Feel more confident in your management skills and your ability to lead.
Whether you want to get better at delivering feedback. Or want more tools to engage and retain your staff. Level up your leadership skills and establish a framework to know how it's going, and troubleshoot along the way.
BPX was built for this.
Despite what your little league coach may have said, there’s no such thing as a born leader. Effective management is a set of discrete, learnable skills. Each week in BPX, we introduce, dissect, and understand the individual components. Over six weeks, we stitch the pieces together. You’ll finish the program with a robust toolkit, including everything you need to grow and develop your team.
We’ve worked with thousands of leaders across hundreds of organizations.
BPX uses an "inverted classroom" approach. Each week, you'll unlock 1-3 hours of self-study work to review at your own pace, followed by a live 1-hour Zoom session with Melissa and Johnathan where we unpack it all as a group. The self-study videos are all captioned, and broken up into short segments. You can binge a week’s content in a single evening, or space it out as your schedule allows. People tell us it’s a bit like listening to their favourite podcast.

FAQ

We recommend that you set aside 4 hours per week total. That includes one hour per week for the live sessions and approximately 2-3 hours for the self-study portions.
BPX runs across 6 weeks and don’t worry, we’ll send you calendar invites for all the live sessions! -
Nope. When you’re in a program with us, we ask you to bring real, honest conversation and questions. For many folks that’s harder to do if the recording light is on, and it’s unclear where those recordings might get shared. We don't record, or allow anyone else to record the sessions — what happens in BPX stays in BPX.
-
You have access to the online content for three months from the start of the program. You'll have time to go back, watch anything you missed, download the templates, and review the modules.

Our live sessions are done through Zoom and offer live English transcription. We use hand raising, chat, and the breakout room functionality, but we don’t use the collaborative whiteboard or other visual features. The self-study materials are a mix of text and video, delivered through a web-based platform (Thinkific). The videos are formatted as slides with voice-overs by Melissa and Johnathan, and are all closed-captioned. The slides visuals are offered as a teaching aid, but the material they contain is also addressed in the voiceover. If you have any other accessibility requirements or questions, please let us know.
