Unlock Your Next Level of Impact
Executive Mentorship for founders, transformation leaders, and senior operators through inflection points in career, leadership, and purpose.
Haldco
Haldco is the executive mentorship and leadership advisory practice of Cory Haldeman. After two decades leading transformation and building practices at Adobe, Verizon, and Code and Theory, Cory founded Haldco to help high‑performing leaders unlock their next level of impact.
At Haldco, mentorship goes beyond performance; it's about perspective. We work with leaders who have already mastered execution and are ready to evolve, bringing clarity, calm, and courage to their decision‑making.
The Next Level Project

Leadership is a practice, not a title. The higher you climb, the fewer honest mirrors you have, and the more you’re navigating complexity without perspective. The leaders I've respected most didn't seek control; they sought clarity. They understood that speed without structure, or rigor without trust, kills momentum. They moved with conviction, built alignment without coercion, and led through ambiguity without pretending to have all the answers.
After two decades helping enterprises transform — at Adobe, Verizon, Code and Theory, and beyond — I've seen what separates leaders who sustain impact from those who burn out. It's not intelligence. It's not charisma. It's the ability to translate complexity into clarity, to build trust at scale, and to lead with both rigor and grace.
The Next Level Project is where I share what I've learned: frameworks, scars, and perspective — to provide experienced leaders with a trusted partner to explore new patterns of thinking, decision‑making, and leading.
How it Works
90‑Day Sprint
We meet biweekly for 60‑minute sessions over a 90‑day period. Each conversation is structured around your goals and challenges, with frameworks and reflection exercises tailored to your context
Personalized Growth Map
At the outset, we co‑create a growth map that outlines what success looks like for you—whether it’s navigating a major transformation, sharpening your decision‑making, or developing a more authentic leadership presence
Unlimited Async Check‑Ins
Between sessions, you have access to support via email or messaging for real‑time questions and reflections.
What to Expect
This is not therapy or consulting. It’s a partnership grounded in truth, perspective, and action. You’ll gain pattern recognition in complexity, sharpen decision‑making, and cultivate a leadership presence rooted in clarity and calm.
