JOIN THE SKILLED TRADES LEADERSHIP GUILD

Where Trades Owners Become Future Ready

The Skilled Trades Leadership Guild is a private, ongoing membership for owners and senior leaders of skilled trades companies who carry the weight of the business.

It works like the trades mastery journey you already know: apprentice, journeyperson, master. This one is built for the leadership side of the business.

THE GUILD ISN'T FOR EVERYONE.

WHO IT'S FOR:

The Guild is for trades company owners and senior leaders who know the next few years will test them. They want to protect their margins, their people and the business they built, and be ready for what's coming.

IT'S NOT FOR YOU IF:

You aren't willing to look in the mirror and honestly get better at leading.

You're not willing to look honestly at how your company actually runs and make it better.

The Guild's Member Advisors carry a limited number of members. They are hands-on, experienced, legally backed and ready to help you operationalize.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE GUILD

Guided by a Member Advisor

An experienced operator who knows your situation will guide you through the program, keep you accountable and bring in the right expert advisors to solve your problems at the right time.

The Senior Member Advisory Board

Specialists in people, HR, systems, training and project management are ready when you need them. When you're putting out fires, pick up the phone and the right advisor will help you steer through.

The Brief

You'll have working sessions with your Member Advisor every two weeks. A Command Brief arrives by text beforehand, so you're ready to execute on the work you've decided to do.

A Peer Network

Grow your leadership skills alongside other trades owners facing the same pressures: hiring, margins, growth and succession. Learn from each other in a private room, with no competitors' sales pitches.

FROM YOUR FELLOW BUSINESS MANAGERS

WHY THE GUILD WAS CREATED

After years of consulting for skilled trades companies, this exclusive membership and peer network was created to systematically support owners through the challenges every trades business faces: finding and keeping good people, protecting margins and growing without burning out.

Services are tried and tested. Training and recommendations are based on what works in the trades.

We understand the trades because we've worked in and with them for years. We know what works and what doesn't.

YOUR TEAM IS COUNTING ON YOU.

You don't have to learn how to lead all alone.
