The conversations. The power dynamics.
The moments where your career actually gets decided.
Not theory. Not generic advice.
Real talk. Real strategy. No sugarcoating.
You don't need another framework to memorize. You need clarity in the moment, language that actually fits the situation, and strategy that accounts for how things really work.
That's what these companions are built for.
Every topic has two editions. Standard gives you real-time workplace strategy you can apply immediately. ENRICH goes deeper -- built for professionals whose Ethnicity, Nationality, Race, Identity, Culture, or Heritage marks them as outsiders in institutions not built for them.
Standard is strategic. ENRICH is surgical.
Because sometimes the issue isn't just the moment. It's the system around it.
Each one built for a specific type of moment. No app download. No login -- just your access code and you're in.
Standard
Your strategic thinking partner for decoding and responding to microaggressions without losing professional capital. Grounded in the DEAR framework and Duane's 5-step response protocol.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
For ENRICH professionals navigating microaggressions compounded by race, ethnicity, and systemic exclusion. Goes beyond tactics -- addresses the cumulative toll and the identity costs mainstream advice ignores.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
A coaching companion for developing emotional intelligence across five domains: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills -- in workplace context.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
Named for the emotional tax ENRICH professionals pay daily. Coaches you through EI development while acknowledging that managing your emotions in a system not built for you is a different kind of labor.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Master the full feedback loop -- giving honest, constructive feedback upward, downward, and laterally, and receiving feedback without defensiveness or capitulation.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
Decodes the hidden feedback dynamics ENRICH professionals face -- feedback withheld, feedback delivered through bias, and the silence that signals you've been written off.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Helps you see yourself as others see you -- your blind spots, communication patterns, and the gap between your intent and your impact.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
Self-awareness without erasure. Helps ENRICH professionals see themselves clearly without internalizing the distorted image that biased institutions project onto them.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Coaches you to maintain professional composure, lead with maturity, and model the behavior you wish others would demonstrate -- even when the room is immature, reactive, or hostile.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
Being the adult in a room where you're not expected to be there at all is a different assignment. Coaches ENRICH professionals on maintaining authority and presence in spaces not designed to receive them.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Develops your capacity to intervene effectively -- coaching difficult employees, redirecting unproductive behavior, and managing performance conversations with clarity and accountability.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH

$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Builds the listening skills that separate effective leaders from reactive ones. Hearing is what's best for you. Listening is what's best for us. This companion makes that distinction actionable.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
ENRICH professionals must listen on multiple frequencies at once -- what's said, what's meant, what's coded, and what's weaponized. Develops the listening intelligence that keeps you strategically ahead.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
The flagship companion. Built on the full 17 Keys framework, The Navigator coaches you through the complete landscape of upward influence, strategic visibility, and career advancement.

The most comprehensive companion in the suite. Applies all 17 Keys through the ENRICH Outsider lens -- built for professionals playing three-dimensional chess in systems designed for someone else.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Sharpens your ability to recognize, name, and respond to unconscious bias in yourself and in others -- without defensiveness and without letting the conversation derail into conflict.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
Unconscious bias is not a neutral experience when you're on the receiving end of it daily. Coaches ENRICH professionals on naming what others can't see -- and building the documentation and strategy to address it.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
For the newly promoted. Makes the real transition -- from doing the work yourself to getting it done through other people -- and helps you manage the two relationships that decide your fate: your boss and your team.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
Becoming a manager while being the first or only one who looks like you to hold the title on your team -- a narrower band of acceptable behavior, less benefit of the doubt, and no one ahead of you to model it.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Moves inclusion past theater -- the training day, the heritage-month email -- to the promotion data, meeting dynamics, and exit interviews that tell the real story. For leaders who want belonging that holds.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
You know how the room felt from the outside, because you were on it. Now you have enough position to shape whether other people belong -- without carrying the whole load yourself.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Most change efforts fail not because the plan was wrong, but because the human side was ignored. Moves your people through the change curve and turns your loudest resistors into your most credible advocates.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
When the ground shifts, it shifts under you harder -- less tenure, less sponsorship, less political cover. Reorgs and layoffs do not fall evenly, so this reads the signals early and helps you use the churn.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
There are two ways to mismanage a person: hold on too tight, or let go too soon. Lives in the narrow space between micromanaging and abdicating, and stops reverse delegation before the problem lands back on your desk.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
Delegation is harder when your authority to delegate is questioned and a report's mistake reflects on you more harshly. Escapes the double bind and builds a visibly high-performing team as the argument for your leadership.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
The strategic intelligence beneath the 17 Keys: how to build genuine chemistry with your boss, read the power structure around you, and get into the inner circle -- one micro-interaction at a time.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
The inner circle self-replicates by similarity -- people trust those who remind them of themselves. You are, by definition, different, so chemistry that forms on its own for peers has to be built deliberately by you.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.
Standard
Good work does not speak for itself -- it whispers, while mediocrity with a microphone gets the promotion. Teaches the reframe between bragging and accomplishment, so you control the narrative before someone else writes a smaller one.
$147 • One-time access
ENRICH
You have watched someone else take credit for work you led and built. In institutions built for someone else, good work whispers -- this resolves the double bind and the modesty-norm conflict so your contributions get named.
$297$147 • Same price. Deeper lens.

We reduced ENRICH edition pricing to match Standard. The ENRICH editions are more complex and more deeply researched -- but the professionals they were built for already carry enough extra costs. Price shouldn't be one of them.
