You’re not lost.
The map is outdated.
Launchpad is a small-group program for recent grads who want clarity, confidence, and a real plan—without pretending the job market makes sense.
The job market is chaotic and full of headwinds. You don’t need more pressure—you need a compass, a plan, and a crew.
Sound familiar?
- You’ve been applying to jobs into the void and hearing nothing back
- You’re not totally sure what you want—just what you’re supposed to do
- You want work that actually matters, but also… rent
- You’re tired of “Just network more” with zero actual help
- You know AI is a big deal, but you don’t really know how to use it for your career without sounding like a robot
If any of that hits, you’re not broken. You’re trying to build a life in a system that’s unstable and constantly shifting.
Launchpad was built for that reality.
What you get from Launchpad
1️⃣ A real 90-day aim
A clear 90-day aim and a few promising directions—so you’re not trying to chase every path at once or wait for the “perfect” one to show up.
2️⃣ Proof you’re not “just a grad”
-
A set of proof stories that show what you can actually do and how you add value.
-
A résumé and LinkedIn profile that sound like you and make sense to hiring managers.
3️⃣ Tools to work the system
-
A simple AI workflow to research roles, tailor applications, and prep for interviews.
-
A basic outreach system so you’re talking to humans, not just smashing “Quick Apply,” plus practices for dealing with rejection, ghosting, and uncertainty without shutting down.
No hustle culture. No magic hacks. Just structure and support.
Here’s what it looks like on a normal week:
-
Small group of recent grads / early-career humans
-
Six weekly live calls on Zoom on Wednesdays from 4 - 5.30 PM Pacific Time, beginning January 14th
-
Small-group and learning-partner sessions to compare notes and stay accountable
-
Short content drops you can watch on your own time
-
12 weeks of office hours for questions, troubleshooting, and “Is this email okay to send?”
-
Register by December 31 to save $750 off the regular price of $2000 (founder + early bird)
Plan on 4–6 hours per week—enough to build momentum without turning your life into a full-time job search bootcamp.
The goal isn’t to turn you into someone else. It’s to help you move through a messy system with more clarity, confidence, and options.
I help senior leaders navigate chaos. Now I’m starting earlier—so you can enter this chaotic job market with a compass, not just a résumé.
I’m Daniel Lieberman, an executive leadership coach who’s spent the last few decades helping leaders at companies from Amazon and Zillow—and across industries from biotech to civil engineering—navigate chaos, conflict, and big career decisions.
I’ve seen what happens when talented people spend years in roles that never truly fit: burnout, second-guessing, and that quiet “Is this really it?” loop that won’t turn off. I’ve also felt the sting of a tough job market myself; during the Great Recession, after six months of rejections, I got intensely focused and ended up with three offers on the table.
Launchpad is my way of bringing those same tools to the very start of the journey. Instead of unlearning a decade of bad habits later, learn how to aim, tell their story, and build real momentum now—so they’re better positioned for today’s headwinds and whatever comes next.
Launchpad is part of my Humanship™ approach to human-centered leadership and careers: practical, honest, and built for the real world you're stepping into.
A few things you might be wondering...
Do I have to know exactly what I want to do?
Is this a class or more like coaching?
How much time does it take each week?
What if I’m already working?
What if I’m anxious or burned out on the whole job-search thing?
By the end of Launchpad, you won’t have your whole life figured out—but you will know what you’re doing for the next 90 days and why.
Still have questions?
