Rise above the grind and accelerate your skills and IB career.
Most coaching for investment banking is for interviewing and recruiting. This is coaching for everything after.
One-on-one work for junior and mid-level bankers who want to progress and improve, with someone who did the work in your seat.
We'll work on the tangibles and intangibles.
Where you might be feeling unsupported or stuck
- You don't have a mentor who has been in your seat, and haven't connected with one inside your firm.
- Some topics feel too sensitive to raise with teammates.
- You don't have an outlet to test your thinking before taking it to your senior bankers.
- You're struggling to prioritize across live deals and competing deadlines.
- You don't have training to manage up more effectively.
- You're struggling to manage down effectively and build real management skills.
- There are skills you want to develop, but you're not sure where to start.
- You don't have a thought partner for your career planning — whether that's continuing in IB or moving elsewhere.

Your Coach
I'm Tyler Dieck. I recently wrapped twelve years in investment banking, progressing from the most junior role — summer analyst in 2013 — to director in 2023. I spent my entire time in IB on the same consumer industry coverage team in San Francisco.
As an industry coverage banker, my deal experience ran the spectrum of products: M&A (sell-side and buy-side, public company mergers), equity (four lead-left IPOs, multiple other IPOs, follow-ons, convertibles, ATMs) and debt (private credit and leveraged finance).
Along the way I devoted real energy to team development and analyst recruiting, and built a sense for what functional, effective team culture actually looks like.
My team came to me for many informal coaching conversations over the years. These were rewarding for me as a way to share what I've learned through the fires and peaks of investment banking.
