Leadership Accelerators
Two programs. Two moments in the leadership journey. Both built from 30 years of doing this work for real.
Whether you’re building your path to leadership or navigating your first months in the seat — there is a program built for exactly where you are right now. Both are live, founder-led, and designed to give you what most leadership programs never do: honest, operator-level guidance from someone who has been in every room you’re trying to get into.

For aspiring women leaders in revenue
Built to Lead
For the high-performing woman who is ready to lead — and done waiting to be chosen.
You have the track record. You have the instincts. What you don’t have is a clear path from where you are to the leadership role you know you’re capable of holding. Built to Lead was designed for you.
This is a six-week live leadership program for women in revenue who are preparing for their first leadership role. Over six sessions — facilitated directly by Elisa Hawkins, former VP of Sales with 30 years of operator experience — you will learn to think like a leader, speak the language of leadership, and position yourself so deliberately that you become impossible to overlook.
Most programs teach frameworks. Built to Lead teaches you how to navigate the system you’re actually in — with the visibility, strategy, and confidence to move forward on your own terms.
What you walk away with: Six courses. A private 1:1 session with Elisa. And a clear, personal plan for getting from where you are to where you’re going.
Format: Live cohort + standalone courses
Length: 6 weeks
Cohort begins: July 9, 2026
Cohort size: Max 14 seats
Investment: Starting from $400 per course · Full cohort $2,000

Six courses. One clear path forward.
Each course is available as a standalone purchase, a 3-course bundle, or as part of the full 6-week cohort experience.
01 — Think Like a Leader
Start the identity shift before you have the title. Understand what separates how leaders think from how high performers think — and begin making that shift now.
02 — Speak the Language of Leadership
Learn the strategic language that leaders speak in the rooms you haven’t been in yet. Stop being the best-kept secret in your organization.
03 — See How Leaders Run the Room
Demystify what the leadership job actually looks like day to day — the rhythm, the decisions, the conversations — before you’re expected to lead them.
04 — Make the Shift
The transition from individual contributor to leader is harder than most people expect. Understand what changes and start preparing for it now — before you’re in the deep end.
05 — Get Seen by the People Who Matter
Build visibility with the decision makers who control your future — in a way that gets you noticed and remembered for the right reasons.
06 — Position Yourself to Win
Learn how influence actually works in revenue organizations. Build a deliberate strategy for positioning yourself inside the system — without compromising who you are.

Everything you need to move from where you are to where you’re going:
Six Live Sessions, Elisa-Led
Six weekly sessions, 60 minutes each — facilitated directly by Elisa Hawkins, not a contractor, not a curriculum handed off. Every session is built from 30 years of operator experience and designed to give you the frameworks, language, and strategy you need to lead before you have the title.
Private 1:1 With Elisa
A private 30-minute session with Elisa, personalized entirely to your situation. This is not a group Q&A. It is a focused, tactical conversation about where you are, what’s blocking you, and exactly what to do next.
Peer Pods
You will be matched with another Built to Lead participant for biweekly structured accountability sessions throughout the program. Agenda and prompts provided. Because the women in this room are some of your most valuable long-term resources.
Session Recordings
Every session recording is available for 30 days so you can revisit the content, catch what you missed, and take it at your own pace when life gets full.
30-Day Post-Program Check-In
One month after the program ends, Elisa checks back in. Because the real work starts after the last session — and you shouldn’t have to navigate that alone.
Private Slack Channel
Access to a private Slack community for the duration of the program and beyond. A space to ask questions, share wins, and stay connected to the women who understand exactly where you are.
Want to take it further? The 90-Day Path to Leadership is available as a standalone add-on after you complete the track — turning everything you’ve learned into a concrete, personal action plan. -
Where you are now:
Waiting to feel 100% ready
High performance with no clear path forward
Invisible to the people who decide your future
Playing by rules that weren’t designed for you
Letting your results speak for themselves
Where you’ll be:
Leading with intention before you have the title
Building a deliberate path to the role you want
Visible and positioned with the people who matter
Navigating the system with strategy and confidence
Making yourself impossible to overlook
-
Built by someone who has been exactly where you are.
Most leadership programs are built by people who studied leadership. This one was built by someone who lived it.
Elisa Hawkins spent 30 years inside revenue organizations — carrying quotas, building teams, and leading sales organizations from Fortune 500 companies to growth-stage companies scaling toward IPO. She navigated every stage of the revenue leadership journey herself — from first rep to VP of Sales in some of the most competitive B2B environments in the country.
She also saw firsthand what happens to talented women in revenue who do everything right and still get overlooked. She built Built to Lead because no one handed her the map — and you shouldn’t have to figure it out alone either.
Real operator experience. Not theory borrowed from a textbook. 30 years of building, leading, and fixing revenue teams from Fortune 500 to pre-IPO.
She has been in your seat. From first rep to VP of Sales — she navigated every stage of this journey herself.
Elisa-led. Every session. Not a curriculum handed to a contractor. Every session, every piece of feedback comes directly from Elisa.
Private 1:1 with Elisa. Cohort members get a private 30-minute session with Elisa — personalized to your specific situation.

For newly promoted women leaders in revenue
The Real Work of Leadership
For the woman who just got the promotion — and found a completely different room than the one she expected.
Getting promoted was the goal. Then you walked through the door and realized the job looks nothing like you imagined. The skills that made you exceptional as an individual contributor are not the same skills that make you effective as a leader — and almost no one tells you that before it’s too late.
The Real Work of Leadership is a six-week live program for newly promoted revenue leaders who want to get it right — not just survive the first year. Over six sessions facilitated directly by Elisa Hawkins, you will rewire how you lead, build the operating rhythm your team needs, and develop the strategic communication and influence skills that define credible, lasting leadership.
This is not a generic leadership course dressed up for sales. Every session is built around the specific realities of leading a revenue team — from someone who has led them at every level for 30 years.
What you walk away with: Six courses. A private 1:1 session with Elisa. And the clarity and confidence to lead well — not just competently.
Format: Live cohort + standalone courses

Six courses. Built for right now.
Each course is available as a standalone purchase, a 3-course bundle, or as part of the full 6-week cohort experience.
01 — The Leadership Identity Shift
Understand the identity shift you’re in the middle of — and why it’s harder than anyone told you. Name what needs to change and start leading from that clarity.
02 — Thinking Like A Revenue Executive
Move from executing strategy to building it. Learn how revenue leaders think about the business and how to lead your team toward a clear strategic direction.
03 — Leadership Operating Rhythm
Build the weekly structure that makes you a consistent, trustworthy leader. Pipeline reviews, 1:1s, team meetings — done intentionally, not reactively.
04 — From Seller To Leader
The transition from individual contributor to leader accountable for others’ results is the hardest shift in revenue leadership. Navigate it with clarity and confidence.
05 — Leading Up: Executive Communication
Communicate with the leaders above you clearly, strategically, and in a way that builds your credibility and trust as a new leader in the room.
06 — Strategic Influence
Understand how influence works in your organization and build a deliberate strategy for leading across and upward — not just down to your team.

Everything you need to lead well — not just get through the first year.
Six Live Sessions, Elisa-Led
Six weekly sessions, 60 minutes each — facilitated directly by Elisa Hawkins, not a contractor, not a curriculum handed off. Every session is built from 30 years of revenue leadership experience and designed to give you the practical tools, frameworks, and honest perspective that new leaders almost never get access to.
Private 1:1 With Elisa
A private 30-minute session with Elisa, focused entirely on your specific situation and challenges. Not generic advice. A direct, tactical conversation with someone who has been in your seat — and can tell you exactly what she would do.
Peer Pods
You will be matched with another Real Work of Leadership participant for biweekly structured accountability sessions throughout the program. Agenda and prompts provided. The leaders you meet in this room will be some of the most important relationships of your career.
Session Recordings
Every session recording is available for 30 days so you can revisit what you need, when you need it — because leading a team in real time doesn’t always leave room to absorb everything in the moment.
30-Day Post-Program Check-In
One month after the program ends, Elisa checks back in personally. Because the first 90 days of leadership don’t stop when the program does — and you deserve continued support as you put everything into practice.
Private Slack Channel
Access to a private Slack community for the duration of the program and beyond. A space to ask questions, process challenges, and stay connected to the women who are navigating this transition alongside you.
Want to take it further? The 90-Day Leadership Plan is available as a standalone add-on after you complete the track.

Where you’ll be:
Leading with a clear identity and authority

30 years of revenue leadership. Now working for you.
She’s not a coach who learned leadership from a book. She’s an executive who has lived it — made the mistakes and built the frameworks that actually work.
Elisa Hawkins spent 30 years inside revenue organizations — building teams, fixing broken orgs, and leading sales organizations responsible for growth across Fortune 500 companies and growth-stage startups. She made the exact transition you’re navigating right now — from top performer to leader accountable for others’ results — in some of the most competitive B2B environments in the country.
She has watched the transition from top performer to effective leader break some of the best revenue people she’s ever managed. The Real Work of Leadership exists because almost no one gets real help making it — and that has to change.
She made this transition herself. From carrying a quota to leading the team — she navigated every stage of the revenue leadership journey in real organizations, under real pressure.
Every session is Elisa-led. Not a curriculum handed to a contractor. Every framework, every piece of feedback comes directly from 30 years of operator experience.
Built for revenue specifically. Not a generic leadership program dressed up for sales. Every session is designed around the realities of revenue organizations.
