I get sports leadership teams unstuck.
When your front office is dealing with stalled projects, competing priorities, or people who have stopped talking to each other, I run the working sessions, and you leave with decisions made and a plan everyone actually agreed to.
You'll book through Misfit Island, the parent company. Same person, same work.
Sound familiar?
You might need me if:
- A project has been "almost done" since last season.
- Two department heads are solving the same problem two different ways and neither one knows it.
- Everyone is waiting on a decision that nobody will make.
- Your last three leadership meetings ended exactly where they started.
What working with me looks like
No software platform. No six-month engagement. No 200-slide readout.
I talk to your people one on one, then get the right ones in a room together. I design and run the sessions myself. Most of the time the answer is already in the building. My job is to get it out of people's heads, onto the wall, and into a decision.
You walk away with the call made, the owner named, and the next step on the calendar. Then I leave, and the work keeps moving without me.
Start small
The Unstuck Session
A half day with your leadership team focused on one stalled project or one decision that keeps getting punted. Before we meet, your team takes my Find the Gap assessment and I run short one-on-one calls, so we walk in knowing exactly where things are jammed. I run the session, and you get a one-page summary of what was decided and who owns what.
Flat fee. No proposal process. If it works, we talk about what's next. If it doesn't, you're out a half day and you still got the decision made.
You'll book through Misfit Island, the parent company. Same person, same work.
Who I am
I'm Baxter. I've spent 20+ years inside growing companies doing research, design, and the unglamorous work of getting teams to actually operate together, with training from Nielsen Norman Group and Voltage Control along the way. Before that I worked in film and television, which taught me more about getting strong personalities pointed at the same goal than any certification did.
I also coach high school girls basketball in Colorado. I know what a locker room sounds like when it believes, and what it sounds like when it doesn't. Front offices aren't that different.
Not ready to book?
Take Find the Gap. It's a free 12-question assessment that shows you where your organization is stuck: clarity, alignment, execution, or momentum. You see your results immediately, no email required. If you want my take on them, I'll send you a short personal video, not a PDF.
