Six Accelerator

Imagine a world where all social service leaders are as confident about their business skills as they are about their passion.


Most social service leaders step into leadership driven by passion - not business training. Yet suddenly, they’re managing people, budgets, strategy, and fundraising with no preparation. These skills are essential, but most leaders are left to figure them out alone.

Six Accelerator is an expert-led, supportive, accessible group for social service leaders who want to confidently lead the business side of their mission. Group members become skilled at prioritizing The CEO Six.

Not a self-paced training.

You don’t have to figure out your next steps alone. Six Accelerator is an interactive group of peers participating together in weekly, live exchanges with an expert coach and trainer.

How the Group Works
