COHORTS
Four cohorts. Find your fit.
Groups meet weekly on Zoom. All times are Eastern.
Your cohort is confirmed after your application is reviewed.
Ruckus Makers love the room.
"Before joining, I was ready to quit. After just a few sessions, I had a clear vision and real momentum. I didn't just survive this year. I thrived."
"The other day, I got a high five from a teacher during a walk-through. She told me, 'We did it.' That 'we' includes me."
"I wanted to build a school where kids come every single day and they feel loved and cared for and seen and heard."
"Self-criticism was getting in the way. The mastermind experience is incredibly validating. It has grown my confidence."
FUNDING
Your district can pay for this.
Many members have asked and gotten a yes. The answer is no unless you ask. Title I and PD funds are common sources, and we handle quotes, POs and invoices.

Common questions.
Is this right for me if I'm already a strong leader?
Yes. The Mastermind is built for principals who are already leading well and know exactly where the ceiling is.
How much time does it take?
One hour of live coaching a week, plus about an hour for reading and the community. Two to three hours a week in all.
Which tier should I pick?
Start with The Room for the weekly cohort. Choose Off Campus to add two days together in July. Choose Front Row to add a Stage Call with Danny at each stage of your year.
What if I join mid-year?
Join any month. Your Welcome Call sets your baseline, and you step into the stage the calendar is in. If you join after January, your first May is a checkpoint, and your full review is the following May.
Does the Mastermind run in the summer?
Yes. The weekly room runs year-round, and Off Campus happens in July.
