Who We Are
The High Achiever Manifesto
Our Belief
People Matter Most
Our Purpose
We exist to radically impact lives through the platform of work.
Our Vision
We're not just a business—we're a movement challenging the status quo of work on behalf of people.
The High Achiever Company was founded on a simple premise: "Poor leaders hurt people and great leaders change lives." Today, a massive leadership gap degrades both the emotional health of individuals and financial health of companies.
Our Mission
Change the nature of work by developing High Achiever Leaders, for the sake of the people they work with, the companies they work for, the families they love, and their own sanity.
Our Core Values
-
Purpose: Passion Over Paycheck
-
Growth: What we do is less important than who we are becoming in the process.
-
Service: We do what we do in service of people who love what we do.
-
51/49: Give more, Take less - The principle of value.
-
Live the Work: Our actions are evidence of our values
-
Honesty in Communication: Candid conversations rooted in respect.
-
Quality: “Good, is the new poor" - Do great work.
-
Accountability: Measured individual and collective progress.
Fun: Hard is good, but when it's no longer fun, we are no longer.
Our Thesis
Work was meant to unite people for mutual benefit—a structure of love and community. Yet today, many simply grind through their days in survival mode, viewing work as a necessary evil rather than a platform for impact.
We believe work should be more than a paycheck. It's a platform for creating lasting value and contributing to the greater good. Our goal is helping people shift from living by default to designing a life worth living.
Our Guiding Principle
The Principle of Value: You will be rewarded in direct proportion to your ability to add value in the marketplace.
Like gravity, this principle always works—either to your benefit or detriment. Our job is to help people understand how they add value, knowing there's a symbiotic relationship between value and reward.
Our Promise
As William Wallace said in Braveheart: "There's a difference between us. You think the people of this land exist to provide you with a position. I think your position exists to provide those people with freedom."
With brave hearts, we work to ensure people experience the freedom that comes from developing as High Achievers—those who deliver exceptional results with character, courage, and intent.
Godspeed—see you in the trenches.

High Achiever is built for executive leaders, high-potential talent, and high-growth organizations ready to move beyond surface-level fixes. If you’re done tolerating mediocre results and ready to lead with intent—we’re a fit.
We’re not life coaches. We’re leadership strategists who embed business systems, behavioral coaching, and cultural clarity. Our frameworks are built from decades of experience leading, coaching, and scaling high-performance teams. No fluff. Just results.
While our clients span SaaS, tech, healthcare, and finance, they all have one thing in common: they’re growth-driven and leadership-minded. We’re industry-agnostic but impact-obsessed.
Each session blends strategic insight with real-time problem solving. We focus on what matters most—whether it's a leadership blind spot, a team dynamic, or a high-stakes decision. You’ll leave with clarity and next steps.
Most clients engage weekly or bi-weekly to allow time for action and reflection. We adjust cadence based on your goals, availability, and urgency.
No. While we use proven frameworks, every engagement is tailored to your priorities—whether you’re preparing for a new role, scaling a team, or navigating organizational change.
It’s the combination of business acumen, behavioral insight, and unfiltered honesty. We don’t just ask good questions—we help you see blind spots, shift behavior, and lead with greater impact.
Coaching is forward-looking and performance-focused. We don’t do the work for you—we build your capacity to lead, solve, and execute at a higher level.
Absolutely. We connect personal growth to strategic metrics like team performance, cultural health, and revenue goals—so you can measure the ROI.
We’ll guide the agenda, but we encourage clients to bring current challenges or decisions to the table. The more real the conversation, the more impactful the session.
Both. We offer 1:1 executive coaching, cohort-based team programs, and leadership development systems tailored to your organization’s goals.
Most engagements are virtual to suit busy executive schedules. For strategic intensives, offsites, or culture transformation work, we offer in-person options.
Yes—and we approach it differently. Our Hiring High Achievers framework helps you attract, assess, and retain top talent by fixing root-cause issues in your leadership, culture, or process.
Start with a 30-minute discovery call. We’ll listen, assess where you’re at, and recommend a path tailored to your needs. No pressure—just clarity on what’s possible.
That’s exactly what the discovery call is for. It’s a chance to explore fit, ask questions, and decide if the timing, format, and focus are aligned with your goals.
