Tired of the constant anxiety of what's next?
You've built an incredible business, but what if you could trade daily uncertainty for a clear, unwavering path forward?
The Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive creates a unique growth framework for established businesses ready to scale with a new kind of energy.
Using smart strategy before swift action, you'll stop forcing growth and build the systems that enable it. Throughout this intensive, you'll establish three critical elements:
Strategic Alignment — Get your entire leadership team on the same page with unified clarity on priorities and direction
2026-2027 Roadmap — Build a 36-month strategic plan grounded in operational reality, not wishful thinking
System Execution — Install the frameworks and processes that make decisions happen without constant CEO oversight
From Reactive to Redefined
You've built your success on decisive action, but what if the path to your future isn't about pushing through more, but about redefining what matters?
The five obstacles that plague even the most successful leaders — inconsistent action, playing small, self-sabotage, competing priorities, and poor use of time — are not a failure of character. They are a failure of strategy. And they manifest in a predictable way: reactive leadership.
Reactive companies operate in a day-to-day operational whirlwind. Most management teams spend less than 1 hour per month on the company's growth strategy. Every decision flows through the CEO. Your team waits for your input. Strategic work gets crowded out by daily crises.
Responsive companies have made a real shift. They dedicate intentional time today so you and your management team can anticipate where the growth opportunity will be tomorrow and make decisions that put your company in the right place to benefit from it.
The solution isn't more knowledge. It's a disciplined process of moving from management oversight to systems-led execution — architecting frameworks that make the right decisions without requiring your constant intervention.
Can you relate to any of these scenarios?
You are not alone. And the Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive is a path forward for you.
Move from survival mode to strategic leadership — scaling your business with clarity, speed, and confidence.
Over 6 facilitated sessions and 2 strategic retreats, you'll install two architectures that fundamentally shift how your business operates: a Dynamic SWOT that grounds every initiative in unvarnished operational reality, and a Responsive Decision-Making Architecture that distributes authority across your leadership team.
You'll establish a strategic rhythm — protected weekly time for the deep work that moves your company forward — and build your Business Instinct, the ability to integrate data with honed intuition.
The result: unwavering confidence in your strategic direction, decision-making authority distributed across your team, and a business that scales without scaling your stress.
You'll move from daily uncertainty and constant firefighting to clarity, sharper decisions made faster, and a company that doesn't just survive market volatility — it leverages it as a competitive advantage.
The Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive is 6 sessions to build your framework and 2 Present Retreats developing accountability practices for sustaining a new level of energy.

Meet Jess Dewell
Is your business truly growing, or are you just getting busier trying to maintain the status quo?
Many of the established leaders I work with feel the same way. They've built something significant, yet they're operating under outdated business dogma. They are told that to survive, they have to rely on data alone, but I'll tell you a truth others won't: data only tells you what has already happened.
I am not your typical consultant. My work is not about quick fixes or chasing the latest trends. It's about a relentless pursuit of strategic truth and a commitment to advocacy. I believe that lasting growth comes from evolution, not revolution.
My mission is to help you build a powerful business instinct—a deep knowing that allows you to discern the right work and do as much of it as possible. I've built thriving, revenue-generating businesses myself, and I’ve seen firsthand how this instinct is the ultimate competitive advantage.
By partnering with you to ask the hard questions and transcend the limits of conventional data, I help you move beyond the busy, challenge outdated thinking, and find the clarity to forge your path forward.
I don’t just help you fix problems; I empower you to build a business that is dynamic enough to command your relevance and conquer disruption.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this intensive right for my business? What size or industry do you typically work with?
Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive is for entrepreneurs, business owners and founders of companies running up to $5mm annually. This intensive is run once a year to give you more perspective and keeping your business instinct. Business instinct is data and intuition to identify the right opportunity right now that aligns with your growth strategy. Strategic time outside of day-to-day business activities is more than valuable - it is generative to creating your business’ future.
I'm the Founder/CEO, but can I bring my business partner or a key executive with me?
Yes. Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive is the foundation for what to do and when to do it. Key decision makers - co-founders, business partners, even your executive team - working together provides opportunity to uncover and incorporate different perspectives.
We're actually growing fast, not stalled. Is this still for us?
There are pitfalls to growing fast, just like there are pitfalls to being in a growth plateau. Both are part of your business’ lifecycle and offer the opportunity for key insights into the way business is done in your organization. Business instinct is foundational to navigating fast growth and scaling as much as breaking through growth plateaus.
How is this different from other business coaching intensives or masterminds I've tried?
In the 24 years Jess has been doing this work, companies that achieve longevity and the ability to stay relevant to customers as their problems and expectations change benefit from Present Retreats. Plans, priorities, actions, technology to track and automate are all important tools. How you think, how you feel, how you find patterns isn’t something taught. Intuition is usually avoided, yet those that build their business instinct (intuition and ability to see emerging patterns) are the companies that have ongoing achievement.
What is the total time commitment for the Driving Solutions Intensive?
You will participate in six 90-minute sessions (material presented is 60-minutes with up to 30-minutes of open time with Jess to talk about what is coming up for you) across 2 weeks. There are two 90-minute facilitated Present Retreat sessions to intentionally engage with your growth strategy. Early bird registrations will unlock four additional Present Retreats facilitated monthly to recommit and stay connected to your growth strategy.
- There will be 20-40 min of work between sessions to stay connected to the material, prep for the next session, and finish exercises from each live session
- During the Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive, you have unlimited access by email and may schedule office hours with Jess.
Are the live sessions recorded if I have to miss one due to a conflict?
The sessions are recorded, so in the event of a timing conflict you may replay. Also, when you register, you will have access to the entire set of recordings for an entire year. From now through Nov 1, 2027 so you can revisit any of the content and information during the year as you continue to build business instinct and dynamically make adjustments identified in your weekly Present Retreats.
What, exactly, is a "Present Retreat" and how is it different from the framework sessions?
A Present Retreat is protected time that you commit to each week to work on your business without interruption of daily activities. This weekly commitment is a habit to build and a tool to lean in to to stay nimble and confidently navigate issues and opportunities.
How large are the groups? Will I get individual attention?
Driving Solution Strategic Intensive is limited to 12 companies, which equates to 12-24 people as it is recommended that companies will register their co-founders and business partners. Each live session will have a breakout and concentrated time on the Driving Solutions framework with 30-minutes built in for questions and dialogue. (It is set up this way as there are participants with schedules that may only have 60-minutes in their business schedule.) Also, you have unlimited access by email and the ability to setup office hours, 20-minutes, with Jess when it fits your schedule.
What happens immediately after I register for the Driving Solutions Intensive?
After registering for the Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive, you will receive a confirmation and access to your True North Dashboard. Materials will be in your dashboard a few days before the first session. You will receive an email before each session to begin thinking and feeling about prior to its start.
The dates for this Intensive don't work for me. When will the next one be offered?
This Intensive is run 1x per year. When registration is closed, you can join the waitlist and be the first to know when next year’s Driving Solutions Strategic Intensive is scheduled.
