Group Programs for Political and Civic Leaders

Some of the most powerful leadership development happens in community — with peers who understand the specific pressures of the work, going through the same hard things at the same time. Our group programs create that container.

We’re currently offering The Bridge: Democratic Operative Group Coaching Pilot Program.

Peer Leadership Cohorts

What It Is

A cohort for political and civic leaders from different organizations who are navigating similar transitions and challenges. You'll work alongside a small group of peers — state party leaders, campaign managers, nonprofit executives, and civic founders — in a confidential, structured environment designed for honest reflection and real progress.

Who It's For

  • State party leaders and senior staff

  • Campaign managers and senior campaign staff

  • Nonprofit and civic organization executives and directors

  • Founders launching new political and civic ventures

  • Leaders who want peer community as much as coaching structure

What's Included

  • Group sessions with facilitated coaching and peer exchange

  • Potential individual coaching sessions per participant

  • Topics covering leadership identity, decision-making, team dynamics, sustainability, and transitions

  • A private community channel for ongoing peer connection between sessions

  • Resource library and session materials

Format Details

  • 2-6 months of group sessions and individual sessions

  • Cohort sizes: 6–20 participants

  • Sessions held via Zoom

  • Pricing: Contact for current cohort rates — sliding scale available

Organizational Team Coaching

What It Is

A monthly coaching retainer engagement for a leadership team within a single organization — a state party leadership team, a nonprofit senior team, a campaign's core staff, or a founding team building a new civic venture. We work with the team as a unit: building shared language, improving how decisions get made, strengthening trust, and aligning around what actually matters.

Who It's For

  • State party executive leadership teams

  • Nonprofit and civic organization senior teams

  • Campaign leadership teams mid-cycle or between cycles

  • Founding teams of new political and civic ventures

  • Boards navigating transition or growth

What's Included

  • Initial organizational assessment and team survey

  • Weekly or Bi-weekly team coaching sessions

  • Individual check-ins with leads

  • Between-session support via email and short calls

  • Customized session design based on the team's specific challenges and goals

  • Closing assessment and forward planning session

Format Details

  • 2-8 months | Custom session cadence based on organizational need

  • Team size: Up to 12 participants

  • Sessions held via Zoom or in person (travel may apply)

  • Pricing: Scoped individually — contact to discuss

Getting Started

Team coaching engagements begin with a 30-minute exploratory call to understand your team's situation and determine if this is the right fit.

Lauren was instrumental in my development as a leader. Together, we worked on building a strong team and organizational culture that helped push our program to the next level! Whether we were navigating high-pressure partnership moments, working through team challenges, or making difficult decisions, Lauren had a way of grounding the work in purpose while making space for real growth - not just jumping from fire to fire.
