This workshop goes far beyond educating managers on approach; they shift the way managers think about themselves, their work and about the impact they can have on their team. Bringing Wherewithall in is hands-down the best thing my company has ever done for my capabilities and career and, in turn, the best thing that could have happened for my reports.
Meg Adams, Engineering Manager at Condé NastServices
Wherewithall is the fresh perspective you need, the support you can only give so much of, the skills that are too important for your teams to learn as they go.
We’re eager to help train your managers, grow your leaders, and strengthen your teams. Led by Lara Hogan, Wherewithall provides the following services in support of this mission.

One-on-One Support
- Individual Coaching Sessions
- During each video call, we'll be talking about a topic you've chosen—maybe a current challenge, or your career goals, or a leadership question that you've been itching to ask someone who doesn't work at the same company! We are here to help you grow and develop your management and leadership skills.
- Coaching Retainers
- Coaching can be a key strategy towards increasing the speed and efficiency of filling future open senior-level spots, because we will be coaching line managers and emerging leaders across your organization towards more senior skill sets. We customize cadence based on your teammates’ needs and your organization’s budget.
Group Coaching
- Manager Roundtables
- Roundtables are a safe space for a group of managers to meet and talk through recent dilemmas, workshop challenges they’re facing, and continuously strengthen their management skills.
Testimonials
Lara has been absolutely fantastic in helping grow our engineering leadership. She has done everything from facilitating roundtables, doing talks and running workshops. And every time she has done a great job customizing the work to fit our organization. Without exception, all of these efforts have been very successful.
Allan Beaufour, SVP, EngineeringI started working with Lara during a challenging role transition where I felt like I was drowning on an almost daily basis. Lara didn’t just help me stay afloat - she kept me focused on strategic priorities, helped me work through difficult decisions, and ultimately supported me in harnessing the opportunity to rapidly grow in my leadership capabilities. I’d recommend Lara to any engineering leader looking for extra support outside their organization.
