Work With Me

Coaching designed to support women in STEM leadership as they navigate complexity, power, and growth — on their own terms.

Signal + Flow offers coaching for women in STEM leadership who are ready to move through their careers with greater confidence, clarity, and ease.

This work is especially supportive if you are:

  • Stepping into a new leadership role

  • Feeling stretched, stuck, or second-guessing yourself

  • Navigating organizational dynamics that feel draining or misaligned

  • Ready to lead without over-functioning or self-silencing

The Real Rules of STEM Leadership

An 8-Week Cohort Coaching Program

A small-group coaching experience for women in STEM leadership who want to grow with clarity, confidence, and self-trust — alongside others who understand the unique dynamics of leading in technical environments.

This cohort-based program is designed to uncover the unspoken rules of STEM leadership — the norms, expectations, and power dynamics that often go unnamed, yet deeply shape women's experiences at work.

What We'll Explore

Each week, we'll demystify one essential rule of leadership in STEM environments:

✨ Rule #1: Ambiguity is the job.
Learn to navigate uncertainty without needing all the answers first.

✨ Rule #2: Influence moves work – Authority amplifies it.
Understand the distinction and how to use both effectively.

✨ Rule #3: Clarity is your currency.
Strengthen your ability to articulate vision, boundaries, and needs.

✨ Rule #4: Psychological safety enables performance.
Create conditions where people (including you) can do their best work.

✨ Rule #5: Personal and team visibility provides organizational clarity.
Navigate visibility strategically without self-promotion discomfort.

✨ Rule #6: Resistance is data, not a stop sign.
Reframe pushback as information rather than personal failure.

Through structured coaching conversations, practical frameworks, and reflection with peers who get it, you'll develop the skills and self-trust to lead in a system that wasn't built with you in mind — without abandoning yourself in the process.

What Participants Are Saying

The Real Rules of STEM Leadership was piloted with a small group of women leaders in STEM environments. Here's what they shared:

"The topics we covered were highly relevant and relatable to my transition into leadership roles. They sparked meaningful conversation with the other attendees and provided a space to be vulnerable with one another in sharing our experiences. Hearing the specific examples from others — and their feelings and insights — was the most valuable part."

— Pilot Program Participant

"Ambiguity is something that isn't much talked about in leadership classes, but it should be!"

— Pilot Program Participant

"The most impactful part was knowing that so many of us face similar responses when confronted with ambiguity. It was a relief to realize I wasn't alone in that."

— Pilot Program Participant

Who This Is For (+ Not For)

This coaching is for you if:

  • You want to grow as a leader without hardening or shrinking

  • You value reflection as much as action

  • You're ready to examine both internal patterns and external systems

  • You're willing to engage authentically with a small group of peers

This may not be a fit if:

  • You're looking for quick-fix performance tactics

  • You want someone to tell you exactly what to do

  • You're not ready to engage honestly with your own leadership experience

  • You prefer exclusively 1:1 coaching
