1@2 — the room for the second chair.

    An executive program and private forum for the leaders who execute the vision.

    Everyone builds for the first chair — the books, the conferences, the coaching, the peer groups, all written for the person whose name is on the vision. Almost nothing is built for the person who executes it.

    1@2 is built for the executor.

    Who this is for

    Second-chair leaders, executive pastors, chiefs of staff, COOs, administrators, and trusted deputies. People responsible for building teams, strengthening culture, solving problems, and moving organizations forward without standing in the spotlight.

    Primarily but not exclusively ministry contexts — the pain is the same in any organization with a strong founder.

    "He built 1@2 because for most of those years he didn't have it. He had a phone, two or three people he trusted, and a lot of nights figuring it out alone. It worked. It cost more than it needed to."
