90-minute session | $1.5k

Decision Pressure Test

A focused check-in before you commit to structure, strategy, or deeper analysis.

90-minute working session + 72-hour follow-up memo. Fixed-fee. No retainers.

This session is a short, time-bound check to ensure you aren’t overlooking a key constraint before you make a consequential commitment.

In one 90-minute working call, we isolate what’s actually blocking progress and produce a concise 72-hour review memo, not a long strategy plan.

This Solves:
 (When You Already Feel)

1. Things feel harder than they should
 

  • Multiple priorities compete, and no one agrees which lever moves the business fastest
     

  • Decisions get delayed because inputs, metrics, and trade-offs are unclear
     

  • Teams execute tactics before alignment, burning energy without outcomes
     

  • Board or investors demanding clarity on “what’s next” and “who owns it”

2. You keep circling the same issues
 

  • Strategic conversations end in slides, not action
     

  • Leaders revisit the same problem every quarter
     

  • Cross-functional misalignment drains velocity
     

  • Discussions tend to stall or loop without resolution

This is often the moment when leaders want clarity before committing — not another plan or initiative.

Best suited for:

Founders, CEOs, COOs, & CPOs in Scaling Organizations

Scaling Organizations - 50–1000 FTE

Most Useful When:

  • You’re about to endorse a hire, restructure, or plan and want a second set of eyes
     

  • Decisions are delayed for lack of clarity on the real constraint
     

  • You’ve tried fixes and things still feel stuck
     

  • You sense risk but can’t yet diagnose why

Outcomes

Each Intensive yields concrete outputs, clarity, ownership, and action within one week.
