Start with a free two-minute score. Go all the way to a private room of owners who get it. Wherever you come in, the work is the same — get you out of the day-to-day and make you the leader the business can finally run without.
From a free score
to a seat at the table.
The Bottleneck Scorecard
FreeFive questions reveal your Owner-Independence Index and the single pillar holding you back. The fastest way to see where you actually stand.
Private Coaching
Focused, confidential work built around your specific issues — the business, the people, and the person running it all.
- Monthly rhythm built on accountability, not advice-dumping
- One bottleneck at a time, one clear move each session
- A sounding board who’s actually run a company
The Leadership Roundtables
Seats limitedA small, curated table of owners who get it. Once a month: peer hot seats, a focused teaching, and a room that holds you to your word.
- Confidential by design — every chair is earned
- Real issues, processed together with structure and candor
- The accountability and altitude you can’t get alone
The Independence Method™
A four-part program that walks your business from owner-trapped to owner-optional.
- Unhook → Systemize → Multiply → Compound
- Built on the four pillars we measure in the Scorecard
- Run 1:1 or inside the Roundtable
Team & Leadership Coaching
For owners building the management layer that finally runs it without them. Coaching for the team you’re growing to lead.
Workshops & Retreats
Creative offsite events for teams, and weekend retreats for leaders who need altitude. A day (or two) to work on the business, not in it.
Not sure where
you belong.
Three core ways to work together, side by side. When in doubt, start with the Scorecard or a discovery call and we’ll find your fit together.
| Private Coaching | The Roundtables | The Method™ | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Owners who want focused, private work | Owners who want a peer room that gets it | Owners ready to systemize, end to end |
| Format | 1:1, fully private | Small group, curated | 1:1 or in the Roundtable |
| Cadence | Monthly sessions | Monthly, in person | Structured, multi-month |
| The room | You & me | 8 peers, one table | You & the framework |
| Entry | Discovery call | By application | Discovery call |
Reach out
Book a discovery call or take the Scorecard. Five minutes, no commitment, no pitch.
We find the fit
A straight conversation about where you’re stuck and which room — if any — is right. I’ll tell you honestly.
We begin
You leave the first session with one clear move — and someone who checks you made it.
Before you reach out.
In person or virtual?
Both. 1:1 coaching is available virtually and in person around Kansas City. The Roundtables meet in person — the room is the point. Workshops and retreats are in person by design.
I’m not sure which is right for me.
That’s exactly what the discovery call is for. Take the Scorecard, then let’s talk — I’ll point you to the right room even if it isn’t one of mine.
Do you only work with [a certain industry]?
No. The people side of leadership is the same whether you run [trades, services, a firm, or a product company]. If you sign the front of the checks and the business still runs through you, we should talk.
What makes you different from other coaches?
I’ve actually run a company — 19 years in the owner’s chair. You won’t get recycled frameworks from someone who’s only ever coached. You’ll get someone who’s sat where you sit and asks the question you’ve been avoiding.
