Ditch what isn't working & dial in
what matters most

Ditch your bottleneck habits, free up your time & transform your leadership
to transform your business.

Coming Very Soon — Get on the Wait List!

The Leadership Edit™️ is personalized toolkit 
to move you from juggling "everything" to confidently
dialing in what matters to grow your business sustainably.

Let's see, you want to grow your business — but you're already spread too thin to sustain things, even at the current size. It's one of the immutable laws of the start-up phase: Growing your team is more than just adding headcount to "business as usual."

And, if you keep doing business under "start-up phase" rules, you're going to drive that race car right off the cliff. 

Here's why: The habits that fueled your success as an early-stage business become the habits that bottleneck your business when you grow. 

Habits like: your hands in every project, endless pivots, scotch-taped systems, no clear way to track if you're on track, unclear roles..and very late nights.

So if working harder 24/7 was why you went into business, you're all set. 

If it's not, and you want relief and guidance, we can work together to up-level your leadership practices and ditch the bottleneck habits that will throttle sensible, sustainable growth. Because:

Leaders who scale don't do more, they do better.

Is The Leadership Edit for you, and is this the right time?

The best breakthroughs are the ones that hit at the right time and in the right minimally effective dose.
Here's how to know if this is for you, right now:

Is this for you? I’ve found the best fit and most- motivated people find themselves in one of three categories:

  • Business Owners & Founders who have woken up to the non-negotiable work of taking responsibility for their leadership habits.
  • Creatives & Contractors who want to share their gifts with the world but keep hitting burnout and overwhelm.
  • Entreprenuers & Early-Stage Operators who are curious to learn what leadership habits will need to change as they grow their businesses.

Is this the right time? Here's the timing that seems best for this kind of transformation:

  • When your small team is growing — and all eyes are looking to you.
  • When you can't seem to get out from under the crush of daily business to focus on what's really calling your name: impact, legacy-building, growth-plans...and other things like "a normal Tuesday night."
  • When it feels like there's an awful lot of activity in your business — but it still feels like you're only running-in-place.

Cultivate your leadership mindset, free up your time
& transform your business. 

Cultivate your leadership mindset, free up your time & transform

HOW IT WORKS

What can The Leadership Edit do for you?

The Leadership Edit is an on-demand workshop that helps you develop a blueprint for thinking & operating like a true leader in your business. It's designed to help you architect growth for your business, lead your team, and navigate around
the challenges you're bound to encounter as you grow.

⏏️ The Leadership, Practices & Mindset Diagnostic

Up first: assess and audit the current status of your mindset, team, decision-making,
planning cadence, delegation practices — and more. A scoring rubric will point you to where
you should focus first as you work to uplevel your leadership toolkit.

Next, take a deep-dive into these 3 areas:

1

Rethink How You Set
Your Goals

Founders who are serious about growth need to learn how to set goals effectively — to choose the projects that chain together to meet those goals — and to track progress against those goals. I'll show you how to integrate a powerful planning cycle into your business.

Topics: How You  Set Goals, Choose Projects, Track What Matters, and How (Often) You Change Your Mind

🗓️

2

Rethink How You Lead
Your Team

Many early-stage team cultures are simply an extension of the Founder's personality — but that is not quite the right recipe to grow. What is? Equity-centered business practices that de-center the founder and create a fair and focused culture for everyone to do their best. I'll help you shape yours.

Topics: The Bedrock of Team Culture, How to Delegate Work, How to Hold Everyone Accountable (Even Yourself)

Rethink How You Define
Your Challenges

Any tactic in the book can be trumped by mindset. And there is a specific mindset shift that can move you from feeling held hostage by your own business to swiftly and confidently shaping how your team moves forward on your priority projects.

Topics: How to Take Ownership, How to Scope Challenges, Where to Look for the Solutions

🧗🏻‍♀️

Each section will help you unpack what's not optimized in your current team and business,
& spark ways to think differently about how you show up for everyday challenges.

⏩ Build Your Own Blueprint

This isn't a listening exercise. Knowledge is nothing if you don't put it into action.
I walk you through creating your blueprint to work differently in your business.
(And you can jump on a call with me to double-check your strategy.)

Do-It-Yourself
(with or without a Hotseat)

The Leadership Edit is a free-standing DIY toolkit designed to give you the insights and tools for you to develop the leadership strategy you need to reclaim your time and create the culture you need to grow (sustainably).

Whether you want to build-it-yourself OR whether you want my eyes on your plans — I've got you covered.

Hi, I'm Karen Sergeant.

I'm an advisory COO to owners and founders who are at the helm of a growing business. 

I created The Leadership Edit™️ because I saw many owners struggle with similar mindset challenges and habit changes — all natural and normal growing-points — NOT character-flaws!

Since I have guided many clients through the same transition, I knew I could condense the wisdom into a digestible package that could help anyone who was stuck in that pain-point — and willing to take responsibility for their own leadership habits. 

Karen Sergeant - Problem Solver

The drum that I beat? Growing pains are part of the growth process — but you don't have to get stuck there. 

You’re in the right place if you need your mindset & habits to mature alongside your business growth — and you’re ready to change the narrative around team-building towards a culture of consent and accountability. 

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Are You Wondering…

Is this just AI-generated content I could find elsewhere or generate myself?

Listen, I welcome our bot overlords and they will get no trouble from me. But I created The Leadership Edit based on my 10+ years of experience coaching founders and owners through real bottlenecks and roadblocks — not by pasting in a prompt and adjusting the sarcasm. 

No AI was used in any part the offer, the diagnostic, sales page, advice, or anywhere else. Just me and my hard-worn expertise (and razor-sharp wit).

What exactly is included?

Both versions contain the same material: a diagnostic quiz for you to assess what's currently happening in your leadership habits and your business; 5 audio lessons that cover the quiz, the 3 modules and creating your leadership blueprint; 3 tools (one per module) to use for an even deeper understanding of your leadership habits and the impact they have on your business. You have lifetime access to all the information. The tier that includes the private hotseat includes a link to my calendar to book a 1 hr call with me, when you're ready. You will need to book the call within 6 months of purchase.

What do we do during the 1:1 hotseat?

When you purchase the 1:1 version, you will receive a link to book on to my calendar, which you can book at any point in your process. Most folks finish the content, build out their blueprints and then ask me to have a look. You do you, though. I'm happy to hotseat any topic covered in The Edit, which you can present to me when we start the call.

Will I ever lose access to this info?

No. Your access isn't timed or restricted. You will also automatically get access to any new content I produce if I update the course in the future.

Why the audio format?

Audio format means you can listen anywhere: at your computer or through your phone on-the-go, via your favorite podcast app. I promise you won't miss my face in a tiny circle, nor my attempt at slide-making. I focus on making transforming content, you focus on absorbing it. Deal?
