CEO Coaching is for ambitious high-performing entrepreneurs that:
You’ll receive deep coaching sessions every two weeks to work through the issues most important to you. You’ll also receive feedback and tailored training on the areas that you want to develop.
Yes. Clients receive 24/7 phone support for those moments when you need it most.
Of course! Everything we talk about in a coaching session is strictly confidential and between only you and your coach.
The best CEOs have a natural curiosity, a strong desire to improve, and the ability to communicate effectively. If you also have an open mind for new ideas, and the humility to admit that there is always room to grow (even after you know it all), then you’re coachable!
CEO coaching is highly affordable for late Seed and Series-A+ venture-backed startups. Even if you're pre-revenue or just starting out, one-on-one coaching might still be more cost-effective than you think.
CEO coaching is typically a business expense, paid for by the company.
Your company wins or loses based on the quality of its leadership. Taking better decisions earlier will save you months of wasted effort and cost. We estimate a return on investment of between 7X and 50X.
Working with an external coach allows you to fully explore your doubts and share ideas openly in ways that are hard to achieve with your co-founders and board.
Investors are investing in you. They want CEOs who are clear, confident and self-aware. Investing in yourself is completely aligned with your investors’ goals.
No, we specialise in, and work exclusively with, founder CEOs, concentrating on the specific challenges and opportunities that are unique to this role.
