WHY LEARN FROM JASON & ETHAN:

Advice is based on personal rapid career growth:

- Jason in 7 years went from Assistant Digital Media Planner (managed 0 people) to VP Digital Marketing (40+ org, P&L ownership, $400M+ marketing budget). Tracked at a promotion every ~1.5 years. In that timeframe, Jason also became an Advisory Board Member (youngest by 10+ years).

- Ethan spent 12 years at 3 startups then 15+ years at Amazon (being promoted from Senior Manager to Director to VP). Ethan promoted 8 reports from Senior Manager (Amazon L7) to Director (Amazon L8), contributed to 25+ Director promotions, hired 10+ Directors internally and externally, drove the promotion of 3 engineers to Principal, and of my former reports 2 are current Amazon VPs (L10) and 5 are C-Suite outside of Amazon.

Learn both the clear cut tactics and the FAANG executive point of view:

- Jason gives you the tactics, proven systems, and personal stories

- Ethan gives you the big tech executive perspective

- You will also get a bonus session with Nishant Jain (10+ year Engineering Leader at Apple) & Jason where Nishant will share his top advice with Q&A

The transformation we want you to have:

BEFORE:

- “I don’t know how to stand out.”

- “I do not have executive sponsors nor champions.”

- “I do great work, but I sometimes get overlooked.” 

- “I know the promotion process, but I do not know how to drive it successfully.”

- “My career is good, but I want it to be better and faster now.” (I am ambitious)

AFTER:

- “I know exactly what to do differently tomorrow!”

- “I have clear steps to stand out and increase my visibility.”

- “I know the blueprint to lead and drive my promotion process.”

WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR:

Ambitious individual contributors (ICs) and managers with <10 years experience in any discipline and domain (e.g. Tech, Product, Marketing, Design, Data, Eng, and Operations) who want to fast track their career.

WHO SHOULD NOT TAKE THIS COURSE:

This course is not for everyone, including:

• You don't want to put in the work

• You look to others for direction (instead of thinking for yourself)

• You believe promotions and building win/win relationships is not a 'real thing' and/or is mostly up to luck

• You are confident you already know this content and what to do

• You want personalized 1:1 coaching

• You want a slow paced course. This course starts as an intensive 2-day to get the core material with follow-up sessions for more actions and Q&A.
