Career coaching built for marketing leaders in transition

Structured support and real peer accountability — from coaches who’ve held the role.

Our cohort model pairs you with former CMOs who have navigated multiple senior-level transitions themselves, and a small group of peers who understand the journey.

Why the cohort model

There are other options. Here’s why this one works better.

Each path has real limitations — not because of what it offers, but because of what it was never built to do. Here’s where the cohort is different.

Cost

A fraction of 1:1 executive coaching cost, with no drop in depth or rigor.

Pressure-testing

Your cohort peers give sharper feedback than one coach alone.

Network

These relationships often last years beyond the program.

Coached by former CMOs

No context-setting. Every session goes straight to what matters.

Structure that moves you

A six-session arc gives your search a clear sequence.

You’re not doing this alone

A CMO job search is one of the loneliest experiences there is.

Every coach is a former CMO

Land your next role with guidance from leaders who’ve been there.

What clients say

The value of working with someone who’s been in your seat.

They don’t just coach you through the process, they help you see what you can’t see when you’re in the middle of it.
VP of Marketing, Large Online Retailer
Two sessions in, I realized I’d been leading with my resume instead of my point of view. I got an offer within six weeks of finishing the program.
Former CMO, Major Fintech Company
There’s something that only happens in a room with five other senior marketing leaders going through the exact same thing. I left every session thinking more clearly.

Frequently asked questions

Let’s make sure you have all the answers.

Outplacement is broad; this cohort is built specifically for CMOs and senior marketing leaders. It’s led by people who have held the role, so the guidance is deeper and more relevant.

It’s more affordable, and you get feedback from multiple peers, not just one coach. The cohort relationships also tend to last well beyond the program.

You’re welcome to keep attending. The later sessions still help with offer evaluation, onboarding, and AI fluency.

All sessions are held on video conference across U.S. time zones. The small cohort format works especially well remotely.

After you apply, a CMO Coach reviews your background and has a quick fit conversation. We build cohorts for chemistry, complementary goals, and senior-level experience.

It’s not for mid-level managers, early-career candidates, or anyone wanting a basic résumé refresh. The cohort assumes senior leadership experience.

If you decide after the first session that it’s not a fit, we’ll refund your tuition in full. After that, the program is non-refundable.

Often, yes. We can provide an invoice or W-9 for HR or finance if needed.
