THE CAPTAIN PROGRAM
Take the Helm: Master the 7 elements needed to captain your ship through 2020 and beyond
with Kelly Byrnes

Hello!
I'm Kelly Byrnes.

This year has jolted us all out of our routines and pulverized our expectations. 

It reminds me of the volatile world after 9/11. I was the Human Resources leader in a marketing firm in Chicago. That day was rough, as were the next few weeks. The shock, fear, and disruption to our lives took a toll. A few months later, when the agency could barely hold on, it was rough eliminating the non-billable positions. Including my own.

 In 2020, we all are confused by the unknown; we are afraid for our lives, our livelihoods, and our children's futures. Even the handful of companies and business owners who are doing really well are still struggling with the changes and ambiguity of it all.

Whether your company, business, or organization is barely hanging on (or doing remarkably well), if you're ready to take the helm of your ship, this program is for you.

The systems and practices in this new program have enabled me to navigate rough seas many times, including as a leader with people counting on me.

The Captain Program includes the steps I take to get my bearings—steps I've shared with countless others across the country. Everyone gets blown off course now and then, but the best leaders do whatever it takes to course correct. This Captain Program is the compass, the anemometer, the sail, and the wheel—all the tools you need to stay the course. 

The best way to sail through a storm is to learn how from an experienced sailor. That's me. Check it out and join me in The Captain Program today!

We thought business was VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous) before the pandemic hit, then coronavirus spread like wildfire, businesses closed, and people were sent home for good or to set up offices on their kitchen tables. Parents were expected to homeschool their children, Zoom meetings all day, and social distance from everyone. Just as we got used to virtual living and operations, civil unrest demanded attention too. The rough seas of 2020 kept getting rougher. 

The Captain Program enables leaders to gain perspective and control over the VUCA’ness of 2020.

Reduce the stress and fear caused by the uncertainty of the future of work and society. 
Take back your life! Aspire to your higher purpose!

COURSE SCHEDULE

If you can't join us live for every session, don't worry! You will have access to recordings of all modules.  
Plan for 60 to 90 minutes of reflection and work between each module.
Assignments and materials will be provided during each session to aid completion.

PRE-PROGRAM:

Prepare for the course

Immediate download upon registration

Pack your bags and get ready to Captain your ship! You will receive tools to prepare you to get the most out of the course and set yourself
up for a successful journey.

MODULE 1:

Find your North Star

We will discuss your North Star, your purpose, and how to live in alignment with it, especially in rough seas. You will reflect on your life’s Passport and where your journey has taken you so far. You can dream of what you want to fill your Passport with throughout the rest of your life by creating a vision.

MODULE 2:

Anchors aweigh!

You will identify what’s worth keeping in the Baggage of life for the rest of your journey. You’ll also check your bags to be sure you’re not hauling around other people’s baggage! You will define what Anchors you, your core values, and choose how they will become part of your journey.

CHECK IN

Live Q&A

Check-In with Captain Kelly! Bring your progress to date and questions about the decisions needed to support the rest of the course. 



MODULE 3:

Choose your destination

Visions often fail to manifest because they are irrelevant to the truth—they are misaligned dreams. You will create a vision, align it with your motivators, and narrow your focus to make it happen—to take the helm of your ship.

MODULE 4:

Plan your journey

You will firm up your focus so you can put your priorities into action. Your Action Plan will be supported by its details like morning and evening routines (all the high-performing captains have those!). By the end of this module’s work, you will be ready to take the helm and steer your ship!

PROGRAM CLOSE:

Bon Voyage!

Ideally, you will complete all coursework by this module. You can emerge from The Captain Program with stability over this turbulent year, control over your life, and the confidence to move forward stronger than ever. 

PLUS,

3 new bonuses!

Interviews with 3 industry experts sharing their
personal journeys to success in business and life.

Ms. Afra Lucas, Associate Director, KPMG US

Ms. Lucas reflects on her career and life sharing four lessons which she attributes to her success. She also shares about personal branding and wraps up with a brief discussion about Diversity and Inclusion.

Colonel Ian Palmer, United States Army

Colonel Palmer speaks about identifying his guiding principles, which we call the core values. He also inspires with his perspective on resilience, failure, and living a balanced life. As the father of seven children, Colonel Palmer has a unique view of success and how he has achieved it.

Mr. Anthony Carey, Vice President, Engineering & Program Management, Spear Power Systems

Work-life balance is a priority to Mr. Carey, and he discusses tips for how to gain harmony. He touches on having a vision for life, anticipating obstacles, and how to set a path to attain goals. His advice for how to connect with people during this age of virtual meetings, along with advice for how to position yourself for promotion, is spot-on with what taking the helm is all about.

QUALIFIED INSTRUCTION

  • I've been through life and workplace disruptions including as an executive during major business disruptions, layoffs, and mergers. You will learn from someone who has been there.
  • ​Proprietary models based in science are shared in The Captain Program, not the trite models anyone can access for free.
  • ​Throughout my career, I have developed nearly 100k driven professionals! At Voyage Consulting Group (VCG), developing business leaders is not new, we are not winging it, and we are not learning at your expense.
  • ​VCG has worked with a variety of companies and levels of management too, so we understand needs and expectations of different verticals and layers of management.
  • ​Through this course, you will save thousands compared to the cost of an MBA class students pay to learn from me and executives pay for one-on-one coaching with me.

YOU HAVE BEEN
THROUGH A LOT

  • You've been through a pandemic! You likely have new strengths to capitalize on. You likely have new preferences and goals too because life is different now.
  • As companies recover from the pandemic, you can be ready for the next phase, no matter where you work.
  • ​Feel proud of preparing to advance yourself following the pandemic. Don’t settle for just getting through the pandemic (as big as that is). Aim higher! Aim to advance.

COMPANIES NEED MANAGERS WHO:

  • Can make safe and savvy decisions despite being impacted by the complex business environment. (Captains need to have their ship together.)
  • ​Can give attention to a variety of people and projects at once. (Captains can't do that if they are timid, tense, or stuck under the pressures of the turbulent year.)
  • ​Are confident leaders ready to build from here and take others with them. (Leaders who do not have command of self, cannot lead others.)

COMPANIES NEED
MANAGERS WHO:

  • Can make safe and savvy decisions despite being impacted by a complex business environment. (A ship captain needs to have their sea-legs.)
  • ​Can give attention to a variety of people and projects at once. (Captains can't do that if they are timid, tense, or unable to handle the pressure of complexity.)
  • ​Are strong leaders ready to build from here and take others with them. (If you do not have command of self, you cannot command others.)

What you get:

Focus!

Be less susceptible to distractions and taking on others' priorities and able to focus on your own—without guilt.

Capacity!

Set the right boundaries to achieve your goals
and make room for what you need to do.

Peace of Mind!

Gain guilt-free boundaries based on choices
aligned with your core values.

Confidence!

Confidence to speak up and stand up for
what is right for you and your future.

See things differently!

Yes, we will show you how to see things differently. Like pirates. Most  people think pirates wore patches because their eyes were wounded in sword fights. Nope.

Patches were tools to help them see better when they went between decks. Pirates had to go between bright, sunny upper decks and the pitch-black darkness of lower decks often.

The patch kept one eye ready for each area, which saved nearly 30 minutes of eye-adjustment time. 

We will help you be as agile as you see things a new way, too. Join us!
