FutureMBAA Private Practice
If you want the MBA-level frameworks of the Electives — applied to your business, your decision, your schedule — Executive Coaching is the better path. Twelve months alongside Sam: one private hour every month or fortnight, short notes between, the frameworks calibrated to the call sitting on your desk. AI-native throughout. Three to five senior leaders at a time.
— Samuel Leetham, Founding Partner
No form. A short letter. Read personally.
The frame
What this is
One private hour each month, scheduled to your calendar. We work on the actual piece of work — the negotiation brief, the rebuilt P&L, the decision you keep relitigating. Between sessions, short async correspondence on what you send. Twelve months because the hard work compounds across quarters, not weeks.
What this is not
A retainer. A weekly cadence with a worksheet. Not a tier on the FutureMBA ladder — coaching is a separate room with its own door, and most senior leaders never need it. Not a place to be told you’re doing well. We come to the hour to do work, and we leave with the work done.
The year
A representative shape — actual subjects are dictated by what you carry in. The frame stays; the contents change.

The year-end note
If this is the year — the decision is already on your desk, the cadence is already overdue — write a note to apply now. I read every one personally; you’ll hear back inside five business days.

The caseload is deliberately small. When seats are taken, openings go first to subscribers already inside the curriculum — so if there’s urgency, that door is the faster one.
Practice capacity
Cap · three to five concurrent relationships
By application · twelve-month term
A small number of seats are reserved each year for senior leaders by direct correspondence — no subscription prerequisite. Reviewed quarterly. Notes received outside cycle are held to the next opening.
By correspondence
The decision you’re carrying. The Elective or cohort you’ve completed, or where you are in the work. The cadence you’d want over a year. Three or four paragraphs is plenty.
If there’s a fit, we’ll arrange a thirty-minute introduction — typically within five business days. If the timing’s wrong, I say so plainly. Either way, you’ll hear back.
