It’s Time to Lead Different.

The Lead Different Executive Communication Mastermind is a half-day, in-person leadership lab in Omaha, Nebraska, designed for senior leaders, executives, founders, pastors, and communicators who want to sharpen how they lead through words.

If you lead people, you lead with communication.

In boardrooms.
In team meetings.
In hard conversations.
In moments when clarity matters and pressure is high.

And most leaders feel it.

You carry vision.
You make decisions that affect people’s lives.
You navigate tension, conflict, and change.
And you often wonder, “Am I communicating this clearly, wisely, and effectively?”

That’s why this mastermind exists.

This is not a conference.

This is an Executive Communication Lab built for real leadership environments and real conversations.

Inside this room, you will:

  • Diagnose how you currently communicate under pressure

  • Practice communicating with clarity, confidence, and conviction

  • Receive coaching, feedback, and perspective from trusted leaders and peers

  • Walk away with language, frameworks, and next steps you can use immediately

You will not just listen.
You will engage.
You will discuss.
You will refine how you lead through words.

When you step into this room, you step into a community of leaders who understand the weight you carry and are committed to growing together.

This is a focused, intentional space to strengthen your voice, align your message, and lead with greater effectiveness where it matters most.

We'd be honored to have you in the room.

— Mike O’Connell & Chad Reelfs
