving.
“If you had no constraints, what would you be building right now?”
If it’s not what you’re building today, you might be where I was: doing great work on the wrong things.
I learned the hard way that being indispensable wasn’t an asset. It was a ceiling.
I looked for coaching to help me progress and found frameworks that were smart, but borrowed. Written for someone else’s career, not mine. My best learning didn’t come from a book. It came from proving Director-level impact at Amazon under real scrutiny, and building teams where no roadmap existed.
I founded Glass Elevator because I wished it had existed: coaching rooted in the real world, not a generic framework. It’s why every coach here is still doing the job.
Your system around the problems that matter. Impact that compounds.
“I wanted to sharpen my communication with the board. Turns out it was perspective. Once I started connecting my team’s work to what the board actually cared about, I ended up rewriting my entire department strategy.”
