Who it is for
You do not have to work it all out alone.
Sometimes another template or course is not what you need. A conversation can help you see what matters and decide how to approach it.
Taking on greater responsibility
For producers and heads of department preparing for a leadership step, or newly promoted directors working through new demands.
Working through a career change
For game developers reassessing their direction and deciding what to focus on next.
A practical rhythm
Talk it through.
Put it into practice.
Come back and reflect.
Mentoring connects the conversation to your day-to-day work, with goals and follow-up between calls.
Time to work things through
The current mentoring model includes two 60-minute Zoom or Teams calls per month: dedicated time for your production and leadership challenges.
Support between conversations
Slack, Discord or email check-ins keep questions and progress connected between sessions.
Goals you can return to
Set a personal plan together, review progress and keep your next steps connected to what you want to develop.
We will discuss the right practitioner, scope, rhythm and fee before you decide. No paid booking is required to start the conversation.
Experience behind the conversation
Different perspectives.
A practical starting point.

On working with Liam
Support for the person behind the role.
An excerpt from Purva’s published account of working with Liam. Attribution reflects the role shown in that testimonial.
Purva Garg
“He is a mentor, a champion for game production and game producers who often just have to hit the ground running without support or guidance in an ever changing tech and creativity driven games industry.”
