Workshops

Sharp sessions, sized to your time.

Ninety minutes on Zoom. A half-day in your conference room. A two-day intensive offsite. Custom-designed sessions on sales process, leadership development, and technology implementation, built for executives and teams who guard their calendars and need to ship change, not sit through decks.

The Format

Every workshop is built around the specific problem the team is actually trying to solve. The format flexes to fit: 90 minutes, two hours, a half-day, a full day, or a two-day intensive. In person or on Zoom. Your time is the constraint I design around. If your leadership team can only give me one sharp morning, the session is built for one sharp morning.

What stays the same: real frameworks the team can apply on Monday morning, deliverables that outlast the session, and Derek in the room facilitating the actual work rather than presenting slides at it.

Past workshops have covered technology implementation roadmaps for 200-person organizations, sales process design for B2B teams, leadership development for senior managers, and use case identification for individual executives and owners looking to upgrade their workflows.

Common Topics

What we build together.

  • 01Sales Process & Operations

    How your team actually closes deals, and how to make that process work without your top reps in the room. B2B sales engine design, pipeline architecture, tech-and-sales coordination.

  • 02Leadership Development

    How to lead the people who don't need to be managed. Frameworks for executives leading high-autonomy teams, founders building leadership benches, and managers stepping into bigger roles.

  • 03Technology Implementation

    Practical technology workflows that ship. Use case identification, tool selection, and the working sessions that take a team from 'we're behind' to 'we have these three workflows live by next quarter.'
