One Day, In-Person Intensive

Unleashed

UNLEASHED is about claiming authorship of your life — moving from being driven by personal history, circumstances, habits, and external expectations to deliberately designing direction, standards, and execution. In practice, this means defining clear goals — and building structures to actually achieve them.

When effort does not lead anywhere

Many capable people work hard for years and still feel stuck.

They are busy, responsible, and often successful by external standards — yet the things that matter most never quite move. Goals remain vague or postponed. Priorities are overridden by urgency. Days get filled by demands, not direction. Effort is real. Discipline is real. Progress is not.

Abstract colorful swirls

Over time, a specific frustration sets in: running ever harder just to stand still — pulled by external demands, not priorities — while what truly matters never advances. Not dramatic failure, but the quiet erosion of agency. Always responding. Rarely authoring. Knowing you could do more — but not knowing where to place the force so it actually changes anything.

UNLEASHED was built to address exactly this.

Refined Over More Than 20 Years of Executive Teaching

UNLEASHED draws on work I developed and delivered in demanding Executive MBA and Executive Education environments. The core elements of this program were refined in leadership and self-management courses I taught across the globe, including:

UKUniversity of Liverpool
GermanyEBS University
ChinaXi'an Jiaotong–Liverpool University
PolandCracow University of Economics
ChinaTongji University
NetherlandsTHNK School of Creative Leadership

What held up across cultures, industries, and seniority levels was kept. What failed under pressure was discarded. UNLEASHED distills what consistently worked into one focused, in-person day.

The Journey

Six phases that transform how you approach goals and execution

1

Phase 1 — Priming

You reset how goals actually work: what makes them meaningful, realistic, demanding, and worth committing to — and why most goal-setting fails before it even starts.

2

Phase 2 — Clarity

You uncover and map your short- and long-term goal landscape, separating what truly matters to you from inherited expectations, habits, and noise.

3

Phase 3 — Focus

You choose and formulate the single primary goal you will work on — calibrated in scope, ambition, and timing — instead of trying to move everything at once.

4

Phase 4 — Derailers

You identify why execution breaks down in your specific case: resistance, avoidance, overload, conflicting priorities, or hidden constraints — without blame or self-judgment.

5

Phase 5 — Execution

You design execution structures and rules that fit how you actually operate, neutralize your personal derailers, and translate intention into daily action that holds.

6

Phase 6 — Transfer

You turn what you learned into a repeatable process, so you can apply the same logic to future goals — without starting from scratch again.

The Principle Behind the Process

At its core, UNLEASHED is about ownership: of your direction, your effort, and the outcomes of your life.

Not being driven by urgency, habit, history, or expectation — but choosing deliberately what you move toward.

Sometimes the lack of ownership is obvious: weight that does not come off, projects that never finish, goals that collapse under daily pressure.

Sometimes it is quieter: knowing what you truly want — and still not moving toward it.

Goals are not the end point. They are the instrument — the means by which what matters internally is translated into reality. That can mean very concrete things: health, money, time, or finally following through on your dreams.

And meaningful goals almost always demand personal change.

That is why UNLEASHED is not just about goal setting.

It is about making personal change happen — so effort finally produces results.

The Monday Test — Outcomes of the program

What is different when you wake up the day after UNLEASHED?

A full overview of your goal landscape

Clarity about what you want to work on first — and what can wait

A personalized execution plan that addresses your specific derailers and failure modes

A clear understanding of why this hasn't worked before in your life

Strategies to stop self-sabotage

Tools to dissolve procrastination without relying on willpower alone

The feeling of finally moving towards what matters to you — instead of circling

Clarity about exactly what to do on Monday — and a template you can reuse for the rest of your life

To support follow-through, participants are placed in small accountability groups of 3–4 people. These groups meet independently (weekly or bi-weekly) to stay aligned, report progress, and sustain momentum after the day is over.

You come for a goal. You leave with the ability to make personal change happen — oriented, equipped, and finally moving forward.

Results that hacks haven't delivered — and never will.

A Note on Fit

You should not attend if

  • ... you believe that a few hacks could lead to sustainable change

  • ... you want different outcomes while continuing to do what you have always done

  • ... you are not ready to take responsibility for changing the outcomes in your life

  • ... you think a few YouTube videos could replace a structured learning journey

  • ... you are not willing to fully engage with the exercises and materials

  • ... you are primarily looking for entertainment or motivation without wanting to do the underlying work

If, on the other hand, you are ready to take responsibility, engage fully, do the work required to change how you live and execute — and have some fun along the way — you are exactly who this day is designed for.
