"My company was struggling to grow in an incredibly crowded industry. I kept trying to build better features than competitors, thinking that was the only way to win. I was essentially relying on lower pricing & heavy promotions. This framework helped me step back and identify our unique differentiation that others couldn't easily replicate. We focused on premium positioning and revamped our product & service portfolio, where every offer served a well-defined financial role and served a specific customer need. Initially, we grew revenue by 24%, nearly doubled our profit margin, and increased marketing ROI from barely breaking even to a 3:1 return on investment.

"I was a high-performer stuck at the Director level for over three years. I struggled to think at the enterprise level and make confident decisions quickly. I lacked the executive presence and influencing skills to command respect in C-suite conversations. I was also too involved in day-to-day operations, rather than building leadership capacity within my team. This coaching program was the difference maker. It transformed how I showed up as a leader. It helped me solidify my leadership identity and learn how to influence across levels and organizations. Less than a year later, I was promoted to VP."

"As my company grew, I was drowning trying to be involved in every major decision and micro-managing even the most mundane tasks. I thought good leadership meant having my hands in everything, but I was becoming the bottleneck. This program taught me how to develop leadership leverage. I documented my methodologies & standards, hired A players to leadership roles, trained them to think and decide like owners, and now we have better culture and performance than when we were smaller."
