Support is the word programs use most loosely, so this answer names the specific things and their limits.
One caveat before the list. When we talk about 'support', this differs by 25eight program and by how it is delivered. Each program page details that specifically. What follows is the Structured Next-Level Growth Program, which is the option most owners take.
Key takeaways
- Support during the program is a coach, four applied workshops, three one-to-one sessions, group chat access and written feedback on your outputs.
- Everything you download or build in your own cloud storage is yours permanently, including your Business Brain.
- Every pathway includes twelve weeks of CEO Circle Starter membership afterwards, which keeps your goals, artefacts and capability library live on a ninety-day rhythm.
- The exact support details change between Self-Guided, the Structured Program and working privately, so the program page has the detail on each of the options you're weighing up.
During the Next-Level Growth Structured Program
A coach. Three one-to-one sessions of thirty minutes, booked with them directly at times that suit you, positioned at the three points where they change the outcome: interpreting your diagnostic, refining your strategy, and pressure-testing your implementation plan.
Four applied workshops. Two hours each, online, in weeks one, three, five and eight. Each one opens a phase of the work, and each is recorded so a clash does not cost you the phase.
Group chat access to your coach. For the questions that arrive between sessions.
Feedback on your outputs. Your coach reviews your key artefacts in the platform, so nothing you build goes unreviewed. This is the part owners name most often as the difference, because it is where a good draft becomes a usable one.
The platform. Your pathway, diagnostic, tools, templates and AI-supported activities, along with everything you build and the feedback you receive.
The cohort. A group of owners in the same live workshops, working through the same phases at the same time, asking questions about their own businesses in front of each other. The mix is deliberately cross-industry, and that is usually where the sharpest questions come from.
How it differs by pathway
Self-Guided includes the full online pathway and a thirty-minute diagnostic debrief, with in-platform feedback and coaching addable whenever you want it.
The Structured Program adds the four workshops, three coaching sessions, group chat access and coach review of your outputs.
Working privately is delivered around your business with direct access to your coach throughout, a dedicated review of your strategy outputs, a facilitated team alignment session and a thirty-day adoption check afterwards. Rescheduling a private session needs at least an hour's notice for a virtual session and a day's notice in person.
The program comparison sets the three out side by side.
What happens the day it ends
You keep the system. Every artefact you've downloaded or built in your own cloud storage is yours permanently, including your Business Brain, from day one rather than inside a platform you lose access to.
That's the deliberate part of the design. The output is yours to edit next quarter without needing to come back to us.
The twelve weeks after
Every pathway includes twelve weeks of CEO Circle Starter membership, which is there to hold the new rhythms in place while they're still new. Three things run through it.
- Access stays open. Your goals, artefacts, Business Brain and the capability library remain live.
- The plan gets reviewed. Your quarterly plan against a ninety-day scorecard, checking that the plan you made is still the plan you are working.
- The rhythm continues. A ninety-day cycle, so priorities get revisited and refined before you set the next ones.
If you fall behind, the check-in is designed to catch it, because falling behind is ordinary and the point is to help before the gap widens.
After the twelve weeks
You choose. Continue on a full CEO Circle pathway, or carry the rhythm yourself with the system you've designed.
Alumni have another option. Lead with AI is the longer build program for owners whose foundations are in place and who want AI running properly inside the business.
When the answer is no, or not yet
If what you want is someone to implement the system for you, that sits outside this but we can make recommendations if that's what you want. We build the capability with you and hand it over. If you want it built rather than built with you, we will introduce you to a technology partner, and you will brief them from a position of knowing what you need.
If what you want is intensive, continuous access rather than three scheduled sessions and a chat thread, the cohort will feel thin. Working privately is the option built for that, and it is a different commitment in both time and cost.
Frequently asked questions
Do I lose access to everything when the program ends?
No. Anything you downloaded or built in your own storage is permanent. Platform and capability library access runs through the twelve weeks of CEO Circle Starter and continues while you remain a member.
How much coaching is included?
Three thirty-minute one-to-one sessions on the Structured pathway, plus group chat access to your coach and written feedback on your key outputs. Self-Guided includes a thirty-minute diagnostic debrief, with coaching addable whenever you want it.
Is there an alumni community?
The CEO Circle is where continuing owners gather, and every pathway includes twelve weeks of it.
What if I want more support than that?
Working privately is delivered around your business with direct access to your coach, a facilitated team session and a thirty-day adoption check afterwards.
What if I miss part of the program and need support catching up?
The workshops are recorded and your coach adjusts the pace with you. What if I cannot attend every session? sets out how catching up works.
