The Gpower Mastermind is a small-group coaching program for female founders, executive and product leaders, designed to hone your skills and sharpen your decision-making.

We created Gpower in response to a growing need among women entrepreneurs for product leadership coaching that’s aligned with their goals & values.

Our  approach integrates three core services:

In the Gpower Mastermind, you get expert coaching right when you need it – plus ongoing feedback and support from a highly curated peer group going through similar experiences.

All delivered within a proven design framework that will 10X your path to product-market fit.

Imagine having an expert coach & trusted peer group to turn to for ongoing guidance & feedback as you navigate your design and leadership challenges. 

How would that impact your decision-making confidence & stress level?

MEET YOUR COACH

Hi. I’m Amy Jo Kim—game designer, entrepreneur & startup coach. I’m passionate about helping entrepreneurs super-charge their path to product/market fit and build deeply engaging products. 

I’ve worked with hundreds of founders, product leaders and cross-functional teams around the world, helping them bring their ideas to life.  From my wonderful students and clients, I’ve learned what works—and what doesn’t—in the early stages of product innovation.

Recently, I’ve learned that female founders:

  • face a unique set of leadership challenges  – both within their company & externally with stakeholders & investors
  • want support to navigate these challenges in an powerful way that feels authentic & gets results
  • will get the most impactful and meaningful results from a mix of 1:1 coaching with targeted peer feedback

I created the Gpower Mastermind to bring high-impact results to the people who need it. 

If you’re ready to super-charge your product leadership skills,  I’d love to support your success.

Game Thinking sounds great, but I’m building an app/platform/enterprise system. Is this only for games?

Game Thinking can improve any product experience that can be built around learning, mastery and empowerment. It works for games, sire – but this process ALSO works for products, apps, blogs, marketplaces, events – any designed experience where your goal is long-term engagement. 

This reminds me of Gamification – but I’m not hearing a lot about game mechanics. What’s the difference?

Gamification is the open door – a way to get people interested in the power of games. Game Thinking is the next step. It’s about bringing your ideas to life like a game designer, and creating feedback looks that empower & engage your players in a meaningful way.
