Summer 2023 Cohort
WHen you realize the Adult in the room is yoU
a deVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR START-UP leADERS
wHAT yOU WILL LEARN
"When you realize the adult in the room is you" was built on insights collected from over 10 years of working inside high-growth start-ups and over 500 hours of working 1:1 with start-up leaders. We recognize that being a leader in a start-up comes with unique challenges and needs unique development solutions.
While many training programs spend a lot of time on theoretical leadership concepts, we know that start-up leaders want information that they can act fast on. Our trainings include digestible, easy-to-apply frameworks that work for fast-paced, high-growth environments. This program ensures that your leadership will grow as fast as your company.
Program Outline
Course 1
When you realize you're a leader now
Leadership doesn't just happen over night because you're given the title. Great leadership takes focus and intentionality. In course one we will define what it means to be intentional in leadership and why that matters for maximizing impact
Course 2
When you realize that change is hard
One of the most common challenges in start-ups is moving through constant change and shifting priorities. In course two we will learn how keep ourselves and our teams encouraged and engaged in ever-changing environments
cOURSE 3
When you realize you have to be compassionate & move the needle

COURSE 4
When you realize that people are...complex
Leadership is hard because people are hard. In course four we will learn how to break down the complexities of human challenges and work through a framework for solving our most difficult people-related decisions
