I get it.
Sometimes, it feels like you’re in a maze of product features, metrics, and market trends. You’re wondering, ‘Am I heading in the right direction? I’m working tirelessly but still running into a wall. What am I missing?’
You’re too close to things. And as much as you might try, it’s nearly impossible to read the label on the jar you’re sitting in. You're not broken, You've just outgrown your decision-making framework. You need the fresh eyes of an outside perspective willing to listen—clearly and efficiently—and then go far deeper and ask questions that may surprise you…and maybe even annoy you.
YOU’VE BEEN STUCK FOR MONTHS
You’re working harder than ever but not making progress. More but better just isn’t getting the job done. Even though you’re frustrated, you know something needs to change, but the path forward isn’t clear.
YOU GET ADVICE FROM EVERYWHERE
You’ve read all the reports, heard all the conflicting advice, and attended all the conferences. But generic advice isn’t cutting it—you need insights tailored to your unique situation.
YOU’RE DROWNING IN OPTIONS
Stuck making critical decisions while drowning in everyone's opinions about your next move? You're not lacking options—you're drowning in them. You need help cutting through the noise so you can move forward with conviction.
Break Through
with Chris
Pinpoint your critical roadblock and take decisive action.
Prepare
Reflect on this:
— If you could make ONE decision with complete confidence that would help you sleep better at night, what would that look like?
Schedule
Select a time from Chris’s private Calend.ly schedule. It’s an easy-to-use scheduling tool. The call is set for 50 min, but consider adding a 15 min buffer—breakthroughs often happen in those extra minutes!
During your session
You’ll receive a tailored discussion outline to help guide our conversation. Chris will help you drill down to your core challenge and identify your most impactful next step.
Take action
The real value happens during our 50 minutes together—when you finally have the focused space to see what's been invisible from inside your daily operations. Most executives discover that stopping everything to think clearly about ONE decision creates breakthrough they hadn't experienced in months.
Within 24 hours, you’ll get:
- The critical insight you discovered, clearly articulated.
- The specific next step that emerged from your new clarity.
- The key indicator to track your progress
These bullet points complement your own notes and serve as a reminder of the breakthrough you achieved.
Armed with a diagnosis
Any additional questions on your mind can be found here.
I'm not trying to solve every challenge you face. Instead, this session is intentionally designed to identify your ONE highest-leverage decision. When you're drowning in everyone's opinions (including your own), 50 minutes of focused clarity can break months of decision paralysis.
That depends.
At its best, your highest-leverage decision becomes crystal clear, often for the first time. When you can finally see the path forward, decisive action tends to follow naturally. The ROI of confident decision-making is exponential. When you stop second-guessing every move and act with conviction, your entire organization moves faster.
At a minimum, you’ll gain an outside perspective on your business challenges and a clearer sense of direction. But even if you don’t commit to the work, you’ll have gained an educational aspect and a sense of control over your business.
One of the only reasons I can actually help you is that I am not in your world. You’re too close to things. And as much as you might try, it’s nearly impossible to read the label on the jar you’re sitting in. You need an outside perspective willing to listen—clearly and efficiently—and then go far deeper and ask questions that may surprise you…and maybe even annoy you.
I don’t presume to know your business better than you do. This outside perspective allows me to recognize the decision-making patterns that keep successful executives stuck, regardless of their specific market vertical.
I completely understand the hesitation. Executive isolation is real—you're expected to have all the answers. Rest assured that all information you share is kept in the strictest confidence. I’d have gone out of business years ago if I had abused that trust.
For a focused 50 min. session like this, we typically don’t use formal NDAs. The nature of this discussion is mainly focused on giving you the momentum and direction needed to tackle a challenge. For an engagement this small, getting lawyers involved makes little financial sense. Everything shared remains confidential and held in strict confidence.
After working with principals of EdTech organizations for several years now, here’s what I’ve found to be true: while the details differ, the decision-making patterns are remarkably consistent. The executive who's paralyzed by investor pressure faces the same core challenge as one overwhelmed by team input—too many voices, not enough clarity on which direction actually works for you.
Put simply, the real problem is rarely what is seen on the surface. It’s the inability to see the forest for the trees when you’re too close to the issues. That inside view can make every challenge seem like an unprecedented obstacle. And that’s precisely where our outside perspective is most valuable to you.
I’m not just going to toss a grenade of hand-wavy ideas and then say ‘Good luck!’ as I run out the door. That doesn’t serve you, and frankly, it’s not how I operate.
So here’s exactly what you can expect from our intensive 50 min. call:
- You won't leave with a to-do list—you'll leave with decision clarity.
- If I've asked the right questions, you'll see your path forward clearly and feel confident taking action. The breakthrough isn't me telling you what to do; it's you finally seeing which decision has the highest leverage for impact.
Think of it like getting a concentrated dose of our brain trust’s expertise and pattern recognition from working with EdTech organizations. But real, sustained results will come from you and your team putting those insights into action.
Overthinking is a symptom of having too many voices in your head without a clear framework for evaluation. This session helps you distinguish between productive analysis and decision paralysis. You'll leave knowing the difference between gathering more information and simply delaying action.
Come prepared to discuss the strategic decision that's keeping you up at night. Which direction are you stuck choosing between? What conflicting advice are you receiving? The most important thing is to show up fully engaged, challenge assumptions, and tackle what’s keeping you up at night.
