1-on-1 mentorship for

Software Engineers

Growing into Leadership

Personalized mentorship for software engineers ready to lead teams, drive tech decisions and take the next step in their career.

Moving into leadership felt like the natural next step. But in reality, it was more like a career change.

I knew how to write clean, efficient code.

  • But building well-functioning teams?

  • Making smart decisions under pressure?

  • Dealing with stakeholders and vague expectations?

I had no idea at all.

I struggled for a long time. Honestly, I wasn’t even sure I could do this in the long run.

Then I found a mentor — and everything changed.

I stopped jumping from task to task.

I learned how to prioritize, communicate, make quick (yet good) decisions, and create clarity in chaos.

I became the leader others trusted — I made the decisions when it mattered, and the team followed.

My bosses noticed — and it led to further promotions.

Today, I help developers like you take faster steps, with fewer setbacks to become impactful tech leaders.

Testimonial

I applied for the 3x3 Mentorship Program with Gábor because I saw an opportunity to improve my leadership skills and learn best practices for leading teams.
As I had just stepped into the Engineering Lead role for the first time in my career, I was trying to lead a team and set up processes — but in reality, everything felt chaotic. Anxiety and constant firefighting didn’t lead to real results. That’s when I connected with Gabor and decided to join the program.

Going through the structured modules week by week, I was able to address specific problems, remove poor leadership practices, and become more organized and focused. This also reflected in my team’s improvements and the start of creating real business impact.
The most valuable aspects for me were time and priority management, improving communication, and learning how to avoid the common traps new leaders often fall into.

I would highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to strengthen their leadership skills and, through a structured approach, learn how to build a team that consistently delivers business outcomes.

Thanks to Gábor, I was able to achieve goals such as becoming more organized, aligning business and technical perspectives, feeling more confident, and being more productive for my team.

I especially want to highlight Gábor’s ability to break down complex problems to their root cause in a simple way, which makes finding the right solution much easier. I also really appreciated the practical tools, templates, and guides - such as the time-blocking template, 1-1s guidance, communication framework, and conflict resolution framework - as well as the support in solving real-life challenges within my team.
