What changes

Twelve weeks, three shifts.
1

Month 1: your calendar

Find the ten hours a week that should not be yours, and hand them off.

2

Month 2: your team

Your leaders own decisions, so they stop routing through you.

3

Month 3: you

A written operating rhythm, and a board ready version of you.

I stopped being the bottleneck in about six weeks. My exec team noticed before I did.

Rafael told me on the fit call that I wasn't ready. Eight months later I was, and the cohort was worth the wait.

Applications reviewed within one business day.

This is for you if...
  • Every important decision still lands on your desk
  • You hired senior people and still do their jobs
  • Your board wants a CEO and nobody has said what changes

It is not for you if you want someone to run the company for you, or can't protect one hour a week for twelve weeks.

Lead the company you already built.

Why it is built this way

  1. 01

    Budget is asked plainly

    Saying the price range out loud saves you from calls with people who cannot invest.

  2. 02

    The problem in their words

    Asking what is breaking first gives you the start of the sales call.

  3. 03

    A kind no

    Applicants who are not ready still get value, so they come back when they are.

Made for coaches and course creators.
