Founder & Startups
Helping Your Team Grow Into Successful Leaders
A hands on program for founders and small businesses who know that the people they hire today are the same people who will help (or hinder) how far the company can go.
What We Focus On:
Things Every Growing Team Needs
You already know how to build a product however what can be much harder is building the people around you. These are examples of the skills which can make or break a team as it scales, and the ones we spend our time on together in these learning labs.
Working Well Together
Closing the gaps that slow a growing team down. Helping people solve problems side by side instead of in their own corners, and give each other feedback that actually helps.
Getting Ready to Lead
Preparing people for more responsibility before you actually hand it to them, so you're not scrambling to find leaders when you need them most.
Speaking Up With Confidence
Helping your people find their voice, whether they're in a client meeting, a team huddle, or presenting to you. Clear, confident, and comfortable in any room.
Owning It, Not Just Doing It
Teaching your team to take initiative and run with things, instead of waiting to be told what's next. That's the difference between an employee and a future leader.
Building Real Trust
Every conversation your team has with a customer or partner shapes how people see your business. We work on building trust on purpose, not by accident.
Why It Works:
The Graceful & Grey Difference
This is not about any training program that simply put together in a few days.. I have spent more than 30 years in sales, marketing, relationship building, leadership, and customer experience, and I too am a founder. I built this because I know what it actually takes to grow a business through people and how important it is to have the leadership skills required to be successful.
Founders & Leadership Teams
You already know building a business takes more than a great idea. It takes leading through uncertainty, sharing your vision clearly, and growing the people who help you carry it forward.
Teams Outgrowing "Founder Does Everything"
If you're past the point where you can be in every conversation, we help you build the culture and leadership bench that lets the team run without you in the room.
