Your Meeting Should Produce a Decision.


Meetings are not neutral.

They either produce a clear decision or they quietly weaken your authority.

Most leaders run meetings on habit. Agenda. Updates. Discussion. Then the same issue resurfaces next week under a different name.

The visible cost is time. The hidden cost is credibility.

When decisions are vague and ownership is unclear, execution slows. People look elsewhere for clarity.

The Lead the Meeting Founding Cohort begins March 10.

15 seats. 12 weeks. Live implementation.

You will bring one real meeting that you have already run.

Over 12 weeks, you will redesign it. Instead of repeating conversations, you will learn how to create meetings that get results. Instead of managing personalities, you will learn how to design a meeting structure.

Instead of hoping for engagement, you will define what the meeting must produce before it begins.

This cohort is designed for:

>Senior leaders responsible for results.
>Consultants leading high-stakes discussions.
>Operators holding cross-functional teams together.

It is not for passive learners. It requires testing changes in real rooms.

The founding cohort investment is $297. Future cohorts will be priced at $1,297.

Enrollment is capped at 15. Applications close March 2.

Meetings can be designed.

Hi Reader, I'm launching the first cohort of The Meeting Room, and I want you to know about it before I open it to the public. If you've read the book, you already know the frameworks.

Happy New Year! Thank you. For reading my blog, visiting the site, buying the book, and staying connected across social media. Your engagement tells me this work is landing where it matters. Here's what I keep watching in real organizations. Change fails when the conversations aren't designed to hold clarity, tension, and actual decisions. Meetings show you that gap fast. That's the work I'm staying focused on in 2026. Building on what's already working—the Meeting ROI App and The Meeting...

Yesterday, I had a thoughtful conversation on Janelle Villiers’ podcast about something I see leaders struggle with every day. Most leaders don’t need more authority. They need a better way to lead the room. We talked about what happens when leaders stop trying to control meetings and start orchestrating them instead. Not by talking more. Not by tightening the agenda. But by paying attention to energy, structure, and presence. One of the biggest takeaways from our conversation was this: Your...
