Leadership Coaching for Founders Scaling Real Businesses

Enter the Syncity Ascenders Into the Strategic Leaders Tournament

You’ve built the team.
Now it’s time to lead it like a coach, not a player.

Syncity Ascend is an executive coaching programme for founders, CEOs and leaders scaling fast.
It’s designed like a tournament so you don’t just learn how to lead, you practise, embed and win with it.

You’ll step into the role of Head Coach of the Syncity Ascenders a team built to test and develop your leadership over a season of challenges.

Because being a great founder doesn't make you a great leader.
And most leadership coaching doesn’t prepare you for what this next stage actually requires.

The 9 Sessions of the Strategic Leaders Tournament

What You’ll Learn, Shift, and Build - Week by Week

Match 1: Unburden

Take control. Create space. Step into the coach’s role.

1. UNPACK
You can’t coach if you’re still playing every position.
→ Step off the pitch and uncover where your time and energy are going.

2. SIMPLIFY
Growth means subtraction before addition.
→ Cut the noise and make space to lead.

3. DELEGATE
If you’re still doing the work, you’re not leading.
→ Build trust, clarity and ownership inside your team.

Match 2: Align

Set the direction. Build structure. Run the system.

4. VISION
You can’t win if you don’t know the race you’re in.
→ Define the real finish line for your season and make it visible to your team.

5. FRAMEWORK
Winning teams prepare, play and review with rhythm.
→ Use the 5D Agile Framework to turn strategy into action, every month.

6. TRUST
Great coaches trust their players because they’ve trained them right.
→ Replace micromanagement with a structure that creates accountability.

Match 3: Build

Keep momentum. Improve on purpose. Lead from the front.

7. BIG PICTURE
It’s not just about this season, it’s about the journey.
→ Show your team where the business is really heading.

8. ITERATE & IMPROVE
Great teams don’t stand still, they adapt.
→ Learn how to build feedback, AI and retros into your rhythm.

9. SUSTAIN
You’re not building a one-off win.
→ Lock in structure, rhythm, and performance that scales with you not through you.
