Answer plain questions. Add rough numbers. See what your business, and your life, are really asking of you.
Scroll down. Meet the person behind this, then move three sliders and see what it really takes — and what it asks of you as a leader.
I mentor founders. And I have come to believe that the business asks something of the person long before it asks for a better marketing plan.
“I do not want you to become impressive at a life you have never chosen. I want you to understand what you are building, who it serves and what kind of person your way of working is helping you become.”
That is why we built the North Star, and why it is free. Start with you. The numbers come — but they come second.
Nobody decides to give their family less. It just happens, one ordinary week at a time.
There is no deadline on this page. There is only next week — and it is already filling up.
For each one: slide the grey bar to today, the gold bar to where you want to be. Watch the answer change.
Your own numbers, simple arithmetic. Not a forecast, not a benchmark.
Profit alone is not a win. A business can be useful and fragile, profitable and cruel, admired from outside while it eats the person leading it. The North Star looks at all four sides at once.
A win is where all four meet.
Each stage asks something different of you as a leader. Tap your answers — see where you stand and what it takes to move on.
Start with the life you want — not with sales. Then see what the business has to do to give it to you.
Simple arithmetic on your own numbers, not a forecast or a benchmark. The full North Star also looks at cash, customers and the people around you.
This is the What-if lab from inside the North Star, running on the five numbers you just slid. Move a lever and watch your pay, your sales, your hours and your people answer.
