Leland, founded in 2021, runs a coaching marketplace linking individuals with thousands of expert coaches across 50+ categories including MBA admissions, consulting and product management.
Leland is a coaching marketplace founded in 2021 that connects individuals with expert coaches for career and educational goals. Its platform hosts thousands of coaches across more than 50 categories, among them MBA admissions, management consulting, product management and investment banking. The company reports having helped tens of thousands of people since launch and has raised $19m in funding.
The business is organised around measurable outcomes for clients rather than open-ended instruction. Coaches are listed by specialty, and users select and book them through the marketplace at joinleland.com. Alongside the core coaching categories, the platform also covers career coaching and education more broadly.
Internally, Leland states three values: openness, an action bias, and "Always Be Coaching". The company says it hires for potential rather than pedigree, weighting the rate at which candidates learn over their formal background. Its team is drawn from firms including Amazon, Google, Uber and LinkedIn, and the stated mission is to make expertise more accessible.
