$5,500
February - July 2026
Limited to 12 Participants 10 spots remaining
You’re Not Broken
Traditional leadership development isn't built for how neurodivergent brains work.
You've been trying to fit into a mold that wasn't made for you – and it's exhausting.
The constant masking. The executive function gymnastics. The overthinking every interaction. That's not a personal failing. That's the wrong framework.
Your differences aren't obstacles to overcome—they're competitive advantages waiting to be leveraged:
Your ability to see patterns others miss
Your systems thinking and architectural mindset
Your hyperfocus when properly channeled
Your unconventional problem-solving approaches
You don't need to change who you are. You need to learn how to translate your neurotype into leadership impact.
What You’ll Get:
Full Hogan Assessment suite ($2,000 value) - Map your cognitive and leadership patterns
6 monthly cohort sessions with 11 other Director+ neurodivergent leaders
3 private 1:1 coaching sessions for your specific challenges
Proprietary frameworks - MVR, Choice Architecture, SPARK (not available anywhere else)
Trusted peer network who understand your experience without explanation
Digital toolkit with templates, resources, and ongoing Slack community access
Is This Right for You?
This cohort is designed for:
Director+ neurodivergent executives (ADHD, autism, etc.)
Leaders ready to invest 6 months in their development
Those who value peer learning alongside individual coaching
Executives tired of masking who want sustainable leadership frameworks
This is NOT for you if:
You're looking for quick fixes or surface-level tips
You're below Director level (we maintain cohort peer quality)
You want therapy (this is coaching, not clinical support)
You're not willing to do the work between sessions
The Only Program That Gives You Both
Cohort Learning
Peer insights from Director+ neurodivergent leaders
Shared experiences at your level
Real-time problem-solving
Lasting professional network
1:1 Coaching
Personalized support for your specific challenges
Private Hogan debrief
Individual goal-setting
Confidential processing space
Because your neurodivergence is unique, but you’re not alone in navigating it
