by Jennifer Geary Former CRO, COO, bestselling author and C-Suite mentor

Step Into the Role With Confidence.
Lead With Clarity.

The role of the Chief Operating Officer (COO) is more important — and more complex — than ever. In today’s fast-moving, AI-enabled, climate-conscious world, the COO isn’t just a protector. They’re a strategic enabler, a translator of risk into action, and a trusted voice at the boardroom table.

This is the course for professionals who are ready to lead. Not just learn.
