Without Losing Your Mind,
Even If You Feel STUCK Today
Online Learning, Virtual Community, Coaching, Intensives
FEELING EQUIPPED TO MANAGE YOUR BUSINESS AS IT GROWS?
Starting a business is easy. Making it successful is not. Most of us start our business from our passion. But we quickly discover there are things about running our business that SURPRISE us. We may feel anxious or insecure about our abilities to manage. How do you know what's most important, and whether it requires bringing in an expert? CEO School equips you to make the right decisions for your business.
SERIOUS ABOUT YOUR SUCCESS?
Through a combination of skill-building, virtual live coaching, and peer-mentoring, plus in-person intensives for up-close personal attention, you can take the reins and feel CONFIDENT in your abilities to manage your business operations. And it's totally economical, even if you can't afford your own private business coach yet.

At CEO School, you will learn the skills you need to manage the RIGHT business issues, led by a Master Business Coach with a faculty of other badass women experts.

Is CEO School Right for You?
Do you recognize yourself in any of these statements?
WHO WILL THRIVE IN CEO SCHOOL
- I survived startup but I can’t seem to get traction to make it “over the hump.”
- There is so much to do, I can’t seem to make any headway. Everything feels like a priority!
- I feel lonely, and uncertain if I’m on the right track.
- I’m feeling “stuck.” And overwhelmed. I don't know which way to turn with so much on my plate.
- I’m worried that I’ve missed the boat on specific skills to run my business well, and I’m frankly embarrassed.
- I learn best in a group, and from “doing,” rather than just reading.
WHO WILL NOT. . .
- I am satisfied with the way my business is running today. I don't want it to grow any more.
- I don't care if technology and additional skills would help my company grow and expand. I hate tech.
- I can do everything myself...
- I know what I need to do in my business; I'm just not doing it.
- My Advisory Council is already providing me the feedback and support I need.
- I don't have time to work ON my business; I'm too busy working IN my business.


A Learning Community
Dedicated to Your Success

Get a Grip on Your Business!
Overwhelm is the most common complaint of business owners. Which problems to tackle first, how to prioritize, time management best practices, effective decision-making...CEO School covers all this and so much more.

Increase Your Success
Save time and $$ by creating and testing your business model with a Minimum Viable Product, Value Proposition, and Customer Personas. NO OTHER PROGRAM TEACHES THIS.

Serious About Business
CEO School may not be a "school" in the conventional sense, but we are serious about our businesses. At the same time, we enjoy the camaraderie of like-minded women, even with an occasional glass of vino!

Skills That Last a Lifetime
Foundations are essential to build and grow every business. You will gain planning skills for every stage of your business, including long-range strategic planning and operational planning.

Access to Experts
NO ONE is an expert at everything. We introduce proven, talented women experts to help you delve deeper into legal matters, marketing, finance, all the issues that can create headaches.
Welcome, fellow Entrepreneurs!
When I started my business 12 years ago, even my experiences of having been a Fortune 500 corporate executive (Time Warner & WebMD) and having attended one of the top business schools in the US didn’t prepare me for the challenges I was about to encounter as a business owner.
And I couldn’t find a single place to learn what I needed to know.
A lot of the online offerings were “touchy-feely” and didn’t provide practical business skills that I could use. Much of them were trying to sell me something that I really didn’t need or want.
And none of it attracted my kind of serious business-minded women who — don’t get me wrong! — LOVE to have fun but who really want to buckle down and work, too. And find ways for work to BE fun!
So I built CEO School for Women™.
We’ve operated in-person since 2014. The skills members gained and relationships they formed have had material impacts on their businesses, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars growth and savings. And deep relationships have formed.
Now, we're moving online.
The time challenges of busy women owners convinced me to break our learning modules into “bite-sized chunks,” and make it 24/7 time-accessible for when YOU have the time.
Technology has some cool solutions that we will be using! Multiple “touches” during the month make for an interactive experience that has immediate impact as you implement new learnings
You'll be part of a confidential community of wise women entrepreneurs from whom you'll learn and share your wisdom. And you'll get the benefit of being guided by a business advisor and coach, without the expense.
CEO School for Women™ is what I needed when I embarked on my entrepreneurial journey. I'm confident you’ll find something here that you’re looking for, too.
You don't have to go it alone!

"My business grew from just myself to a team of 6 people in less than year, and having the support of other women who were going through the same thing made ALL the difference. I could let my guard down, ask for help, and have a circle of women who truly understood the effort it takes to succeed. Thank you, Nancy, for coaching me on how to work ON my business and not only IN it."
