Group Programs for Political and Civic Leaders
Some of the most powerful leadership development happens in community — with peers who understand the specific pressures of the work, going through the same hard things at the same time. Our group programs create that container.
We offer two formats:
Format 1: Organizational Team Coaching
What It Is
A 6-month coaching engagement for a leadership team within a single organization — a state party leadership team, a nonprofit senior team, a campaign's core staff, or a founding team building a new civic venture. We work with the team as a unit: building shared language, improving how decisions get made, strengthening trust, and aligning around what actually matters.
Who It's For
State party executive leadership teams
Nonprofit and civic organization senior teams
Campaign leadership teams mid-cycle or between cycles
Founding teams of new political and civic ventures
Boards navigating transition or growth
What's Included
Initial organizational assessment and team survey
Bi-weekly team coaching sessions (90 minutes)
Individual check-ins with the executive director or lead as needed
Between-session support via email and short calls
Customized session design based on the team's specific challenges and goals
Closing assessment and forward planning session
Format Details
6 months | Custom session cadence based on organizational need
Team size: Up to 12 participants
Sessions held via Zoom or in person (travel may apply)
Pricing: Scoped individually — contact to discuss
Getting Started
Team coaching engagements begin with a 30-minute exploratory call to understand your team's situation and determine if this is the right fit.

Format 2: Peer Leadership Cohort
What It Is
A 6-month cohort for political and civic leaders from different organizations who are navigating similar transitions and challenges. You'll work alongside a small group of peers — state party leaders, campaign managers, nonprofit executives, and civic founders — in a confidential, structured environment designed for honest reflection and real progress.
Who It's For
State party leaders and senior staff
Campaign managers and senior campaign staff
Nonprofit and civic organization executives and directors
Founders launching new political and civic ventures
Leaders who want peer community as much as coaching structure
What's Included
Bi-weekly group sessions (90 minutes) with facilitated coaching and peer exchange
Two individual coaching sessions per participant over the 6 months
A structured curriculum covering leadership identity, decision-making, team dynamics, sustainability, and transitions
A private community channel for ongoing peer connection between sessions
Resource library and session materials
Format Details
6 months | 12 group sessions + 2 individual sessions
Cohort size: 8–12 participants
Sessions held via Zoom
Pricing: Contact for current cohort rates — sliding scale available

Lauren was instrumental in my development as a leader. Together, we worked on building a strong team and organizational culture that helped push our program to the next level! Whether we were navigating high-pressure partnership moments, working through team challenges, or making difficult decisions, Lauren had a way of grounding the work in purpose while making space for real growth - not just jumping from fire to fire.
