Impact Cohort - 168 Leadership Room
You don't need another meeting. You need another room.
Over the years, we've noticed something across organizations that
serve young people.
Leaders gather. Programs run. Calendars stay full.
But intentional space to talk honestly about leading the
organization — that's rare.
Retention. Staff development. Parent expectations. Growth. Burnout.
If you're a director, owner, or lead instructor feeling the weight of
leading both your people and your program — this is your room.
What is the 168 Leadership Room -
A 6-month Leadership & Culture Accelerator for serious leaders committed to building stronger leadership inside their organizations.
This is a confidential, structured, facilitated environment where leaders:
-
Talk about retention honestly
-
Admit staff and team struggles
-
Share parent and community challenges
-
Compare systems that work
-
Learn from each other's mistakes
-
Align vision and culture
-
Strengthen their leadership pipeline
This is not a conference.
Not a workshop.
Not another surface-level discussion.
➡️ It's a Leadership Reset.
