To unite founders for solidarity in the struggle, tools for the journey, and inspiration to reach higher together
Founders should not feel isolated. Personal development is best done in a dynamic learning community that includes peers navigating similar challenges.
Holistic development and integrated leaders require an investment in personal, professional and spiritual development.
The workplace puts too much emphasis on autonomy, efficiency and superficial metrics. Founders need a base camp to reinforce supplies, lock arms, and galvanize a purpose that will ensure the reach greater heights.
Our world moves fast, our focus is fragmented, and it can be hard to tell what’s real and what matters most. We need space to slow down, share best practices, and encourage each other to be better people in every sphere of life.
If Christian founders become better and wiser people, the organizations and communities they serve will flourish, Nashville will benefit, and their creative potential will be imbued with the hope of eternity.
Most peer groups screen for revenue, title, gender or headcount.
We ask only two questions:
Are you a Founder?
Are you a Christian?
The tax structure of your organization, your title or position, how many “exits” you’ve had, how much revenue you earned last year, or how many staff you’ve hired.
We really don’t care!
That you have a bold vision to add value for the greater good.
The founder’s journey, at its core, has two distinctive components:
Vision, the creativity to imagine what others can't.
Determination, the capacity to suffer more than others will to bring the vision to life.
Our peer-learning cohorts successfully curate friends, tools and inspiration to help you become a better builder.
