The Growth Stack
Your Personal Pocket Coach
Project Description
A six-month 1:1 coaching program can cost 10% of an annual salary. Even with a coach, many professionals express a desire for real time support during key conversations and career moments. Beyond this, people managers don’t want just to be coached, they want to be a coach to their direct reports and teams but aren’t sure how.
We’ve identified the most common professional development topics. We’ve also learned which questions act as a catalyst for growth.
The Growth Stack takes this insight and puts the right questions into the hands of anyone who wants to grow and develop themselves or their teams.
Since we know not all situations and relationships are the same we’ve categorized the cards into “Depth Levels.” Opt for a deeper level for an established relationship or a more foundational card for a new relationship.
These cards pack a punch for leaders everywhere and work whether you have a coach or a new to professional development.
But we know users want choice. That’s why in the future we plan to offer each Growth Area in individual packs. We also plan to expand and include topics like: Performance Management, Goal Setting, Networking, Running a Business, Interviewing, and more.
Your contribution will help us do this.
The New Exec is a premiere leadership development and executive coaching firm. The New Exec and our creative partners have clocked hundreds of hours to bring this product to life to support leaders everywhere.
Contribute any amount to help us reach our goal! We’ve put together a range of rewards and exclusive offers for this campaign. Bonus: this is the only time all 3 Growth Areas (1:1 Career Conversations, Team Building, and Self-Coaching) are guaranteed to be available all together so be sure to grab this limited edition crowdfunding deck!
Help us share our campaign and the product.
We want to hear how you are using the cards! All early users have the chance to share thoughts and get exclusive access to new launches.

- Where and when can I get just The Growth Stack and no additional rewards?
- Right now the product is only available through our IFW campaign. We’re crowdfunding so we can bring the cards to life on Amazon and a direct site. We’re unsure of the timing but anticipate this to be in the second half of 2021. Keep in mind that this will be the only time we can guarantee all 400+ questions and all three categories together in one deck. Future iterations of the product will be more focused so you can purchase topics that matter most to you.
- Can I order in bulk for my team?
- Yes! In the future we will be doing bulk sales. Get in touch with us at [email protected] to get the inside scoop once this option becomes available.

- Not at all! We’re a women owned business and think the team at IFW (made up of women and men) is the best out there which is why we went with a raise on the site. We partner with women, men, and non-binary individuals globally and nothing about our products or services is gendered.

- Absolutely! We are happy to collaborate with organizations and groups to produce custom cards. Contact us at [email protected] to get the convo started.
