Industries
I don't focus on industries - I'll never know your business as well as you do. I focus on a specific type of company and problem: founder-led businesses between $5M and $100M where the CEO has become the bottleneck, the leadership team isn't where it needs to be, and what got you here won't get you there.
Career Highlights
- 4x co-founder, three exits
- Coached by first Metronomics certified coach
- 7+ year client relationship (and counting)
- CardCast podcast co-host
- Three+ decades of experience across three countries
Are you the bottleneck in your own company?
You built something real - maybe you're at $10M, maybe $50M, or a $100M - but somewhere along the way, the thing you created started consuming you. Every decision flows through you. Your leadership team waits for your input before they move. You're working 70+ hours and still falling behind. And if you're honest? You've lost the joy you had when you started this.
I work with CEOs who look successful from the outside but are barely holding it together on the inside. The ones thinking "what got me here won't get me there" - and they're right.
Here's how I work: I don't just coach CEOs. I work with your entire leadership team - you, each team member individually, and the team collectively. Think of it like coaching an Olympic team, not just the captain. (Olympic teams don't perform without coaches. Neither do leadership teams.)
I take on a maximum of five clients at any time. That's it. This is deep, intensive work - years, not quarters. My longest client relationship is now 7+ years. Once a client, always a client.
I'm industry agnostic - I'll never know your business as well as you do. What I know is how to help you stop being the constraint, build a team that executes without needing you in every decision, and fall back in love with the company you built.
I've been on your side of the table. Serial entrepreneur from my high school days in Prague, 4-time co-founder with three exits. I learned the Metronomics system as a CEO - coached by Damian Byrne, the first certified Metronomics coach. Now I use that experience to coach others through the same inflection points that used to keep me up at night.
I'm based in Canada, serving CEOs across Western Canada and the Western US. The proximity matters - I can be there when you need me.
I also co-host the CardCast podcast with Ged Roberts, where we dig into the real challenges of leadership - no fluff, just practical insights for CEOs who want to grow without burning out.
What clients say when I'm not in the room: "If you're really serious about making a change, talk to Milan."
