About this session
Great leadership is not just about managing people. It is about building trust, making better decisions, communicating clearly, and helping others do their best work. This MentorCruise session is designed to support professionals who want to grow into stronger leaders, whether you are stepping into leadership for the first time or looking to become more effective in an existing role.
You’ll work with an experienced mentor to navigate real leadership challenges and develop a clearer sense of your style, strengths, and growth areas. Together, you can work through topics like communication, delegation, feedback, team dynamics, decision-making, and executive presence. The goal is to help you lead with more confidence, self-awareness, and effectiveness in the situations that matter most.
Your mentor
’m a Product and UX/UI Designer with 12+ years of experience across startups, scale-ups and global organisations, working across product strategy, UX/UI, design systems, growth, team collaboration and end-to-end digital product development.
I’ve worked with organisations including Nike, Rolls-Royce, Mercedes-Benz, Salesforce, Virgin Media O2 and Atlassian, as well as high-growth startups, and I’ve supported designers and product professionals as they move into more senior, influential and leadership-focused roles.
This session is designed to help you become a stronger, more effective leader in the situations that actually matter day to day.
We can work through areas such as:
- stakeholder influence
- decision-making under pressure
- delegation and ownership
- giving and receiving feedback
- difficult conversations
- team motivation
- prioritisation
- strategic thinking
- leadership presence
- moving from individual contributor to leadership
The focus is practical, not theoretical. We’ll look at your real environment, your team dynamics and the situations you’re currently facing, then identify what is working, what may be holding you back and what needs to change next.
The goal is to leave you with sharper self-awareness, stronger leadership instincts and clear actions you can apply immediately.
