Who it's for

For the leader who is great at the job and done depending on it.

You've spent 20+ years getting very good at what you do. This Sprint shows you how to turn that into options, more income independence and more personal freedom.

✓

People already come to you for answers

You have deep expertise that colleagues and customers rely on every week.

✓

One decision could change your income

A reorg, a new boss, or a bad quarter, and none of it is yours to control.

✓

You've outgrown your role

You're ready to level up, and you want to be sure the next move is the right one.

✓

You want options

A bigger role, a better company, income between roles, or clients of your own.

✕

It isn't for you if you want the job handed to you, or you want it by Friday. The Sprint is three hours of real work on your own material.

What you'll leave with

Three things you'll have by Thursday night.

Clarity

A clear read on your mismatch

Why the skills that got you here stopped moving you forward, and what to do about it.

Your asset

The first draft of your value proposition

One sentence that says what you're worth and to whom. Your 20 years are the product. This is how you explain it.

Your move

Your lane and your next step

Move up, move on, bridge a gap, or build your own. You'll know which lane fits you now and what to do first.

The three nights

One hour a night. Real work each time.

Every session is live on Zoom at 8:00pm ET / 5:00pm PT.

Night 1Tue, Nov 178:00pm ET

The Mismatch

See exactly where you stand. We name the gap between how you work today and what the next level pays for, using your LDNA results if you've taken it. (The LDNA Assessment is free and takes about 6 minutes.)

VIPs: your Brand Assessment arrives before tonight
Night 2Wed, Nov 188:00pm ET

Your Value Proposition

Start writing it. You'll turn your experience into a clear statement of the problem you solve, who has it, and what it's worth to them.

Members

Real members, real moves.

Matt
MattAll four lanes

Two doors closed in one week. He had already built a practice, so he took the role he wanted and kept building, said no when he needed to, and landed higher. The no was his leverage.

Daniel
DanielLane one, move up

Came to build a consulting practice. With the confidence of knowing he could build his own thing, he showed up differently at work. His company promoted him three times.

Justin
JustinLane four, built his own

He came from the ECA knowing he didn't want to stay in corporate, so he resigned to build his own practice. He has successfully built a consulting business of his own, working with some of the organizations he used to be employed by, but as a consultant on the outside. He knows he could go back anytime he wants to.

Elizabeth
ElizabethLane two and three

She grew in her career from the support from VM, then when a huge setback that wasn't her fault took place, we were there for her through it all, and knowing she could continue to build her career or build a new business gave her peace of mind that things were going to work out alright.

Tom Cox
Your guide

Tom Cox, founder of Vertical Motion

Tom spent 30 years in aerospace and defense, 15 of them in executive leadership, and closed about $1.5B in B2B and government sales before he started coaching leaders full time. Since then he has coached senior managers, directors, and executives through the moment when being great at the job stops being enough.

He is the author of The Executive Career Handbook. In the Sprint he teaches live, takes your questions, and works through real examples from the room.

Questions

Before you register

Do I have to want to leave my job?

No. Many people in the room want a promotion or a better role. The work you do in the Sprint gives you more options in whatever lane you choose.

What if I can't make all three nights live?

Come to as many as you can. Each night is recorded, and the replays stay up through Sunday, Nov 22, so you can catch up before the next session. VIPs keep the recordings.

How much time does it take outside the three nights?

None is required. The work happens live, inside the hour, in your workbook. VIPs also fill in a short questionnaire (about 10 minutes) by Nov 15 so Tom can build their assessment.

I haven't taken the LDNA. Can I still join?

Yes. The LDNA is optional. If you want your results for Night 1, take it free here.

Will my employer know?

No. Your registration and your work stay with us, and you can join from any device with your camera off if you prefer.

What do I get with VIP?

A Customized Individual Brand Assessment built from your LDNA, LinkedIn and resume before Night 1, plus two small-group sessions with Tom at 7:30pm ET before Nights 2 and 3, and the recordings to keep. It's capped at 30 seats. It's the best option if you want your own situation looked at.

Three nights from now, you'll know what you're worth and what to do about it.

Nov 17, 18 and 19 at 8:00pm ET, live on Zoom with Tom Cox. $97, or $297 for VIP.
