COACH

Rosalee Gordon M.Sc, B.Comm, ACC, CPCC

As an executive and leadership coach, I develop strong leaders and high-performing teams in technology-enabled companies. With an impressive portfolio, I've coached and advised technology and product leaders from over 50 technology companies, ranging from early-stage startups to scaleups to global enterprises.

As a technology executive, I led product management, design, and engineering teams at four software companies. I combine my firsthand executive experience with my broad learning from executive coaching to offer my clients a deep empathy for what it is like to be them. I am known for my uncanny intuition, and asking just the right powerful question to unlock insights and action.

A builder of professional communities, I am a Founder of the Product Leaders Exchange, Founder of the Product Calgary Association, and Director at Associate Product Managers (APM) Canada.

I am a strategic board-level thinker, offering insights to Boards, CEOs, founders, and executive teams. I help leaders communicate the impact of decisions on financial performance, long-term business strategy, and risk.

What sets me apart as a coach is my commitment to cultivating a collaborative and growth-oriented mindset. It's not about telling you what to do; it's about empowering you to discover your path. The journey from a proficient leader to a strategic executive and beyond is filled with breakthroughs, and I am here to facilitate those unique insights.

Clients describe me as their secret weapon for navigating the complex landscape of tech leadership. I am their sounding board, objective third party, and safe confidant.

Beyond the executive table, I embrace family life with my husband, daughters, and extended family. You will often find me gleefully conspiring with other nature-lovers to run a half-marathon, hit the gym, hike mountain summits, or traverse Nordic ski trails. My latest adventure is doing improv theatre for some creative sparks and comic relief.
