By invitation
The 1% Mastermind.
An action and accountability group for founders, executives and business owners. Every week you set the actions that move you forward, and the group holds you to them.
Why a group
Knowing more isn’t the gap. Doing it is.
Most people spend too long learning and too little time acting on what they already know. A group fixes that. You say what you’ll do, you report back, and you see how others solved the problems you’re stuck on.
Progress you report gets done.
A meta-analysis of 138 experiments with 19,951 people found that monitoring goal progress helps people reach their goals. The effect was larger when progress was reported to others or made public.
Peers lift performance.
About 2,800 young firms were randomly assigned to small groups whose managers met every month for a year. The meetings raised firm revenue by 8.1%, and the gains held a year after the meetings ended.
Coaching moves goals.
In a randomised trial, directors and senior managers in a large public health service each set 2 goals, and both groups did the same leadership workshop. The group coached over the next 10 weeks lifted their goal attainment scores by 56%. The group still waiting for coaching slipped slightly, then rose to the same level once they were coached.
Coaching holds up.
A 2023 review pooled 37 randomised trials of workplace and executive coaching, covering 2,528 people. Coaching had a clear, moderate effect on leadership and personal outcomes.
How it works
One rhythm, every week.
Clarify where you are now, define the mission, set specific goals, then plan and execute in short loops with people who expect you to show up.
Declare your mission
Set your future-self goals for 90 days, 1 year and 3 years. Saying them out loud to the group is the first commitment.
Weekly strategy call
A coach runs the call. You name the priority actions for the week ahead, based on your goals and your situation.
Accountability partner
Each month you are paired with a different member to hold each other to the actions you set.
Monthly strategic plan
Review what moved and what stalled, then set the plan for the month ahead. Cut what is dead, double what is working.
Why it works
Success leaves clues.
When you hear how someone else solved the problem you’re stuck on, you can adopt what works and skip the mistakes.

Small moves, every week, add up.
1.01 to the power of 365 is 37.78. 0.99 to the power of 365 is 0.03. The group keeps you on the right side of that line, one week at a time.

Before you apply.
The questions people ask most about the Mastermind.
Is the 1% Mastermind right for me?
If you keep a list of goals but stall halfway, start things you don't finish, or know you have more in you, yes. The Mastermind gives you the tools, frameworks and accountability to build a plan and keep moving on it.
Why do I need to apply?
The group is the product. Everyone is committed to their own outcomes and adds something to the others. The application starts a short conversation about where you are, why you want to grow and what you'll bring to the group.
What if my goals are too small?
There's no such thing here. This is an action and accountability group for any goal, big or small. What matters is that the goals are yours and they mean something to you.
How long does it last?
A minimum of 16 weeks. Historically, 85% of members carried on after the intensive phase into the graduates group.
Who is in the group?
Executives, founders, business owners and parents, from 24 to 65 years of age, across many industries. What they share is the decision to perform at a higher level.
Is there preferred pricing?
Yes, for members who commit long term and for clients in my private coaching programs. We cover it on the call.
