Yes! Formal organizations often have structured processes and systems in place for their managers. We don’t want to replace your company’s formal processes, especially if you are being evaluated on them. However, a lot of managers still get a ton of value from our models, frameworks, and real talk. We believe you will still receive value from attending. Past participants have told us that our training programs helped them build skills to elevate their personal lives to! Let’s chat and make sure we are the right fit for you!

This program is a great fit for growth-minded individuals who want to learn and apply their learnings immediately into the workplace.

Our participants have been:

• New managers (recently transitioned in the last year)

• Experienced managers who never received training

• Founders

First, we focus on an individualized strengths-based approach. A one size fits all approach doesn’t work for everyone. Individuals are not robots and they shouldn’t be trained to be one. Think of the best leaders. Are they all the same? Likely not. The best leaders know their unique strengths, know which strengths to use, and have worked on their blind spots.

This experience recognizes that you are all unique individuals with different challenges and goals. We encourage you to play to your strengths rather than mirror what somebody else is doing. We provide best practices, tools, tips, and hacks but at the end of the day, change comes from what works best for you.

Second, we are highly focused on the startup and first-time manager experience.

Third, this is not a glorified webinar series. Unlike other manager
training programs which may be pre-recorded videos or one speaker speaking to a group of hundreds, we are customized to you and your challenges.

We focus on you and your experiences. That is why we keep these cohorts small. We are not a sales farm trying to get 50 or 100 people into a cohort like some other courses. We want to talk through YOUR actual challenges.

Last but not least, we’ve been told our experience is fun, psychologically safe, empathetic, engaging, practical, and highly interactive. Contact us to read the case studies.

Yes. We frequently build and implement private training programs for companies that have a group of recently promoted managers.

If you are scaling fast and need training support, reach out to partner with us.

We are known for customizing our programs to fit with an organization's language, culture, and processes.

Startup managers operate in unique environments and most traditional training programs were built for the corporate environment, rather than the startup environment.

Startup managers are often asked to build planes and fly them while managing others and taking orders - all for the first time.

For instance:

• Startups operate with limited runway, change, and uncertainty. This means startup managers must learn how to work with limited resources, smaller teams, and operate under a lot of uncertainty.

• Startups are often unstructured, have limited resources, and have limited systems, playbooks, or processes. This means startup managers must learn how to set up structures and systems for themselves, often from ground zero.

• Startups funded by venture capital firms face extra pressure to meet growth metrics-stress that falls to the manager. This means startup managers must learn how to operate in high-pressure environments.

Yes! Managers from non-profits often join our cohorts. Non-profits and startups are more alike than you realize. They both:

1. Rely on external funding and are usually always in "fundraising" mode

2. Lack resources to hire everybody they need

3. Lack the proper systems, tools, and processes. They need to be scrappy!
