Hey there, Reader,

I’ve got two big updates for you:

  1. I’m unveiling my brand-new 1:1 Coaching site, which is designed to help leaders like you make high-impact decisions and drive real growth.
  2. Later this month, I’m opening 2 out of 5 seats in my exclusive coaching program. I only work with 5 leaders at a time to provide focused, personalized attention.

But before you even check out the site, I want to give you something practical you can use right now.

Because here’s the reality: as a leader, every decision you make is either pushing you forward or holding you back.

And some of those decisions? They have six-figure consequences—impacting your bottom line, shaping your team’s culture, and opening (or closing) future opportunities.

Let me give you a few quick examples:

  1. You hire the wrong leader.
    A bad hire at the senior level tanks performance and morale. Between salary, hiring costs, and lost productivity, you're out $260K+.
  2. You lose a top performer.
    Poor management or lack of growth pushes them out. Recruiting, training, and lost output set you back $130K+.
  3. You delay a key decision.
    A stalled project costs momentum and revenue. Missed opportunities, extra costs, and wasted time add up to $280K+.

Small choices. Huge consequences.

That’s why I want to share three strategies to help you make better, faster, and more confident decisions, starting today.


3 Strategies to Amplify Your 6-Figure Decisions

1. Define Success with Clarity

The fastest way to make a poor decision? Not knowing exactly what you’re aiming for.

Instead of vague goals like “improve revenue” or “build a better culture,” define clear, measurable outcomes:


Better: “Increase quarterly revenue by 10%.”
Stronger: “Hire two A-players by May.”
More Effective: “Reduce employee turnover by 15% in six months.”

When you quantify success, every decision becomes simpler—because you’ll know whether it moves you toward or away from your goal.

2. Ask the Ripple-Effect Question

Every decision has consequences—some obvious, some unexpected.

Before making a call, ask yourself:

  • “If I choose this path, what downstream impact will it have on my team, clients, or operations?”
  • “What will this decision solve today? What will it create tomorrow?”
  • “Could this choice unintentionally cause friction or resistance?”

Great leaders don’t just solve immediate problems.

They anticipate second-and third-order effects—ensuring today’s fix doesn’t become tomorrow’s headache.

3. Build a Decision-Making Cadence

Reactive decision-making leads to inconsistency, confusion, and wasted time.

The best leaders follow a structured rhythm for evaluating past decisions and planning ahead:

Weekly: Quick check-ins to assess priorities and roadblocks.
Monthly: Review key metrics and refine your approach.
Quarterly: Deep dive into performance trends, team feedback, and long-term strategy.

When you set aside time to reflect, you’ll avoid rushed, gut-reaction decisions and ensure every move is intentional, aligned, and well-calculated.


So, What’s Next?

If those three strategies got your wheels turning, now’s the perfect time to turn insight into action.

I’ve seen countless leaders stall out because they know what to do but never seize the moment to do it.

Here’s your chance to break that cycle:

  • Take a Look at the New Site
    Get a closer feel for how I work with leaders who refuse to settle for “business as usual.”
  • Grab One of the 2 Spots
    I work with just 5 leaders at any time—intensely, personally, and with real accountability. With 2 openings coming up, one of them could be yours.
  • Change Your Trajectory
    Don’t let uncertainty or a packed calendar hold you back. If you’re itching to make better, faster decisions and watch your organization thrive, now is your moment.

Because the real difference between where you are and where you want to be often comes down to the right support at the right time. This could be that moment.

Here’s to your next big leap,
