New Webinar: 
How to get out of Early Struggle and into Fun

Does it feel like your new venture just won't 'take flight'? Are you plugging away month after month, but achieving no momentum and seeing little return?

Are there times when you think that you're the only one who 'gets it', and that great idea you had maybe wasn't so great after all?

Does it feel like you've 'made it' for a few weeks or months before you find yourself back in survival mode all over again?

If so, your business is caught in what I call 'Early Struggle', and I know how to get you out of it.

I've personally been through the startup process 42 times (including two failures), and somewhere around the 20th launch I finally understood precisely how to get any new venture out of Early Struggle and into Fun (the part where you get to sell lots of what you're offering, be profitable and enjoy yourself).

Who are these people? 
…And should you be one of them?

Those charming faces smiling at you from up there are 15 of the actual founder-owners and executives who I've coached in the last 12 months.

They come from large and small companies (1 employee to 20,000 employees), and work in for- profit and not for profit organizations, in service, manufacturing, government and academia.

I help people like them achieve their personal and organizational growth goals, and I use the Predictable Success / Synergist model to do it in a radically accelerated way.

If you face growth challenges, personally and/or in your business, perhaps I can help.

Listen: Carissa Figgins on Turning Vision into Reality

You might not suspect it from the picture above (or maybe you would :), but Carissa Figgins is one of the most impressive leaders I met in 2012.

Working from a standing start to launch a new venture in less than a year is fearsomely good – doing it when you're facing horrendous bureaucracy is close to a miracle.

Which is pretty much what Carissa has done with her not-for-profit, The Sparrow's Nest, using the Predictable Success model (and a bunch of do-hickey's) to get her there.

Listen to Carissa's story here.

Read: 3 Tech Trends that are Damaging Your Leadership

I'm far from a Luddite. In fact, I'm an easily swayed early adopter.

I love technology, and couldn't do what I do without it.

Used unthinkingly, however, technology can have a highly negative effect — deadening a leader's ability to be effective and curtailing the impact of otherwise great leaders.

In a recent Inc article I outlined the three most egregious examples I see daily of technology being used wrongly or unthinkingly.
