AI is changing how organizations work. I help you do it right.
I help organizations adopt AI and develop leaders who drive it forward.
Your organization talks about AI. Let's make it real.
AI Consulting • AI-Native Architecture • AI Agents • Workshops • Hands-on
88% of organizations already use AI, but most are still stuck in the experimentation phase (McKinsey, 2025). I help close that gap.
Don't let your team leads learn to swim on their own
Workshops for Team Leads • Personal Mentoring • Managers Trips • Programs for Organizations
As someone who led teams at Gong, Forter and Port — I bring tools from the field, not from textbooks.
I've led teams and worked with team leads from the industry's top companies
Code is binary. People aren't. That's where I come in.
My unique combination of rich technical experience (15 years in the industry, including leading R&D teams) and facilitation and leadership in nature allows me to bring a different perspective to leadership. Just as in nature, in management too — you need to know when to lead and when to let things unfold, when to act and when to listen.

What People Say About Me
הדר חזן
Team Lead @ Redis
Outdoor Retreat Participant
"Chen's workshop created a moment of pause, connection, and precision for me. In a rare combination of patience, listening, and managerial depth, I left with meaningful insights."
אור מלכא
Senior Full Stack Engineer @ Gong
Gong Team
"Chen is the best manager I've ever worked with. Beyond his technical understanding, he has a rare ability to connect people and build a cohesive team. He personally invested in my professional growth, pushed me to take on new challenges, and created an environment where everyone feels valued and significant."
שני אלחרר
Engineering Group Leader @ Upsolver (Qlik)
Workshop Graduate
"Chen is an experienced facilitator who delivers content with ease. Even though I was familiar with the topic, he sharpened its importance — not just through his own delivery, but through group activities that created a live demonstration of why maintaining a Manager's README actually matters."
עמית בנדור
CTO | AI & Engineering Executive
Outdoor Retreat Participant
"Chen knows how to create a precise space that allows you to both enjoy yourself and dive deep. The combination of meaningful content with open, honest dialogue was simply excellent. I left with a wealth of insights."
גלעד שוהם
Dev & Open Source Leader @ Bit
Outdoor Retreat Participant
"Chen created a unique space that allowed us managers to disconnect, connect with nature, and learn from one another. His initiative to organize a trip combining hiking with peer-led content (like the 'Saying No' workshop led by one of the participants) was spot-on. Chen knows how to build a community, bring the right people together, and create conditions for rich, productive dialogue."
מור פז
R&D Director @ Port.io
Workshop Graduate
"I'd been familiar with the Manager README concept for a while but never picked up the gauntlet. The workshop was the push I needed. Chen delivered the content excellently, and I got all the tools to create my own README — and even take the concept further to the other team leads in my company."
אור ממן
Senior Full Stack Engineer @ Gong
Gong Team
"Over two years under his leadership, Chen demonstrated a rare combination of professionalism, technical expertise, and genuine care. He created an environment where the team felt empowered, which allowed us to deliver complex core features with a strong sense of ownership and partnership. He's a manager who sees the people just as much as he sees the code."
מתן חלד
DevOps Team Lead @ Port.io
Workshop Graduate
"As a new manager, the workshop made a lot of sense to me. The most significant insight I left with was the importance of clarity with the people I work with — they need to understand exactly what I expect of them, not guess. That insight is worth more than any technical tool."
יחיאל דהן
Team Lead @ Tipalti
Workshop Graduate
"Chen brings rich, real-world management experience. His workshops don't just provide genuine value and practical tools you can apply immediately — they also create an open dynamic and meaningful connections among participants."
יובל מרגלית
Engineering Manager @ Gong
Outdoor Retreat Participant
"Highly recommended! Chen facilitates the retreat in a relaxed yet professional atmosphere. The content was interesting and clearly well thought-out. I left with practical insights and plenty of food for thought for the road ahead."
אילנה גרייזל עמי
Strategic Programs & Social Impact
Outdoor Retreat Participant
"Chen leads processes with sensitivity and confidence, and uniquely blends order and precision with genuine human warmth. The content was relevant and perfectly bridged practical tools with deeper processes that allow you to pause and reflect."
