Meet The Coach
Brad Schwartz
I spent nearly 25 years leading global technology teams at Intel. In early 2023, I left to build Tech Leaders Coach, working with technical leaders on the toughest parts of leadership.
The transition was a lot harder than I expected. I'd done the work - mitigated risk, built new skills, surrounded myself with the right people. But the old stories showed up anyway. Fear of failure. Fear of financial insecurity. Even when the foundation was solid, it didn't always feel that way.
Over the last few years, I've climbed toward my own second summit - building a coaching practice that balances meaningful work, income goals, and the freedom I was chasing. I'm heading into 2026 with the confidence to broaden my focus and curious about the side trails I haven't explored yet.
Second Summit Adventures is a new offering that brings it all together - my experience navigating transition, the coaching frameworks I've learned, and a lifelong love of chasing powder, hiking, and biking. Sometimes you need to get out of your office, out of your routine, and into a place where clarity has room to happen. That's what this is for.
