One-on-One Work

The engagement begins with a diagnostic conversation — typically 60 to 90 minutes — focused on identifying the specific structural gap between where you are and what the next level requires. This is not a discovery call in the sales sense. It’s a working conversation that produces a useful read regardless of whether we work together afterward.

If the fit is clear from that conversation — meaning the problem is structural, you’re at the top of your org chart, and you’re ready to act on what the diagnosis reveals — we establish a working relationship. Sessions run two to three hours monthly. The cadence is deliberate: the work happens between sessions, not during them, and monthly spacing respects both your time and the pace at which structural change actually consolidates.

This is not for everyone. The people who get the most from this work already know that effort and information aren’t the constraint. They’re looking for a precise structural read and are willing to act on what it shows them, including when it’s uncomfortable.

If that’s your situation, the next step is a diagnostic conversation.

Jamie Birch, Founder and CEO of JEB Commerce

When I contacted Josef, I knew that the CEO I was to get my company to our first million dollar year was not the CEO I had to be to get us to 5 and 10 million dollars. I had to be different, I had to learn new skills, I had to manage my people differently and I had to manage our resources differently. His insight was tremendous. The real proof is in the profits and the comments from my employees. ‘You are the best CEO we’ve ever seen you be and the best CEO I’ve ever worked for.’ Comments like those abound since working with Josef.”

Chris Kay, Entrepreneur

“Josef is the best coach I have ever worked with. He is tough, insightful and will hold you accountable. If you’re ready for the truth, if you’re truly ready for the next level, I promise he will help take you there. In less than 9 months I achieved results with Josef that were way beyond what I could have imagined. His tools and insights are invaluable part of my business and personal life. The bottom line: As a serial entrepreneur with 4 major business operations and a busy personal life, I need results and do not have time to mess around. I have worked with many coaches and consultants over the years, but none of them have come even close to producing the kinds of results Josef and I created.”

John Cheary, Founder & CEO, John Marshall Media, Inc.

Josef has made a significant contribution to my life. During my time with him he’s illuminated areas of myself that I wasn’t aware existed, helping me recognize issues that were holding me back and helping me discover ways to improve them. I’ll hold the lessons that he taught me for the rest of my life. I can’t recommend him enough.

Josef pushes my edge in a way that challenges me to be better. If I have blind spots or thinking that doesn’t serve me, I know Josef will help me see it. He gives me something I instinctively know I need to be my best.

Kim Kazak, CEO of Landforms

“Josef helped us to realize that we were in the wrong positions in our company and with his help we restructured our company and rebuilt something stronger. We are now more accountable, we take issues head-on and do not let them fester. We are more organized and are creating systems to streamline our company. Josef helped us to start a budget for the first time, developed a clear organizational chart, detailed position agreements, and goals for our company. We realized that we were the ones responsible for burning out our employees and creating the high turnover. It’s been a lot of work and I know there is a lot more work to do, but I would not go back for anything. Working with Josef has saved our company, made it stronger, and lifted a huge weight off of our shoulders.”
