MIND
Aug 1 – Sep 6 · 6 weeks
Master Your Mind
Every leader shapes the world around them from the world within them. In this block, you turn towards the inner landscape: the assumptions, habits of thought, and patterns of perception that have been running underneath your leadership unexamined. You will understand how your thinking has been forming your life and learn to take deliberate control of the ground you grow from.
- Understand the mental frameworks shaping your decisions
- Develop a personal practice of directed, intentional thinking
- Identify and interrupt thought patterns that limit your leadership
- Build the inner stability that makes outer consistency possible
PURPOSE
Sep 14 – Oct 18 · 5 weeks
Live On Purpose
Most leaders know what they do. Fewer know why, at the deepest level, they do it. This block takes you through a process of design tracing: mapping your gifts, your passions, and the specific contribution you were built to make. You will stop guessing what you are for and begin living in alignment with it.
- Identify your core design: gifts, values, and calling
- Articulate a clear, honest personal mission
- Align your leadership role with your deeper purpose
- Lead from conviction rather than expectation
LEADERSHIP
Oct 26 – Nov 29 · 5 weeks + closing
Lead Diligently
Formation becomes leadership when it meets the real world. In this block, you apply everything from blocks one and two to your specific context. You will lead differently, not harder, but from a clearer foundation. Sober about the work. Grounded in your gifts. Consistent in a way that is sustainable because it is rooted.
- Apply formed character to real leadership challenges
- Build sustainable practices of diligent, consistent leadership
- Lead with a sober self-awareness that serves those you lead
- Finish strong and know what comes next
How It Works
A rhythm you can build your life around.
Every week has the same three-part structure. The familiarity is intentional. When you are not thinking about what comes next, you can actually sit with what is in front of you.
Monday – Tuesday
Personal
Private, guided work. Journal prompts, reading, and personal practice, at your own pace.
Each week opens with personal engagement material. You do this alone, at your pace. It is designed to be unhurried.
Wednesday – Thursday
Small Group
A live video call with a small group of 5–7 leaders. Selected weeks only.
Not every week has a group call. When it does, it is because the content specifically calls for shared processing. The conversations are structured, not free-form.
Saturday
Community
The full cohort together. Teaching, practice, and communal formation every week.
This is the heartbeat of the programme. Every Saturday, the whole cohort gathers online. Michael teaches live over video, and the community practises together.
