The first time we used this meeting process we had 100 issues. A few weeks ago, we cleared the list.

We have world-class meetings now. I can't walk into another organization's meeting, it actually hurts me.

Chad helped us implement a practical leadership system that actually sticks. Today our meetings are sharp, communication is better, and we're solving the root causes of problems instead of repeating the same issues. We've become a more accountable and efficient organization.
Leadership Development
Meet Your Facilitator
Most leadership teams don't have a strategy problem — they have a meeting problem. Decisions stall, issues resurface, and accountability doesn't exist. The good news: that's fixable. Most teams just never treat it that way.
For nearly 30 years, I've built and led high-performing organizations, including scaling a company recognized as the #1 ranked "Best Place to Work" in one of the country's toughest industries.
Today, I help leaders of Jewish organizations transform their leadership meetings through practical systems that strengthen accountability, improve execution, build healthier cultures, and create more aligned leadership teams.
"I'm not teaching theory. I'm teaching the practical systems I've used, refined, and implemented while building organizations and leading teams for nearly three decades."
If you're committed to building a stronger leadership team and a healthier organization, I'd love to help you get there.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most leadership training teach ideas. I help you implement a practical system that transforms the way your leadership team meets, communicates, and makes decisions. You'll leave with clear next steps to put into practice immediately, so your team improves week after week.
Because most teams have quietly decided their meetings are just how things are — a situation to live with instead of a problem to solve. They're not. When meetings are focused, accountable, and productive, better decisions get made, issues get resolved, and your leadership team becomes more aligned. Improving your meetings creates momentum that carries into every part of your organization.
- You must be the #1 or #2 leader in your organization with the authority to implement organizational change.
- You must already have a leadership team (even a small one).
- You must commit to holding a 90-minute leadership team meeting on the same day and time every week. This weekly meeting is where you'll implement the system you will learn.
This program works best with a paid staff team, though a dedicated group of volunteers can also succeed with it — as long as they commit to showing up weekly, or at minimum every other week. Where it tends to struggle is when a volunteer team can't hold that consistency. If that's a concern for your team, we can talk through what a realistic cadence looks like on your discovery call.
You'll learn practical leadership systems you can immediately implement in your organization, including:
- How to run a world-class meeting with your leadership team
- How to identify and solve root issues holding your team back
- How to create accountability with clear responsibilities
- How to create and use a fiscally responsible organizational scorecard
Other pieces of running an organization well — accountability charts, core values, quarterly and annual planning — are real and valuable, but they're a separate, optional engagement. We don't bundle them in, because most teams aren't ready for that layer until the weekly meeting is running well.
That said, the weekly meeting alone can transform how your organization runs. It's the foundation everything else depends on.
None. No CRM, no project management software, no new accounts to set up. Your team runs on one shared document that your assigned "secretary" maintains during the meeting — that's it. The goal is to make this simple and easy, not add more systems for you to manage.
Through live training, daily reminders, personalized feedback, and implementation support, I'll help your team quickly build the habits needed to run focused, productive meetings that create lasting results within 30 days.
To ensure meaningful discussion and personalized learning, each cohort is intentionally kept small- max 6-8 teams. One on one engagements are available and encouraged.
The core training runs approximately 3 weeks — a live workshop, me present for your first real meeting to coach in real time, and hands-on implementation with daily reinforcement. From there, you have access to me for coaching and questions through the first month, so your team has full support while the habits lock in.
Yes. In addition to live sessions, you'll get daily reinforcement called "DRIPS" through the Built to Lead app, plus access to my personal clone inside the app — trained on 30 years of what I've learned running this system — so you can ask it questions in real time if something comes up mid-meeting.
I'm also personally available throughout.
Yes. You and your team will receive exclusive access to the Built to Lead app, where you'll find recorded sessions, implementation resources, and additional coaching content. The app serves as your ongoing resource throughout the program, allowing you to revisit key concepts and access practical materials as you implement the system.
The investment is a one-time payment of $5,000 (20% of your investment is returned to your organization as a charitable donation).
Your investment includes live training sessions, ongoing implementation support, and coaching as needed for you and your entire leadership team.
If you'd prefer us to come to you, onsite training is $6,000 plus travel expenses, with 20% of the investment also returned to your organization as a charitable donation.
Most importantly, we stand behind the program with a 100% money-back guarantee. If you don't believe it delivered exceptional value, we'll refund your investment—no questions asked.
The program is delivered virtually, making it accessible to leaders regardless of location and eliminating the time and expense of travel. This allows participants to stay fully engaged while immediately implementing what they learn.
For an additional fee, including travel expenses. In-person delivery provides the opportunity for more interaction, hands-on coaching, and real-time application with your leadership team.
Yes. While the program begins by helping your team run a world-class meeting, additional training is available for organizations that want to continue building stronger systems. Topics include creating an accountability chart, defining and actually using core values to build a healthier culture, and setting effective quarterly and annual goals. These trainings can be delivered virtually or on-site and are designed to help your organization build on the foundation established through your leadership meetings.
Schedule a discovery call to learn more about the program, discuss your organization's goals, and determine whether it's the right fit. We'll answer your questions, review the participation requirements, and help you decide if this experience aligns with your needs.
