Overview
Missio Nexus seeks to walk alongside leaders who have been in their role five-years or less. Our desire is to assist these CEOs in their adjustment to the new role, new team and perhaps new organization. Leaders will be engaged both one-on-one by our OnBoard Coach and will also have the opportunity to interact as a group with other CEOs who are in similar positions.
Goals
- Create smooth transitions from previous CEOs
- Encourage CEOs to be Spirit led learners, team builders, and consensus builders
- Assist CEOs with time management and spiritual development
- Help new CEOs work together as a cohort to learn, ideate and innovate
- Assist CEOs in building strong relationships with board members
Learning peer-to-peer from mutual challenges was a joy. Deepening relationship that allowed for mutual interaction outside of class time.

Structure
The OnBoard program will launch each year with a new class of CEOs at the Missio Nexus Annual Mission Leaders Conference. Participants are requested to attend the fall conference and specific time will be utilized in the schedule for the new group to interact with the OnBoard Coach and meet as a cohort.
Following the conference, the individual CEOs will have the opportunity to interact via phone, email and through an online virtual cohort group with each other and the OnBoard Coach. The 9-month program will conclude in May after the Missio Nexus Annual Peer-to-Peer CEO retreat. At this event CEOs will have the opportunity to interact with a wider group of CEOs from many different mission organizations and conclude their mentoring.

Dynamics
- Organizational Heath and Readiness Review & Action Plans
- Cohort Sessions (Virtual): 6 session at 2-2.5 hours each, including practicums with outside facilitators.
- Executive Coaching (Virtual): 3 session at 1-1.5 hours per participant
Cost
- $3,500 for the OnBoard Cohort and Coaching Program
- Optional Additional Component: OnSite Visit
A 2-day “Deep Dive” (In-person/Virtual) with the participant, leadership team, staff, and available Board Members. This is not required but has been extremely helpful for past CEO OnBoard participants. The focused interaction by the coach with the CEO and the team allows for deeper levels of coaching and advising, bringing substantive value. This option incurs an additional cost of $3,000 to cover the coach’s visit (travel/logistics) and coaching.
