Strategic Identity Intensive

Who You Are is your competitive advantage

A one month strategic experience that helps sports organizations build clarity, alignment, and direction. The Intensive is a celebration of the sports tourism industry and a response to the overwhelming momentum created by the announcement of the Sports Executive and Strategy Incubator. It gives leaders a meaningful way to engage now, learn together, and sharpen their identity before taking the next step in their development.

The Intensive stands on its own and also serves as a natural introduction to the Sports Executive and Strategy Incubator for those who want to continue their growth.

WHY THIS INTENSIVE EXISTS

 A Celebration of the Field and a Response to Extraordinary Momentum

When The Collective BEST announced the Sports Executive and Strategy Incubator, the response from the field was immediate and overwhelming. Leaders across sports tourism asked for a way to engage earlier, learn together, and begin to build clarity before the next Incubator cohort.

The Strategic Identity Intensive is our response to that moment. It is a celebration of the sports tourism industry and a recognition of the energy, curiosity, and commitment leaders are bringing to this new era of development. It gives organizations a shared space to think, learn, and align, and it reflects our belief that the field deserves access to high-quality strategic support without barriers.

The Intensive also serves as a natural introduction to the Sports Executive and Strategy Incubator for leaders who want to continue their development and build deeper strategic capability.


WHY WE OFFER IT AT NO COST

The Intensive removes financial barriers for new staff, small teams, and organizations between budget cycles. It also gives leaders a meaningful way to experience our approach before further your journey with the Sports Executive & Strategy Incubator.
