Doug Sutton, founder and Accelerator facilitator

Who this is for

You should not have to choose between profit and purpose.

Conscious Growth® is designed for ambitious founders and business leaders who want both: a more profitable company, a clearer strategy, stronger leadership, better systems, deeper customer relationships, meaningful positive impact and a business capable of becoming part of the legacy they leave behind.

A strong fit

You are a purpose-driven founder building a company worthy of the mission behind it.

You want profitable growth without sacrificing the values, purpose or people behind the company.

You want to strengthen the whole business, not chase disconnected tactics.

You are willing to examine assumptions, make meaningful decisions and turn insight into action.

You value sophisticated strategy, human judgment, collaboration and implementation.

You want to build something that creates meaningful value and is capable of lasting.

Not designed for

People casually exploring entrepreneurship

Founders seeking passive content rather than active participation

Leaders unwilling to examine assumptions or make changes

Businesses looking for isolated hacks instead of systemic improvement

People unwilling to implement what they learn

The value comes from applying the work to real decisions, alongside people equally committed to building something that matters.

When this fits

For purpose-driven founders who want experienced guidance, thoughtful challenge, practical strategy and a trusted room in which to work through the decisions shaping the company.

The initial six-month journey

Six months focused on the decisions that matter most.

The Accelerator begins with a structured six-month growth journey designed to help you diagnose the whole business, identify the highest-leverage opportunities and build the priorities, operating rhythm and decision discipline to move forward with greater clarity.

Members may continue beyond the initial six months as part of the ongoing Conscious Growth® community and advisory environment.

Applications are accepted year-round. New members begin through structured onboarding and enter their own six-month journey while participating in the ongoing Accelerator community.

The live experience

Perspective is more valuable when it becomes implementation.

Strategic Workshops

Members bring current decisions and opportunities into applied strategy sessions designed to turn insight into coordinated action.

Mastermind & Hot Seats

Continuous strategic intelligence

Your business context should compound, not disappear.

Goals, assumptions, decisions, commitments, transcripts, action items, results, strategic history and lessons remain connected so each conversation can build on the last and organizational memory becomes more valuable over time.

AI-supported intelligence can retrieve context, identify patterns, synthesize learning, prepare for conversations and convert discussion into action. It strengthens continuity and follow-through without replacing founder judgment, peer collaboration or experienced human guidance.

Use AI where it creates meaningful leverage. Keep human judgment where it matters most.

Within the Accelerator, AI may support research, analysis, customer insight, operational efficiency, workflow improvement, personalization, productivity, decision support, marketing and growth, knowledge management and business intelligence. Every use remains grounded in strategy, purpose, customer value, human judgment, trust, responsibility and second-order effects.
