Smarter Decisions When the Stakes Are High
High-stakes coaching for leaders facing urgent, complex situations who need to move fast — with precision.
IS THIS YOU?
You might be thinking:
- "The business is growing faster than I can keep up. I feel like I am drowning."
- "I have an overflowing platter of demands and I cannot figure out where to focus."
- "It is lonely at the top and I need to make high-impact strategic decisions — fast."
- "A key leader just resigned and I need to stabilize my team while finding a replacement."
- "My board and I are not aligned — and the tension is affecting my ability to lead."
- "I am navigating succession — either preparing to exit or stepping into a role someone else built."
- "I just stepped into a new role and I have 90 days to prove myself."
- "I have blind spots I cannot afford to miss."
If any of this sounds familiar, you are in the right place.
WHAT IS PRECISION INTENSIVE™?
Precision Intensive™ is focused, high-stakes coaching for leaders who need to move fast — without sacrificing quality of thinking or decision-making.
This is not general leadership development. This is concentrated support for a specific, urgent situation — where the decisions you make now will shape everything that follows.
In weekly sessions with a seasoned executive coach and trusted thinking partner, you will:
- Navigate high-stakes decisions in real-time
- Uncover blind spots you cannot see on your own
- Build awareness to recognize future blind spots earlier — so you make smarter decisions with better precision
- Prioritize the highest and best use of your time when demands are overwhelming
- Gain actionable steps, mindset shifts, and new perspectives — efficiently
- Move forward with clarity when everything feels urgent
HOW IT WORKS
Phase 1 Assess & Anchor (Weeks 1–2)
Understand your situation, define what success looks like, and identify immediate priorities.
Phase 2 Decide & Act (Weeks 3–8 or 3–5)
Make critical decisions, execute in real-time, and adjust as circumstances evolve. This is where the work happens.
Phase 3 Solidify & Sustain (Final Weeks)
Lock in wins, build sustainability, and plan for what comes next.
TWO WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

- Situations where waiting 12 weeks is not an option
WHAT YOU GET
This is not a program with binders and documents that sit on a shelf. This is real-time coaching for leaders navigating fast-moving, high-stakes situations.
You get a thinking partner who helps you:
- Navigate high-stakes decisions in real-time
- Uncover blind spots you cannot see on your own
- Build awareness to recognize future blind spots earlier
- Prioritize the highest and best use of your time when demands are overwhelming
- Move forward with clarity when everything feels urgent
- Make smarter decisions with better precision
Every session meets you where you are — addressing what is holding you back or causing you migraine headaches at that moment.
WHO THIS IS FOR
- CEOs, Presidents, and Business Owners facing a critical moment
- Executives stepping into a new role with a short window to prove themselves
- Leaders navigating an acquisition, merger, or major transition
- Founders or executives preparing for (or navigating) succession
- Leaders whose business is growing faster than their capacity to keep up
- Executives facing a high-stakes situation where the decisions made now will shape everything that follows
WHO THIS IS NOT FOR
- Leaders who are not ready to do the work — this is intensive, not passive
- Executives looking for someone to tell them what they want to hear
- Anyone without a specific, urgent situation that demands focused attention
- Leaders seeking general development without a defined outcome (that is a different engagement)

If you are facing a high-stakes situation and need a thinking partner who can help you move fast — with precision — the next step is a conversation.
