Leadership can feel like a lonely mountain — even when you’re surrounded by people.

Lead Better. Together: What FORTIV Groups Are All About

What It Is:

Leadership can feel like a lonely mountain — even when you’re surrounded by people.

That’s why FORTIV Groups exist: to give high-performing men a space where they can drop the mask, speak the truth, and grow in brotherhood and boldness for the things that matter most.


FORTIV Groups are intimate, faith-integrated leadership collectives where men sharpen one another through in person radical honesty, deep accountability, bi-monthly coaching, and a shared pursuit of God's truth and purpose in faith, family, and business.

We meet in person to speak what’s real — not just what’s impressive.

This isn’t a Bible study. It’s a forge.

What makes FORTIV different is its blend of executive peer advisory, spiritual formation, and breakthrough coaching—all grounded in true identity, not pressure. It’s where high-capacity men recover their heart and lead from strength.

Why It Matters:

Most leaders are surrounded by people who admire them—but few who truly see them and speak the truth. In a FORTIV Group, you’ll:

  • Break the pressure of isolation
  • Identify and replace fear-based narratives
  • Collaborate with brothers who are fighting the same battles
  • Be called up, not just called out
  • Create results in faith, family, and business you never thought possible
  • Restore your masculine heart and lead with freedom

How It Works:
  • 8–10 men per group for depth, trust, and transformation
  • Monthly full-day in-person gatherings (9am–4pm) to sharpen faith, family, and business objectives.(Monthly in person gatherings occur in Southern California)
  • Biweekly individualized virtual group coaching with your “Ride or Die” partner (60 min Zoom, 2 leaders per group)
  • Annual 3–4 day expedition for adventure, clarity, and spiritual breakthrough
  • Frameworks and tools to perform at your highest capacity
  • Access to FORTIV tools, leadership content, and a growing network of committed men

Who It’s For:

Leaders who want growth that actually transforms and creates new results—not just more information.

If you’re ready to stop leading alone and start building from your true identity, you’re in the right place.

“Extraordinary living happens when you step out of the small story of fear and into the larger story of who God says you are. That’s where freedom is found, where courage takes root, and where your best work comes to life.”
