Here’s how I know… I know because it’s what I wished I had so many times when I was navigating my career and, eventually, my own business. It’s my life’s mission to make sure no other woman, especially no other Black woman, goes through what I did. I’ve run the gauntlet, escaped the traps, and I’ve seen (and experienced) a lot. Now I use all that knowledge and outside perspective to help other women and their businesses level up.
Picture this: Your company is a ship navigating through uncharted waters, and I’m the Chief Navigation officer™, helping you see the best path to your destination, planning viable alternative routes and guiding you masterfully through obstacles that arise.
If you’re ready to do the work, so am I. Each session is tailored to meet the specific needs of the Founder. While the unique nature of each individual’s circumstances makes it impossible to guarantee specific outcomes or results; we can guarantee that if you do the work, you will see a step change in your leadership, your people and your business. We encourage all participants to come prepared and ready to engage with the material, keep an open mind, and maintain realistic expectations. Rest assured; I’ve poured my heart and soul into creating an exceptional experience providing valuable insights and strategies. Nevertheless, please understand that the ultimate success of any business endeavor depends on various factors, including individual effort, market conditions, and other exceptions.
Who is this for: Female Founders and Co-Founders running professional services businesses and leading teams. This is NOT a VIP Day. This is a COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY INTENSIVE THAT DRIVE RESULTS. This is WORK!
What: Full day (6 hours) in-person strategy day in Houston, Texas. The session is completely customized to you and your business. Not mine. You should know there will be some pre-work to be delivered 1 week prior to the session.
If you’re ready to get really strategic as you create your legacy of excellence, you’ve come to the right place.
You’ve got places to go. And I have world-class expertise in:
To make your path less hustle/grind and more strategic abundance.
I’m Laurel Rutledge, Chief Navigation Officer™. After a long career as a senior executive in corporate, WOMEN FOUNDERS are who I want to be helping in this world. That’s why I’ve put together The Founder’s Intensive – Full Day Strategy Session.
This completely customized one-on-one approach will give you a clear path forward.
And, I promise, we’ll keep the humor flowing along the way too – because why not have some fun while achieving your dreams?
To ensure your continued success, we offer three monthly follow-up calls for 60 minutes each. Because let’s be real, achieving your business goals is a journey, not a destination. And we want to be there with you every step along the way.
So what are you waiting for? Contact me today to schedule your session and experience success like never before. I can’t wait to work with you! One week before your session, you’ll have some pre-work to do.
That way, we can hit the ground running when you touch down here in Houston, Texas.
During the first half of the day, we’ll clarify your core values (not just for your company), mission, and big and small goals.
And we’re going to go deep. I won’t let you off the hook with surface answers or what you think you’re supposed to say. That would not serve you, and that’s not what I’m interested in. I’m interested in helping you get aligned, clarify your vision, and move into empowered action.
That’s why in the second half of the day, we’re going to focus on (now that you know who you are and where you’re going): what are you willing to do to get there?
If there are conflicts in what you want and what you’re willing to do, we will chart another course – and that’s okay! There’s more than one way to get where you want to go. That’s where outside perspective becomes crucial. I can see things from the outside and I can connect dots that you’re too close to see.
Some say I can see the future. I can’t. BUT – I’ve seen a lot.
I know a lot. And I can help you avoid some nasty pitfalls on your way to success.
