CEO bootcamp
An intensive designed for early stage CEOs who want to up-level their skills
You’re an early-stage founder with a young product that’s starting to take hold. Customers are using it, they’re happy, and the first dollars are coming in. But everything is tight: capital, time, and resources. Every decision feels critical.
You’ve never done this before, and the weight of…
- Hiring well
- Aligning your team
- Managing the team
- Managing day-to-day operations
- Building a financial plan
- Taking your product to the next level
…is all on you. You know that if you nail this, there’s a real chance to win. But even one misstep could mean the end of the dream.
