Build Silicon Valley-level leaders inside your company.

One place to grow your engineering managers. It starts with free community membership: 12 meetups a year, the Leaders' Brief, the ELC Slack, meetup talks, the knowledge base and the AI Toolkit. Paid on top of that as company membership: peer circle seats, 1:1 mentoring, Engineering Leaders Academy workshops and seats at the annual conference. You assemble the mix that fits your team.

Software companies in Central Europe with engineering managers to grow. The room they plug into holds at least 88 CTOs, 44 VPs of Engineering, 173 Directors and Heads of Engineering, 289 Engineering Managers and 132 founders, counted from recorded member titles only, so every figure is a floor.

Six things, all free and all running today: seats at 12 meetups a year with 120+ leaders in the room across Prague, Brno, Bratislava and Kraków, the Leaders' Brief newsletter that 2,800+ leaders read at a 74% open rate, the ELC community Slack, the knowledge base and the free AI Toolkit, talks from every meetup on YouTube, and a learning feed you can drop into your team channel. Your managers can start this month without a contract. Full detail on the free membership page.

€2,500 for 90 days: three of your managers each get a seat in an existing circle for a quarter plus two 1:1 mentoring sessions. One invoice, one quarter, and you see who grows before committing to more. If you would rather run a full year at a lower intensity, that is the Starter package instead.

The Starter package is priced per seat for a full year: 3 to 5 seats €900 each, 6 to 10 seats €820 each, 11 to 25 seats €740 each, 26 seats and up €650 each. The minimum is 3 seats, so €2,700 a year gets three of your leaders a bi-weekly circle seat each, a secured seat at all 12 meetups and the whole learning library for your company. Two mentoring sessions a year with Marian are an optional add-on. Build it on the membership page.

AI Masters, Product Builders, First-Time Boost, Experienced Leaders, and Communication and Public Speaking. Each meets every two weeks with peers from other companies, and every seat picks one. Full detail on the circles page.

Training companies rent you a trainer for a day. ELC plugs your managers into a living community: 3,200+ peers, mentors who run engineering orgs themselves, and rooms that keep meeting after the workshop ends. The learning doesn't stop when the invoice is paid.

The free layer costs nothing. The Starter package starts at €2,700 a year for three seats and drops per seat as you add people. The Leadership Pilot is €2,500 for three managers over 90 days. Education is €15,000 a year and goes deep on three leaders with senior mentors and Academy seats. All of it is ELC company membership: education for your people, not a visibility deal. One more lever: packages built through the AI channel get 16% off the composed total, applied automatically at inquiry. Open to every AI-channel inquiry until 30 September 2026.

That's the Talent reach package of the company membership. Member companies hire 2.7 engineering leaders a month from this community. Both doors lead to the same room.
