For High-Performing Leaders in Technology, Healthcare, Consulting, and Financial Services who are ready to move from Manager levels into Director level roles.
Youâve done the hard part.
Youâve performed.
Youâve achieved the certification.
Youâve led teams.
Youâve produced quality work.
And yetâŚ
Youâre still not getting the promotion.
That is not right.
It is usually a positioning problem.
Which is why I created the Navigate to Accelerate program.
Introducing Navigate to Accelerateâ˘
A customized 1:1 promotion strategy program that helps high-performing professionals become the obvious next choice for Director level roles.
In the next 90 days, youâll learn how to:
â Break through promotion stagnation
â Increase visibility with senior leadership
â Position yourself as promotion-ready
â Influence how decision-makers evaluate you
â Move from âhigh performerâ to âobvious next choiceâ
STILL GETTING GREAT REVIEWSâŚÂ BUT NO PROMOTION?
That disconnect is exhausting.
Because you know your problem is not competence.
You execute,Â
You lead, You deliver.
And stillâŚ
Promotion keeps moving past you.
Someone you trained gets elevated.
Someone less capable gets the title.
And once again you hear:
âKeep doing what youâre doing.â
But that may be the problem.
You have been doing what youâre doing for years.
And it hasnât produced the move you want.
Not because you lack ability.
Because you may be missing the system.
THE HARD TRUTH MOST PEOPLE NEVER TELL YOU
At Senior Manager levelâŚ
Performance alone rarely gets you promoted.
Perception does.
Positioning does.
Executive readiness does.
And if you do not understand how those decisions are actually madeâŚ
You can keep doing excellent workâŚ
And still stay invisible.
That is the invisible ceiling.
And it costs more than you think.
Every delay may be costing you:
- $20Kâ$50K+ in compensation upside
- Lost influence and visibility
- Slower career momentum
- Years in the wrong role
- A reputation that becomes harder to reframe
This is not just career delay. It compounds.
Â
NOW IMAGINE THIS INSTEADâŚ
Imagine 90 days from nowâŚ
You know exactly how your organization evaluates readiness for Director.
You know what signals leadership looks for.
You know how to demonstrate those signals deliberately.
Your manager starts discussing the next steps.
Senior leaders engage you differently.
Promotion conversations begin changing.
And advancement feels natural.
Not hoped for.
That is the shift Navigate to Accelerate creates.
What This Looks Like In Real Life
Practical guidance and tips through coaching
Iâve worked very closely with Tom over the past 18 months of my career. Tom provided me leadership and personal coaching as I began my career at a large professional services firm. Being new to the industry, Tom was an integral piece of my development. Tom and I worked diligently to identify my strengths and actionable steps to address my opportunities for development. Tom helped me develop the skills and confidence to develop a brand within the organization and was always available for personal and career support.
One instance where Tom provided tremendous value was helping to navigate a difficult conversation with a project leader. Tom prepared me for the conversation by offering a holistic perspective of the situation, including potential outcomes and insight on how to approach the conversation. Tomâs strategic thinking and methodical approach helped me manage the conversation effectively and has given me the road map to dealing with this situation in the future.
Tom is a trusted advisor, friend and sounding board. His ability to think strategically coupled with his communication skills continue to help guide me both personally and professionally. I highly recommend working with Tom!
~Â Johnny Caputo
VP Account Management, Sterling Brokers
"IÂ was new to a large professional services firm and had no idea how to build a reputation inside that kind of environment.
Tom helped me identify my strengths and figure out how to actually be visible in the right way. There was a specific situation where I had to navigate a really difficult conversation with a senior leader. Tom walked me through it and I came out of that conversation much better than I would have without his help.
I think of Tom as a trusted advisor. I would recommend him to anyone navigating a complex professional environment."
~ Johnny Caputo,
VP Account Management, Sterling Brokers
The Coaching Program helped my career transition
I got to know about 3G Actionâs career coaching services at the inception of my professional innings in Canada. My interactions with the coach (Tom Oluwole in my scenario) greatly influenced and motivated me through my tough times.
We also had mock interview sessions which were extremely helpful as they accurately prepared me to look at my improvement areas and work on them. Every interaction with the coach left me with a lasting experience filled with positivism, curiosity and respect for difference of opinion.
I believe that my sessions with the coach significantly contributed towards landing my first job and growing in my career.
I will gladly recommend the career coaching programs to anyone looking for a transition and wants an unbiased opinion around their career progression. These guys KNOW what theyâre doing!
~Â Jaya Lachhwani
Project Manager, OSF Digital Toronto, Canada
"I landed my first job in Canada after going through the program.
Coming in as a newcomer with no local experience is tough. The mock interview sessions especially helped me see where I was falling short and fix it before the real thing.
I've continued growing in my career since then. I would recommend this to anyone trying to break into the Canadian market."
~Â Jaya Lachhwani
Project Manager, OSF Digital Toronto, Canada
Clarity through the Coaching Program
Desirous of growing my influence as a leader, I embraced the opportunity of working with Tom as my coach in a leadership development program.
It was incredibly impactful. The coaching conversations provided me with the structure, tools, and thoughtfulness that enabled me to accelerate my leadership influence and achieve my career growth ambitions.
~Â Chioma Akins
HR Leader Gore Mutual Insurance, Canada
"I came into the program already leading a team. What I wanted was to grow my influence beyond my immediate role.
The coaching gave me the structure to do that in a way that felt intentional rather than accidental. My leadership presence grew in a measurable way and I started having the kind of impact I was looking for.
I would recommend this program to any leader who feels like they have more to give but hasn't quite figured out how to unlock it yet."

HR Leader Gore Mutual Insurance, Canada
HEREâS HOW THE NAVIGATE TO ACCELERATE SYSTEM⢠WORKS
Step 1:
Diagnose Whatâs Really Blocking Promotion
Identify the invisible gaps keeping you from being seen as ready.
Not vague HR language, generic feedback or guesswork.
Instead, we identify what is actually standing between you and the next level.
Because clarity changes everything.
Step 2:
Demonstrate Executive Readiness
Learn what Director and VP-level decision makers actually pay attention to.
Then learn how to demonstrate those signals in:
- Leadership meetings
- Cross-functional influence
- Strategic conversations
- High-stakes moments
- Promotion discussions
This is where perception changes.
Step 3:
Run Your 90-Day Promotion Positioning Plan
Here, you engineer how decision-makers perceive you over the next 90 days.
You stop reacting, start positioning, deliberately, strategically and consistently.
This is how you become the obvious candidate.
The Coaching Program helped me find and settle in my role
As a newcomer in Canada, full of dreams and doubts, I was very fortunate of coming across Tom while attending a career counseling session, he was the guest speaker that day. As I listened to Tomâs talk and stories, I was inspired to reach out to him and ask further questions. Looking back now, I am very glad I did!
I keenly observed Tomâs genuine interest in helping people find their paths to succeed professionally and personally while simultaneously helping them develop key leadership capabilities.
During the coaching sessions, I was exposed to insightful and effective leadership methodologies. These helped me to lead myself by charting a clear career path and take specific and timely actions to pursue and attain my current professional role in a global firm â a dream come true!
If you are in the crossroad of making a mid-career big move or starting a new career I highly recommend you to engage them, you will be grateful you did!
~ Aida Perez Manager,
People & Change Advisory, KPMG
"I got a role at KPMG after working with Tom.
I came to Canada as a newcomer with a lot of ambition and a lot of uncertainty. He helped me get clear on exactly what I needed to do and I went and did it.
If you are at a crossroads in your career and you're not sure what move to make next, I would highly recommend reaching out to Tom."
~Â Aida Perez
Manager, People & Change Advisory, KPMG
Coaching helped improve my managerial skills
I was looking to find ways to grow my managerial skills both with my client and within my team. Tom provided fantastic coaching through thought clarifying and exploratory conversations. Each discussion provided just the right level of actionable suggestions to improve the outcomes of my efforts.
Tom was very skilled at being able to help me identify the higher perspective in situations while pointing out the common themes from our coaching conversations.
As a result, I found that Tomâs coaching had a profound impact on my professional growth in the consulting business.
I would highly recommend Tom and 3G Action for any of your coaching needs
~Â Ryan Abbot
Senior Manager, Capital Program Transformation, Metrolinx
"My managerial skills improved in a way I could actually see and measure.
Every session left me with something concrete to go and apply. Tom had this ability to zoom out and help me see the bigger picture of what was happening in a situation, which changed how I handled things with my team and my clients.
I would recommend Tom and 3G Action to anyone looking to grow in the consulting space."
~Â Ryan Abbot,
Senior Manager, Capital Program Transformation, Metrolinx
Positive influence on my career journey
Shortly after migrating to Canada and settling into a new role, I had a number of concerns regarding my career trajectory. I was keen to take the right steps to set myself up for success.
It was around that time that I started chatting with Tom. Through our interactions, Tom shared concepts and ideas that helped to shift my perspective to focus on the things I needed to do to achieve my goals. The actions I have taken from my coaching sessions with Tom have positively shaped my career journey.
I have also seen Tomâs professionalism, leadership and coaching skills demonstrated through his work as we partner in leading a not-for-profit organization.
I highly recommend Tom as a coach to guide you as you navigate your leadership and career aspirations
~Â Segun Olowu
Associate Vice President, Productivity & Performance, TD
"I'm an Associate VP at TD now.
When I first connected with Tom I had just moved to Canada and I wasn't sure I was taking the right steps to actually grow here. He helped me shift my focus to the things that actually matter at a leadership level.
The actions I took after those sessions are a big part of how my career has gone since then. I recommend Tom to anyone who is serious about growing their career intentionally."
~ Segun Olowu,
Associate Vice President, Productivity & Performance, TD
WHY THIS WORKS WHEN OTHER CAREER COACHING DOESNâT
Most career advice tells you to:
Work harder... Network more... Be more confident... Wait your turn
That may help earlier in your career.
But at Senior Manager â Director level?
That is not enough, Because the problem is rarely effort.
It is translation.
Turning strong performance into visible readiness.
That is what this solves.Â

Coaching helped me appreciate my skills and potential
I had the opportunity to meet Tom for career advice and coaching and it was a great pleasure interacting with him.
I found him to be very personable and a great listener. He asked me the right questions that helped bring great insight and perspective.
The questions helped me see that I already had the answers within me, but I needed guidance through coaching to bring those answers out. I believe this is one of the greatest benefits of working with Tom.
Tomâs guidance and coaching allowed me to recognize my skills and potential. The coaching sessions also provided me with valuable advice on how to prepare and move forward toward my goals.
Tom has great drive and passion to help others and solve problems and I highly recommend him!
~ Georgiana Dumitrescu
Senior Business Implementation Consultant, CIBC
"What surprised me most was that the answers were already inside me.
Tom asked the kind of questions that helped me see my own potential more clearly. Before the coaching I knew what I wanted but I couldn't quite articulate it or build a real path toward it.
After the sessions I had a clear direction and I actually felt confident pursuing it. I would recommend Tom to anyone who feels stuck and needs someone to help them think through their next move."
~ Georgiana Dumitrescu
Senior Business Implementation Consultant, CIBC
Coaching program got me a promotion
My boss often told me âAde there are two types of IT professionals, those who talk to computers and those who talk to people. If you want to rise in the IT field, learn to do bothâ. Considering that I was a very quiet, reserved âcomputer talkerâ I felt this would be a really big challenge for me.
Fortunately, I came across the Career Accelerator coaching program at 3G Action Consulting, and after a first call to understand what the coaching sessions will cover, I was completely sold!
I immediately signed up and started the sessions. In a very short space of time, I started noticing the improvements from my personal relationships with my spouse and kids to my professional relationships in the office. I became more capable and competent to discuss with people and realized that this helped me to be a better support to the academic and non-academic staff at the university. No surprise that not long after completing the coaching program, I was promoted at my office.
What I love most about this coaching program is that it has touched every aspect of my life. I was looking for a career accelerator, but I actually got much more â I got a life accelerator. Youâll get more than expected value for this investment in yourself.
If you are in the crossroad of making a mid-career big move or starting a new career I highly recommend you to engage them, you will be grateful you did!Â
~ Biodun Adegoke
Network Engineer, University of Texas A&M, Doha, Qatar
"I got promoted not long after completing the program.
Honestly I wasn't expecting it to happen that quickly. But looking back it makes sense. The way I was communicating with people had completely changed. My relationships with colleagues improved. Even my relationship with my family got better.
I signed up because my boss told me I needed to learn how to talk to people, not just computers. I got that and a lot more. If you're thinking about joining, just do it."
~ Biodun Adegoke
Network Engineer, University of Texas A&M
Transition to the next phase of my career made seamless
I was at a point where I was seeking clarity regarding the next steps in my career. I decided to sign up for a complimentary consultation session with Tom and after that, I knew I had to enroll in one of the coaching programs, this is one of the best decisions I made as I left empowered with the skills and resources to prepare me for the next steps.
Tom served as a sounding board and helped me to articulate and identify the steps I needed to take to transition to the next phase of my career. The coaching sessions also allowed me to broaden my horizon and seek opportunities that align with my goals that I wouldnât have recognized prior to joining the program.
I appreciated the fact that the program also helped to work on my soft skills which helped to build my overall confidence and immediately helped me thrive and excel at work.
This is one program thatâs worth investing in and I would highly recommend Tom as a coach.
~Â Simi Mogaji
Senior Solutions Consultant, UKG
"I transitioned into a role that genuinely aligned with where I wanted to go in my career.
Before the program, I knew I was ready for more, but I couldn't see the full picture of what was possible. Tom helped me identify opportunities I would have completely overlooked and worked on the soft skills that were quietly holding me back.
One free consultation was enough for me to know I needed to enroll. I would recommend anyone who is ready for their next level to start with that call."
