Live on Zoom · 60 minutes · First session free
One live hour with peers on a question that keeps owners and leaders up at night.
Virtual sessions for owners and leaders of $10M to $30M businesses. Each one takes a single question, works it through with Seth, Jimmy and a small group of peers, and hands you a field-tested playbook to use the same afternoon.
Next up, Thu 3 Dec: If you were unavailable tomorrow, what would break?
Sound familiar?
Each session takes one of them, puts it on the table with peers who carry the same weight, and gives you a practical way to move it this week.
A field-tested playbook, every session.One-page tools Jimmy uses with managers, worked through live. You keep the PDF.
You're expected to have all the answers, and there's no one to check yours with.
The important work keeps losing to the urgent. Interruptions and firefighting eat the day.
The board wants you closer to the detail. Your name is on the door, so when it really counts, it lands on you.
There's nobody at work you can say any of this to. So it keeps you up at night.

The winter series
Book one or all five. All times Central. You get a confirmation straight away and your Zoom link before the session. The dark cards show where The Room's two days in Frisco fall.
The series pass · optional
One hour helps. Coming back is where it compounds. The owners and leaders who book the whole series see the same faces each session, hear how last month's fix went, and get to know people facing the same questions. By the next Room, it is a group you know.
