You're the founder.
Act like it.
You’d think that as your company scales, founders would feel more empowered. But too often, the opposite is true and you end up stuck in a role or operating model that makes you miserable, and doesn’t get results.
Founder leadership is not zero-sum; empowering the CEO can empower the entire company. Our program helps founder CEOs take charge the right way so they can scale their business with confidence.
