The Momentum Year
Ignition for 365 Days of Game-Changing Leadership—Wherever You Lead

the year you transformed scattered effort into compounding wins, reshaped culture and confidence, and proved that breakthrough growth can be engineered on purpose.
Power Start: The Momentum Year is the playbook for that transformation—whether you’re guiding a global team, coaching a squad, running a side-hustle, or simply determined to lead yourself better.
The Momentum Year Movement
The book is just the spark—the Movement is the wildfire.
The Momentum Year Movement is a global community of leaders, learners, and change-makers who refuse to drift through another season of “busy.” We rally around one shared belief: small, deliberate wins—stacked with intention—create unstoppable forward motion in every arena of life.
When you join the Movement, you’re not just reading a book. You’re stepping into:
Collective Acceleration – weekly micro-challenges and win-shares that turn individual progress into communal momentum.
Live Ignition Sessions – short, high-energy gatherings where members trade quick wins, powerful stories, and safe-zone practices that keep risk-taking alive.
Chief Momentum Officer Network – a cross-industry circle of peers who speak the same language of growth, curiosity, and purposeful action.
Premium Resources – bonus playbooks, printable canvases, and behind-the-scenes Q&As that push your Momentum Year further, faster.
Whether you’re leading a multinational team, coaching a local squad, or piloting your own personal reinvention, the Movement surrounds you with the tools, stories, and community that make momentum contagious.
Turn the page, raise your hand, and feel the surge—because a single Momentum Year can change every year after.
