Slootman focuses on the keys to mission-driven leadership discipline, proven to drive exponential growth – and hundreds of billions of dollars in market value.

The Amp It Up process features five key steps to boost growth and meaningful change, including:

  • Raise Your Standards: be mission-driven, combat incrementalism, and place execution ahead of strategy.
  • Align Your People: empower your team with a shared mission; hire drivers, not passengers, and get the wrong people off the bus.
  • Sharpen Your Focus: put analysis before solutions; prioritize more and multitask less.
  • Pick Up the Pace: speed up timelines, seize the moment to ramp up speed, and deliver.
  • Transform Your Strategy: sharpen your peripheral vision to expand your reach and growth potential.

Leading for growth means declaring war on mediocrity, breaking the status quo, and making choices, all with a relentless focus on the mission. AMP IT UP empowers executives, entrepreneurs, founders, managers, and leaders of all kinds, to unleash the growth potential of a company, and scale it to new heights with urgency and intensity.
