Who do you call when you're stuck?
For most owners and executives, the honest answer is nobody. So we built the room. Twelve organizations, none of them competitors, and one real problem worked all the way to an action plan every month.
Four minutes inside the Problem Solving Mastermind.
Three hours. One problem. A plan you can act on.
- Report backLast month's member tells the room what they did and what moved.
- Draw the problemThis month's problem is picked at random, so nobody knows whose turn it is until we start.
- Get every fact on the tableBefore anybody offers an idea, we lay out the whole story. Most rooms rush this part. Ours slows down on purpose.
- Build the planThe room puts options on the board and tests each one. The member decides and leaves with an action plan, an owner and a date.

Who sits at the table
Owners, executives and the people who make the call. One seat per organization, and never a direct competitor in the same room.
Who it's built for
Manufacturers, mining operations, hospitals, colleges, and any organization running people through hard problems.
In person or virtual
Meet face to face in the Waukee area, or join a virtual room from anywhere. Same method, same twelve-seat cap.

One session. Clear next steps.
Weston Hefel, Sales Director at Payteva, brought a real problem to the room. The mix of perspectives at the table, run through a proven problem-solving process, gave him fresh ideas, clear next steps and a stronger marketing strategy. He left with the confidence to sharpen his brand and take a more aggressive stance.
“Talking about my business and industry with people unfamiliar to it allowed me to view my business from the outside. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.”Weston Hefel, Sales Director, Payteva
That's where most of the value is.
Eleven times a year you watch another operation get worked through the same method, start to finish. You bring what you've lived through, you see how other leaders think, and by the time your turn comes you've learned to run the method yourself.
Ideas they put to work the next day.
