At Kapadia Coaching,
we specialize in transforming technically brilliant managers
into Strategic Technical Leaders
through our flagship program: The Authority Amplifier for Tech Managers™.
The Authority Amplifier for Tech Managers™
A specialized 6-month coaching program designed for mid-level technical managers who need to step into strategic authority, cross-functional influence, and executive presence.
Why This Program Exists
Most leadership programs fail technical managers because they don’t address the technical-to-strategic leadership gap. Managers get promoted for technical expertise, but struggle when faced with:
Influencing across functions without formal authority
Representing technical perspectives with confidence in executive meetings
Explaining complex decisions in business terms
The Authority Amplifier™ bridges this gap giving your managers the ability to lead with clarity, independence, and measurable impact.
What’s Included in the Program
1. Leadership Circle Profile™ 360 Assessment
A powerful assessment and debrief that identifies the exact behaviors holding managers back from strategic leadership effectiveness.
2. Biweekly 1:1 Coaching
Six months of private coaching tailored to real-time challenges, ensuring that new skills are immediately applied in business contexts.
3. Strategic Technical Leadership Frameworks & Tools
Proprietary frameworks that simplify how managers:
Translate technical work into business-ready decisions
Navigate conflicts and build cross-functional alignment
Show up with executive presence in senior-level discussions
4. Real-Time Support
Access to Slack/email support so managers can apply new skills to pressing challenges and get immediate feedback when it matters most.
5. Progress Tracking & Sponsor Check-Ins
Structured check-ins at 30, 60, and 90 days ensure accountability, ROI measurement, and visible progress toward independence and authority.
