Cofounders consultations
Build the right partnership. Fix the wrong one.
Would you ever go skydiving without training? Probably not. The same goes for cofounding - powerful when done right, painful when not. The individual consultations give founders direct, hands-on guidance to build, structure, or repair their cofounding teams. Each session applies the Cofounding 7-Step System to your specific situation — bringing clarity, fairness, and stability where it matters most.
New Cofounding Teams
Before you launch together, make sure you’re aligned on the essentials:
Do we have the right mix of cofounders?
How will we work together and make decisions?
What’s fair in terms of roles, responsibilities, and equity?
Are we clear on purpose, motivation, and expectations?
What mechanisms (vesting, cliffs, milestones) do we need to stay fair long-term?

Existing Cofounding Teams
Even experienced teams hit friction points. If you’re facing low performance, unclear ownership, decision deadlocks or founder tension, an external perspective can help:
Review team structure and decision making
Re-align equity and contribution balance
Address under-performing or departing cofounders
Resolve conflict through structured mediation and action plans
Re-establish trust, clarity, and performance — before small issues turn into costly disputes.
Cofounder Mediation
Resolve conflict before it is too late.
When cofounder conflict feels unsolvable and tensions run high, bringing in an independent expert mediator is effective, protective and helpful.
Cofounder mediation leads structured conversations that uncover root causes and help the team to find practical solutions—whether rebuilding trust, improving communication, clarifying roles, or even reviewing the cap table. Mediation helps teams to find peace without lawsuits, equity wars or founder fallout.
As a CEDR-accredited mediator with experience in over a hundred successful cofounder mediations, I bring structure and neutrality to help founders find clear and actionable solutions that protect relationships and the business.
Workshops & lectures
Turn knowledge into founder alignment.
Great teams don’t happen by accident — they’re built with clarity, structure, and shared understanding. The main thing founders lack is knowledge and tools. This can be fixed. Our cofounding workshops help founders, accelerators, and investors apply the 7-Step Cofounding Framework to build stronger, more resilient startup teams.
Each session can cover one or more of the key cofounding topics:
Partnership suitability – discover if you’re a match before you commit.
Finding and dating cofounders – identify who you need and test fit early.
Team structure – define clear roles and responsibilities.
Fair equity split – understand the fixed and dynamic equity options, vesting and leaver frameworks.
Cofounder agreements and charters – what is needed to document the alignment.
Communication and conflict resolution – prevent small issues from becoming big ones.
Workshops combine real-world examples, case studies, and role plays with practical tools you can apply immediately. Each session is interactive and fully tailored to your audience — from early-stage founders to startup accelerators, startup coaches or investors.
