THE IMPACT ENTREPRENEUR MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

A program designed for consultants, trainers, and coaches.

You know you can help organizations achieve big things much faster with your support

…but who is supporting YOU?

THE TRUTH

Business leaders need results fast. You won’t have long to help the C-suite achieve the business results they are looking for – and by the time they hire you, they’re already behind.  At PMO Strategies, we’re here to help you drive high-IMPACT outcomes for the organizations you serve — so there’s no denying the clear-cut advantage you bring to the organization.

When you join, you'll have access to these exclusive benefits:

  • One-on-one coaching to help you define your business model and craft your offer
  • Opportunity to work with TransparentChoice to create and deliver a service offering
  • My game-changing IMPACT Engine System to implement with your clients
  • Hands-on coaching to support your unique business goals
  • All of the requirements to earn IMPACT Engine Consultant certification
  • Be on the list of consultants, trainers, and coaches we pull from for our own clients
  • Step-by-step proven strategy for growth and client acquisition
  • Specific training, templates, plans, and resources to help you build your business
  • Opportunity to create a business that gives you more fun, freedom, and fulfillment that only being a successful business owner can offer

NEW FEATURE: Exclusive Partnership to Help You Build Your Business

Organizations invest in projects, and they expect a return on their investment. Unfortunately, in most organizations, the ROI is too low.

It’s the PMO’s job to fix it, but most have neither the skills nor the tools they need to make it happen and that’s where you come in. During the mentoring program, you will learn a proven approach to doubling ROI, and our partner, TransparentChoice, has the software tools that can make it happen.

TransparentChoice has created an offer exclusively for the Entrepreneur Mentorship Program members to help promote a bundle of software and services, your services, aimed at helping customers double the ROI from their portfolio. The package includes software, naturally, but also sales and marketing support to help you reach out to prospects and have the kind of conversations that will help you close business.

Laura Barnard, Founder and Chief IMPACT Driver for PMO Strategies and Top Global PMO Influencer of the Year for 2021-2022.

Mike Hannan, Founder and CEO for Fortezza Consulting and Top Portfolio Performance and Strategy Expert and Author.

Mike and Laura have been friends for more than 13 year and during that time, they found that they had similar passions for helping organizations achieve high-IMPACT. Over the years Mike and Laura have supported each other’s businesses that they each started at the same time more than 10 years ago, started a non-profit together, and partnered together to serve clients around the world.

They built this program to share what they’ve learned in well over 50 years of combined experience delivering IMPACT for clients, consulting and advising companies on how to accelerate growth and deliver even more business value.

Their entire goal with this program is two parts:

  1.  Share everything they’ve learned about building and running successful businesses for more than a decade each and give you access to the lessons learned, short cuts, and people that can help you build a business that you love.
  2. Help grow a group of next-level consultants and trainers that PMO Strategies could partner with or pull into client engagements.

There are three components to this program and are scheduled as follows:

1. Self-Paced: The IMPACT Engine System – our step-by-step framework, training, and guidance that you can use to help your clients build and run highly successful PMOs or strategy delivery functions.

2. Twice Monthly 90 Minute Coaching Sessions plus 24×7 Access to Resources, Q&A, and Support: The IMPACT Accelerator Mastermind – a hands-on coaching program where you will be surrounded by training, support, and resources to help you apply the IMPACT Engine System for your clients.

3. Live Q&A Sessions and Workshops Scheduled Based on Group Availability: The IMPACT Consulting Mentorship – another level of guidance, coaching, and support focused on you and your business. The program timeline will be determined collaboratively with the first cohort of students to identify the ideal cadence of live coaching sessions, training workshops, etc. The program length is one year.

As soon as you complete your purchase, the IMPACT ENGINE SYSTEM™ will be available to you inside your account.

The mastermind and mentorship programs require that you sign the Non-Disclosure and Coaching Agreement signed by every participant to protect the identity and content covered in the sessions. We take the privacy of our students very seriously.

We have also created a phenomenal environment of kind and supportive participants from all over the world and want to maintain that culture of positive support in this group.

You’ll receive an email with your login information and links to the platform as soon as you complete registration. Check your spam or junk folder and make sure to add PMO Strategies to your safe sender list.

Don’t worry, we’ve got a payment plans for you because the truth is, you can’t afford NOT to be in this program if you’re serious about building and running a company that gives you the fun, freedom, and fulfillment that comes when you take a chance on yourself and lean into doing work you’re passionate about!

Your mentors, Laura and Mike, are not asking you to do anything they haven’t done themselves. Laura shares stories of how she put $10,000 on a credit card to join a mastermind program in her first year of business before she had any clients. She knew that she needed help if she was going to be serious about this company she wanted to build.

Since then, Laura has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars over the last decade taking programs, being a part of masterminds, taking courses, and trying different methods to create the brand you see today with PMO Strategies.

You get to take advantage of all of that experience and knowledge without having to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars or waste money making mistakes you will learn how to avoid.

One of the most important things you will learn as an entrepreneur is that you must invest in yourself as the business owner if you want your business to thrive.

If you aren’t willing to invest in yourself, why would you expect any clients to be willing to invest in you?

Given the high-touch nature of the program, refunds are not offered. However, if the first cohort does not reach 15 members, the program will be canceled and payments refunded.

If you want to build or grow a consulting, training or coaching business focused on PMOs, strategy delivery, project management, etc. then this hands-on mentorship is designed specifically for you.

If you find another program out there that was built 100% based on REAL WORLD experience building and running an organization for more than the combined experience of more than 50 years AND offers the kind of ongoing support, please let us know!!

Most importantly, if you do the work, you will get the results. This program works if you do the work.

DEFINTELY DON’T WAIT!!

We have participants that join after they “try to get settled” and then they find that they would have been so much better off with the resources we include in the program!

Every single one of them says they wish they’d found us sooner. Don’t let that be you!

We guide you through exactly what you need to do in those first 90 days in the role. We give you ever step-by-step and when you join BEFORE your first day on the job, you can get a head start in understanding how to hit the ground running – and have a 90 Day Plan to put in front of your boss day one!

Those first few weeks in the new role are critical.

You need to know who to talk to and what you should be asking and looking for in those first onboarding discussions and meet-and-greet conversations. First impressions are important! AND there are resources in Step 1 and Step 2 you will want to have to go through this process. Step 1 will help you get very clear on why your organization is there and Step 2 will help you uncover exactly what you should focus on first to build credibility and momentum quickly.

Remember, by the time they put you in this role, they have already been dealing with challenges or pain points they want addressed for months or years and so you are already behind the eight ball on day one. Annoying, but true.

We’re going to start by building a 90 day then a full year plan that is designed to go at the pace that works best for you. The consultant mentorship specific parts of the program will be customized based on the needs of the people in it and designed to go at a pace that meets the needs of each individual in the program.

Or you can pace it out slower to give you more time to work through the content. The IMPACT Engine System is yours to keep forever, even when we make updates, so you have it to use as many times and when you need it as your business evolves. 

This is not something you do in addition to your job on nights and weekends.

THIS IS YOUR BUSINESS, YOUR FUTURE, AND YOU’RE WORTH IT.

You will have guidance and support to apply to your own business whether it’s a side hustle or you’ve gone all-in on making this business everything you dream it can be!

You’ll have everything you need to do this. Why go the hard way when we’ve created this whole system FOR YOU so you can get better results much faster and easier?

This program takes you step-by-step through what to do, in what order, why it matters, how to do it, and then gives you the resources to do it – at your own pace so there’s no overwhelm or going too fast or not having time to do it all.

Right at the beginning of the program, you’ll spend time with your coaches building your road map for your first 90 days so you can lay out a realistic plan that not only ensures your success but helps you save tons of time wondering what to do, keeps you from making unnecessary mistakes, and ensures you’re on the right track for YOUR particular situation.

The program is designed to provide the systems, processes and business resources to empower “organizations of one” all the way up to larger teams. The community environment also connects solo entrepreneurs for peer learning, so you’ll never feel alone on this journey.

Absolutely! We will have a special license for you to use as long as you are in the Consultant Mentorship program.

We want to help you help your clients succeed, just like we do!

Plus, make sure you check out our new certification program because we have a level JUST FOR YOU so you can get ongoing support as you work with your clients.

Yes! You will have plenty of opportunity to get direct feedback on your specific business plan, materials, and support to help you with your business.

This course is priced per individual and it is against program licensing terms to share your login information or otherwise distribute the contents of the training program with the exception of the deliverables you are creating as a part of this course. You’ll create many of your organization’s deliverables in this course and those can and should be distributed to all stakeholders and are fully customizable.

However, we highly encourage all team members to take part in this program! After all, your team needs to be on the same page as you are shifting your mindset and building your organization or transforming how the organization delivers IMPACT. That’s why we have a special program for organizations. Contact us here or using the chat feature on the bottom right corner of the website to get the special pricing so all team members can benefit from the program.

Absolutely! We have two options for payment plans.
