Leadership Operating Systems Lab

You’re not behind because you lack discipline.

You’re behind because your systems are broken.

The Leadership Systems Lab is an 8-week, in-person accelerator for executives, managers, and business owners who are done being the bottleneck in their work and life.

If this sounds familiar, this was built for you.

The Leadership Operating Systems Lab is a practical, in-person leadership development experience focused on installing systems that reduce cognitive load and make execution more reliable.

What Changes After the Leadership Systems Lab

By the end of this experience, you won’t just feel better organized — you’ll be operating differently.

• A fully installed Leadership Operating System that integrates work, home, and leadership responsibilities
• At least 8 hours a week reclaimed through clearer priorities, fewer decisions, and better workflows
• A single command center for tasks, notes, planning, and follow-through (no more scattered systems)
• Clear decision filters that make it easier to say no — without guilt or second-guessing
• AI-supported workflows that reduce admin, email overload, and planning time
• Home systems that stop draining your leadership energy before the workday even starts
• A physical Leadership Playbook you can reuse, refine, and even train others with
• A sustainment plan so this doesn’t fall apart when life gets busy again

This is not theory.

You will be building and installing systems in real time.

• You’re always running behind, even when you’re working long hours
• You carry everything in your head because nothing else feels reliable
• Your work systems don’t talk to each other — or to your home life
• You know you should be more organized, but every new tool just adds friction
• You’re the one people rely on… and it’s exhausting

This isn’t a motivation problem.
It’s an operational problem.

This is infrastructure, not motivation.

This Lab is not:

• 1:1 coaching
• Therapy or personal processing
• A productivity hack or motivation program
• A “do more” framework

• Weekly, in-person sessions
• Recordings available if a session is missed
• Practical tools and templates included

Location: Root & Rise Coworking – Waynesville, NC
60 S. Main St
Waynesville NC 28786

You'll get a memebership at Root & Rise for the duration of the Lab so you can attend sessions and have another place to work as you need.

Starts Monday, March 9, 2026

This lab is designed for:

• Executives and senior managers
• Business owners and entrepreneurs
• Practice leads and department heads
• Local leaders ready to operate at a higher level

You don’t need to be “bad at productivity.”
You just need systems that match the complexity of your life and role.

This lab is not for:

• People looking for motivation or accountability only
• Anyone unwilling to change how they currently operate
• Folks who want quick hacks without implementation
• People who don’t value their time

If you’re comfortable staying busy but scattered, this won’t be a fit.

• Duration: 8 weeks
• Format: Twice-weekly, in-person implementation sessions
• Location: Root & Rise Co-Working Space (Waynesville, NC)
• Access: 24/7 coworking membership for the full duration of the lab
• Community: Small, curated group of leaders focused on real change

Sessions are structured to build, test, and refine systems — not just talk about them.

• Identifying and closing your biggest time and energy leaks
• Designing your personal Leadership Operating System
• Calendar and decision frameworks that protect capacity
• AI tools that reduce admin and cognitive load
• Communication and follow-through systems
• Home operations that support — not sabotage — your work
• Removing yourself as the bottleneck
• Locking in sustainment so the systems stick

Full Price: $2,197

If you’re “too busy” to fix your systems, this is exactly why you need this lab.

This is the last time you should have to solve the same problems over and over.
