Clarity Sprint 📖 The Executive Translation Influence Method

You're doing next-level work.
Let's make sure the people who decide can see it.

In two weeks, you'll know how you're being read, the one story that positions you for the next level, and your next 30 days. All of it in writing.

Your words, translated (examples)
Completed the platform migration on schedule. Owned the migration; made the call to phase the rollout.
Provided analysis for the Q3 pricing decision. Changed the Q3 pricing recommendation.
The go-to person for production issues. Fixed the root cause so the team stopped needing one.

The pattern

Does this sound familiar?

"I'm the one they call when it breaks."

"My manager says I'm ready next cycle. That's what they said last cycle."

"Someone less technical just got the promotion."

"I know I need to network more, but I don't know what to say."

You don't have a performance gap. You have a translation gap.

Promotions and offers are decided in rooms you're not in, by people repeating a sentence or two about you. If that sentence is "great technically," you stay where you are. The work is already next-level. The language around it isn't.

What happens

Two weeks, start to finish

  1. Day 0

    You book and send your materials

    A short intake form, plus your résumé, LinkedIn, most recent performance review, and the role you're aiming for.

  2. Days 1–4

    I read everything

    I look for the decisions, scope, and impact hiding in your work: the parts experts leave out.

  3. Day 5

    90-minute Translation Session

    One deep 1:1 conversation. We find your next-level story and test it out loud.

  4. Day 8

    Your Translation Brief arrives

    A written document you keep and use in reviews, promotion conversations, and interviews.

  5. Days 12–14

    30-minute follow-up

    We pressure-test the plan before you use it, and answer anything that came up.

The deliverable

What's in your Translation Brief

  1. Your one-sentence positioningWhat you want decision-makers to say about you when your name comes up.
  2. The gap mapWhat the next level requires, how you're read today, and the distance between them.
  3. Three proof storiesYour strongest work, rewritten from what you did to what you owned and decided.
  4. Ten line rewritesFor your résumé, LinkedIn, or self-review, ready to paste.
  5. Your pathPromotion where you are, or a move elsewhere, and the reasoning behind the call.
  6. Your 30-day planThe first five moves, in order, with what "done" looks like for each.

Is this you?

Who it's for

A good fit

  • ✓ Senior engineers, data scientists, analysts, scientists, and finance, legal, and product specialists
  • ✓ Senior ICs, Staff and Principal engineers, managers, and new directors ready for more scope
  • ✓ People aiming for a promotion where they are, or a bigger role somewhere else

Not the right fit

  • ✕ Early-career job seekers
  • ✕ Anyone who only wants a résumé formatted
  • ✕ Anyone looking for a guaranteed title or salary. Nobody can honestly promise that.

Why me

I was a journalist before I was a coach

My job was finding the story that matters and making people care about it. I've been translating technical experts ever since: first as an editor turning R&D language into plain English, now as a coach turning deep expertise into next-level authority.

1,100+ hours of 1:1 coaching
50+ successful client outcomes
25+ five-star reviews

"…responsible for working closely with our Research and Development team and translating very technical terms into readable manuals, marketing collateral, and web copy."

Former manager at WordSmart · LinkedIn recommendation, 2009

"We had our first session just a week before I began a series of job interviews. She polished my professional communication and even empowered me to negotiate (and secure!) a higher salary. Everything we discussed came up in my interview the very next day!"

After the Sprint

What happens next is up to you

You can run the 30-day plan on your own. If you want hands-on help through a promotion cycle or a search, you can continue into Executive Positioning, the full private program: four 1:1 sessions, your leadership narrative, LinkedIn overhaul, networking strategy, and interview and negotiation preparation. It's $6,000, and your $1,000 Sprint fee counts toward it. We'll talk about it at the follow-up only if it fits.

Questions

Questions people ask before they book.

No. It's finding and wording the story every document and conversation should tell. Ten line rewrites are included, so you'll leave with language you can use right away.

Only if you tell them. Everything we discuss is confidential, and I'll only contact you at your personal email.

That's fine. The Sprint works either way. Deciding which path fits you is part of the work, and the Brief ends with a recommendation and the reasons for it.

Your résumé, your LinkedIn URL, your most recent performance review if you have one, and a description of the role you want next. About 20 minutes of intake questions.

Translation Sessions are usually scheduled within 7 days of booking.

Full refund any time before your Translation Session.

You've done the work. Let's get it read at the right level.
