Upgrade your Operating System
Welcome to a turning point in your career and personal growth.
I’m Rolando Brown, your guide to navigating the complexities of modern work-life using ancient wisdom and the latest in artificial intelligence.
If you’re a leader, entrepreneur, or professional feeling overwhelmed by the demands of your role, you’re in the right place. With over two decades of experience, I specialize in helping high-achievers like you reclaim their time, boost productivity, and achieve a harmonized lifestyle.
By integrating cutting-edge technology with timeless practices, I offer personalized coaching that transforms stress and burnout into efficiency, clarity, and success.
This is a customized approach to achieving harmony and greater productivity. I combine a deep understanding of smart devices, wearable technology, automation, work tools and artificial intelligence, with a proven set of protocols to boost energy, eliminate distractions and claim back time in your life.
During this transformative 8-week journey we elevate your operating system to new heights. As your personal productivity concierge, I offer a one-on-one partnership tailored to your unique needs, ensuring your experience is as unique as you are.
We begin with a deep-dive discovery process to understand your personal and professional challenges and goals. This includes evaluating how you interact with technology and identifying areas for improvement. This phase includes surveys, assessments, and one to two calls to tailor the coaching program to your needs.
I work closely with you in person for four to five days, on-site in your home and workplaces. I identify immediate wins, set up systems, and introduce tools to stabilize and upgrade your foundation. It's about quick wins and setting the stage for sustained growth. This might involve setting up new systems, exploring time-management techniques, or integrating tools to help you work smarter. This step is about laying a solid foundation for stress reduction and setting a strong foundation for the transformative weeks ahead.
With a clear plan in place, we move into ongoing, personalized coaching sessions. Depending on your progress, we adjust the frequency and focus of our sessions to ensure you're continuously moving toward your goals, and experiencing targeted positive adjustments to your daily routines and work habits. This phase is about deep, transformative work that’s paced just right for you.
As you begin to master new skills and integrate new tools, we'll review your progress and fine-tune your approach. This ensures the changes you've made are sustainable and deeply embedded into your daily life, paving the way for enduring success and satisfaction. This includes creating documentation that enables additional support. This might involve creating explicit guidelines and protocols for collaborating and communicating with your assistants, colleagues, and collaborators. It might also include approaches for establishing better rapport with friends and family.
Our journey culminates in a celebration of your achievements, with an eye toward future growth. We will pivot to a focus on how you can continue to build on these foundations, ensuring you have the tools and knowledge to maintain your new level of performance and satisfaction.
Throughout our work together, you’ll gain insights, strategies, and tools tailored just for you, designed to fit seamlessly into your life and work. We'll celebrate your progress and discuss how to maintain your new level of performance and–if desired–how I can continue to support your journey, ensuring you feel confident and prepared for what's ahead.

Valued Skills
My coaching program is a personalized, two-month-long, collaborative journey aimed at cultivating lasting, positive changes. This approach sets itself apart from the generic, do-it-yourself learning available online and the large group programs that really struggle to offer personalized outcomes. In contrast, offer a dynamic and fully engaged one-on-one partnership.
I believe in the unparalleled importance of directly engaging in my clients’ lives, becoming both a catalyzing witness and a helper in their day-to-day experiences, challenges, and uses of true school and new school technology.
How?
In brief, my clients authorize me with powers akin to those of a Personal Concierge. Yes, my clients enjoy that level of personal attention and quality care. I witness their life in dedicated way for a week, helping them personally with their technologies, and then I shape a technical infrastructure optimized for their peak performance. Over the remaining 7 weeks, we collaborate directly to set and achieve a updated operating system. This form of total engagement allows me to develop protocols, routines and systems tailored to their unique needs and goals.
This in-depth, personal involvement over the 8 weeks of a partnership is designed to quickly integrate into my clients lives. Through this I come to understand and help them overcome their challenges. Generally, I look to convert potential into tangible outcomes and elevate both their professional and personal experiences. Beyond offering practical tools for stress reduction and enhanced productivity, the heart of my work is to facilitate profound, personal transformation. After we’ve completed a strong foundation for independence and continuity, we celebrate our shared achievements and determine if further coaching is beneficial.
A: My coaching methodology is deeply rooted in a blend of extensive educational background, professional experience, and specialized certifications in fields ranging from Leadership and Business Development to Marketing, Software Engineering, and Peak Performance Coaching. I’ve had the privilege of learning from prestigious institutions like MIT OpenCourseWare, New York University, Flatiron School, Reforge, the 8 Factors, and the Flow Research Collective.
At the core of my approach is a unique integration of ancient wisdom with the latest in Artificial Intelligence (AI), forming the basis of my custom frameworks such as Technorganizing, AIDE (Ancient/Artificial/ Intelligence Driven Efficiency), and the Technology Stress / Flow Ratio. These frameworks are designed to guide clients through a personalized journey toward becoming ‘Technorganized,’ enabling them to harness both ancient insights and modern technology for peak performance.
A cornerstone of my methodology is being an ICF Certified High Flow Coach, which equips me with specialized skills to help clients achieve and sustain high-performance states known as ‘flow.’
This certification provided me with:
Through the combination of my educational background, the power of AI, ancient wisdom, and the science-backed techniques provided by my high-flow coaching certification, I can facilitate transformative experiences. These empower clients to achieve optimal states of consciousness and performance, guiding them toward a harmonious balance between innovation, well-being, and productivity.
