Leadership Alignment Accelerator
– 6 week intensive for CEOs, Founders, Leaders
⚠️ Book now, the last course sold out within 2 weeks – 6 of 10 places still available.
You’re leading. But it’s getting heavy.
The business is growing. The team’s expanding.
And somehow, you’re carrying more – pressure, decisions, noise.
You used to love leading. Now, it feels like firefighting.
You’re still performing, but it’s costing you focus, energy, and connection.
You tell yourself, “I just need to get through this quarter.” But deep down, you know something’s off.
You’ve lost the clarity that once made you unstoppable.
That’s where our Leadership Alignment Accelerator comes in.
In 6 weeks, you’ll transform from firefighting to leading with strategic clarity. Your team will finally be aligned. Your decisions will be faster and cleaner. And you’ll have the energy to actually enjoy leading again.
“I’ve been where you are. Leading a growing team while feeling increasingly disconnected from why I started.
Trying to hold it all together – the vision, the people, the pressure – while quietly wondering if I’ve lost the spark that got me here.
This programme is what I wish I’d had back then. A space to pause, get honest, and realign.
To reconnect with purpose, rebuild confidence, and lead without burning out.
It’s not about fixing you, it’s about helping you remember who you are when you lead at your best.”
What It Is
A 6-week leadership accelerator for CEO, Founders, Directors, VPs who want to lead with clarity again – without burning out in the process.
This isn’t another training programme. It’s a reset – the integration layer between awareness and action.
You already know what’s not working:
- The endless busyness.
- The team tension.
- The creeping self-doubt.
In this Accelerator, we fix it – together, in real time.
Through focused coaching, practical frameworks, and honest reflection, you’ll rebuild the habits and mindset that make you a calm, confident, and effective leader again.
And if you think you don’t have one hour per week to transform how you lead? Just count the hours spent in unproductive meetings. This is the investment that makes everything else work better. See my guarantee at the end!
Who It’s For
- CEOs and Founders juggling growth, people, and purpose.
- Senior leaders and sales directors / VPs feeling stretched or out of sync.
- High achievers who look composed but feel flat.
- Executives who want to reconnect with why they lead, not just how.
If you’re driven, self-aware, and tired of running on adrenaline – this is for you.
“I attended one of Volker’s masterclasses and learned something I could use with my senior leadership team the very next day. It gave me a clear way to take ownership and finally understand where our misalignment was coming from. Simple. Practical. Immediately useful.”
Jon Bailey, CEO, Precision Proco
“Attending Volker’s masterclasses has been such a game-changer for me. The sessions are practical, engaging, and packed with insights I could apply right away. I left feeling more confident and inspired – highly recommend!”
Sarah Lawson Johnston, MD EMEA, Vudoo

We’ll build habits that protect your energy and keep you grounded – so growth doesn’t come at your expense.
Burnout rates drop significantly, you will lead from your authentic self again.
What You’ll Walk Away With
By the end of 6 weeks, you’ll:
- Lead with calm authority and confidence.
You’ll stop reacting from stress and start responding with clarity.
This creates better strategic focus, smarter decisions, and cost savings through cleaner execution and resource allocation. - Know what truly drives you (and what’s just noise).
You’ll lead from authenticity, not ego – building sustainable growth that aligns with your values and purpose. - Reconnect with your team and build alignment fast.
You’ll communicate with clarity and conviction. Expect stronger performance, improved sales results, and higher retention – because people follow leaders who are centred. - Make cleaner, faster decisions.
You’ll cut through confusion and lead with influence. Less hesitation, more momentum – the kind that moves the whole organisation forward. - Avoid burnout and reclaim your energy.
You’ll lead with balance – focused, grounded, and energised. No more running on adrenaline. You’ll create space to think, breathe, and lead from strength.
Before, you wake up already tense – phone buzzing, Slack overflowing, mind racing before coffee.
You jump straight into firefighting, juggling people, projects, and problems that never quite settle.
The team means well, but it feels like herding cats – everyone busy, no one aligned. Babysitting.
After, you start the day clear-headed.
You know what matters, and your team does too. You work from intention.
Meetings run themselves, decisions land faster, and you finally feel like the leader – not the bottleneck.
