An invitation to bring your authentic presence, creative mind, and greatest human capacities to work

The old ways of work are crumbling. People want to be part of organizations that stand for a purpose and value well-being, where their individual expression–and dare I say “soul force”–is welcome. The time has come when many people are unwilling to compromise their values for a paycheck. And rightly so.

There are big questions before us today: How do we cultivate our own inner stability and vision? To what degree can we do this in corporate environments that we ourselves do not control? When it comes to the successful companies of the future, what will their organizational cultures be like? And who will lead them or serve as mentors?

The answer to this last question is easy: People like you. People who care. 

People who want to live on purpose and are willing to do the inner work to re-imagine and reinvent how we live and work. Doing that, however, is not easy…

These are not “soft skills." They are some of the hardest skills to master and are not taught in college or business school.

With training and commitment, we can learn to become proactively aware of our thoughts and emotions, instead of always being reactively driven by them. We can learn how to regulate our nervous system such that we feel grounded, capable, and solution-oriented, even in the face of very challenging situations. We can learn to do hard things in a way that both honors our humanity and keeps our integrity intact. This includes having courageous conversations, giving and receiving constructive feedback, and moving through difficult times of transition with authenticity and composure.

With the Inner MBA® program, you now have access to some of the world’s leading conscious CEOs, expert faculty, and wisdom teachers who have already experienced success in the new purpose-driven paradigm of work, people who are willing to share what they know and illuminate the path for others.

Never before has such a talented and diverse faculty come together with this singular goal in mind.

When you enroll in the Inner MBA® program, you’ll also join a community of people just like you, who are right in the midst of this “sea change” and are eager to collaborate and problem solve to navigate the challenges we each face.

Whether you are an entrepreneur, an executive, a coach, or a consultant, the Inner MBA® program is an opportunity for you to grow yourself so you can grow your work in the world and bring forward your innate gifts in more and more powerful ways.

I believe that success in the future will be defined by the depth of connection we feel to meaningful work and the people we do it with. Self-awareness, creative vision, and collaboration skills will not be “nice to have”; they will be imperatives.

If growing in this way calls to you, please come join us for our next cohort of the Inner MBA® program.

We welcome you, fellow traveler and creative business change-maker, with open arms!

With love on the journey,

The Inner MBA Program at a Glance:

The Inner MBA certification program and community is a 24-week program designed to help entrepreneurs, leaders, executives, and coaches deepen the meaning of their work for themselves and others. 

We have identified a core training structure that delivers the critical skills you need to use conscious business practices as a pathway to success. Each cohort, we animate this learning journey with new, live lectures addressing the ever-evolving needs of our time.

The program will help you clarify the impact you want to have, define how to do that in a way that feels authentic, and support you in taking bold action so you can make the difference that the world needs you to.

In the Inner MBA program, you will find:

Established conscious business pioneers helping you reframe professional hurdles as catalysts for personal evolution and business growth

Renowned spiritual teachers giving hands-on guidance for using the perennial truths of the world’s wisdom traditions to inform career choices that reflect your core values, natural talents, and deepest aspirations

Training to take your leadership to the next level through conscious, authentic communication and an openness that will inspire others within your organization to do the same

Ongoing support from an engaged global community to help you clarify and reach your personal growth, business impact, and leadership goals

Why the Inner MBA program matters now.

Inner MBA community members are entrepreneurs, executives, coaches, and practitioners spanning every imaginable industry. What we share is a commitment to the journey of reinvention. 

 

You have likely begun to integrate mindfulness and self-discovery into your day-to-day. You know that we are all part of a larger fabric of life and sense the gap between that and our societal approach to work. You know there is something more that you can contribute, and that now is the time to embark on that path. 

Consider this program if…

  • You face challenges leading your team through a relentless pace of change
  • You feel at a crossroad for your company, your career, and your life
  • You understand the innate value of who you are and what you have to offer, but feel an internal or external “glass ceiling” preventing the full impact of your work to be known
  • You are navigating a life transition and feel unsure how to align your next steps with your future success

Our community members are repositioning themselves for success that feels more meaningful.  Many of us know we can do more, all of us want to feel supported as we make our next big leaps forward.

“I’m so grateful that you’re doing this program. The most essential part of being a great leader, a great manager, and a great person in the world is the inner reflection, inner confidence, and inner strength to do the things that are required in this moment.”

—Rose Marcario, former CEO of Patagonia and Inner MBA faculty member

JOIN US FOR AN EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME:

The Inner MBA Curriculum

The Inner MBA program consists of six modules with a weekly time commitment of 60-90 minutes.

You control your schedule: We’ve designed the program to include both self-paced and live components to give you control around when and how you engage. Recordings are always made available. 

You’ll also have access to a vast library of video teachings to deepen your studies on the subjects you find most impactful. Live session times vary and are carefully scheduled to accommodate time zones and the busy schedules of our guests, mentors, and community members. 

Develop mindful awareness, somatic intelligence, and authentic presence.

This powerful foundational module will lay the groundwork for the Inner MBA program, as you become more self-aware and resourced in your life and as a leader. You’ll also learn how your point of view informs your reality, and how you can expand that perception to create more impact in both your personal and organizational achievements.

Highlights:
  • Master the neuroscience-backed skills of self-regulation to stay composed in the moment and act in alignment with your deeper purpose and values
  • Become a more effective, empathetic leader using mindfulness and awareness practices adapted for today’s business environment
  • Understand how nervous systems interact—so you can become a source of safety and sanity for your colleagues, clients, and customers
  • Live teaching sessions led by Tami Simon, Jeremy Hunter, and more

Become liberated from what holds you and your organization back from high performance and greater flourishing

Metaphorically speaking, countless people show up to work wearing a mask (if not in full battle armor) to hide who they really are. Imagine if you could simply be yourself in your business life? Module 2 focuses on consciously integrating “what makes you YOU” into your career and mission—and encouraging others to do the same.

Highlights:
  • A live, intensive study in the Immunity to Change process as taught by Harvard University Lecturer and Cofounder of Minds at Work, Dr. Lisa Lahey
  • Essential tools and insights to commit yourself and your organization to continually nurture personal growth in the pursuit of our business objectives
  • Featured teachers in Module 3 include Tami Simon, Lisa Lahey, Tara Brach and Steve Macadam

Turn habitual reactivity into wise response, welcome the full range of emotions (yours and others), and practice self-care to nurture your resilience and fortitude

In Module 3, you’ll continue the inner work that is unique to this program. You’ll gain an empowering new understanding of your emotions and the intelligence they contain. You’ll explore self-care practices to relax and de-stress. And you’ll learn ways to tap into the bottomless wellsprings of energy, enthusiasm, and creativity that are available within.

Highlights:
  • How to stay open to learning new things and unleash the innate creativity and innovative ideas within yourself and your colleagues
  • The principles and practices of energetic self-care—your pathway to thriving in a world of relentlessly rising demand and complexity
  • Leading with intentionality—including how to refine and clarify your purpose, tune out distractions and noisy critics, express your vision and get others on board
  • Emotional expertise and empowered vulnerability: How to receive the vital messages your feelings contain, how to remain centered when temperatures rise, and how to create a safe space where all of our feelings are welcome
  • Featured teachers in Module 2 include Melissa Bernstein, Melissa Carter, Anese Cavanaugh, Jack Kornfield, and Tami Simon

Master the key interpersonal skills that lead to high engagement and exceptional teamwork

In Module 4 we create intentional environments where there is an energized flow in the work—environments in which people feel valued and seen as a result of distinct leadership styles that support the outcomes we seek for our teams. Here, you’ll discover how to apply your own collaborative style to build a company culture rooted in clarity, mutual understanding and respect, and genuine kindness.

Highlights:
  • How to engage in difficult dialogue and address workplace conflict in a human, “people first” way (instead of the familiar yet cold “it’s just business” mentality)
  • The secrets to effective and sustainable teamwork and task management
  • Prioritizing truth telling, embracing hard conversations, and acting with integrity
  • Featured teachers in Module 4 include Jacqueline Carter, Scott Shute, Tami Simon, Jeremy Hunter, Melissa Bernstein, and more

Let go of what is outdated and bring forth what is wanted and needed now.

Where do you want to go in your work life? Is there a risky yet exciting plan for your business you’ve been keeping close to the vest? Do you feel like you need to make a big change, but you’re lacking mentorship, emotional support, or other hard-to-find resources? In this module, you’ll move toward a clearer vision of yourself and your career, with actionable ways to get unstuck, prioritize what matters most (and stick to it), and share the fruits of inner transformation on the outer level to help create the future we aspire to see.

Highlights:
  • The “Reinventable You”—learn how to get unstuck if you’re in a rut, reclaim your receptivity to new ideas, and embrace change with flexibility and trust
  • Navigating workplace transitions with ease and grace
  • Discernment around what’s actually working well already versus the areas that need improvement (if not a total overhaul)
  • Featured teachers in Module 5 include Jeremy Hunter, Tami Simon, and Nataly Kogan

Respond to your personal assignment to remake your work and our world

Would you rather be on the leading edge of change, or left in its wake? Our final module will give you the scaffolding, support, and confidence to take the deep learning of this program into the world and make the changes you want to see happen.

Highlights:
  • How to become an empowered agent of positive transformation at this time when it’s anything but “business as usual”
  • Leading with confidence and competence in times of uncertainty and disruption
  • Bringing your vision into the world (no matter what stage of development you’re in)
  • Featured teachers in Module 6 include Jeremy Hunter, Tami Simon, Tara Mohr, Otto Scharmer, and Sharon Salzberg

Yes! As the Inner MBA program is 100% virtual, we welcome English-speakers from around the world. To view a map of the 90 countries our past and present members call home, go here.

The Inner MBA program includes both on-demand learning and live sessions with our elite group of business leaders, spiritual teachers, and professors. Recordings are always made available within the member area, so you can revisit the material at any time. 

You also have the option to meet with a small group of peers monthly, at times your group mutually agrees upon. This community is where the material comes alive for many participants, and we can’t wait to see you there. 

The Inner MBA is a 24-week program, and enrollment opens just once each year. The next program starts on September 20, 2025, and ends in March 2026.

We’ve crafted The Inner MBA program with a combination of self-paced elements and live sessions, recognizing both the demands of busy schedules and our diverse member community spanning multiple time zones throughout the United States and globally.

The program progresses through weekly discovery themes that build sequentially upon one another. All live events and discussions are recorded and distributed, allowing participants to access the material if they missed the session or wish to review it later. Every week offers optional pathways to explore topics more deeply, along with multiple opportunities to connect with fellow community members.

You’ll be able to connect, network, and collaborate in the Inner MBA community forum throughout the program at times that work best for your schedule.

There will also be several live sessions each month with the Inner MBA mentors that we recommend attending live if you can, so that you can participate in the live Q&A portion of the sessions. (If you can’t make the live sessions, you can always access the recordings later inside your Inner MBA members area.)

We estimate you’ll spend 60 to 90 minutes per week watching or listening to video teachings, participating in Q&As, engaging in exercises and practices, and reading course materials. If you want to go deeper, there will be optional reading material and exercises offered for those seeking further resources and additional learning.

You will not be required to submit assignments for “grading,” as you would in a traditional educational setting. The work is simply to engage in the way that fits your learning style: watch, participating with peer groups in a way that works best for you.

To receive your Certificate of Completion, you must mark each piece of video content in the six modules as complete within the learning platform.

If you begin the Inner MBA program and decide to withdraw prior to October 20, 2025, any tuition you have paid will be refunded to you. No refunds will be issued after this date except in cases of medical necessity or emergency, with proper documentation, and will incur at minimum a 15% cancellation fee.

Yes. We know that times feel precarious for many of us in 2025! We offer partial scholarships to applicants in financial need. If that describes you, or if you have other circumstances which make paying full tuition an insurmountable challenge, we strongly encourage you to apply. 

APPLICATIONS ARE CURRENTLY BEING ACCEPTED.

Please complete your application here. 

Yes. Small businesses, non-profits and corporations alike often see value in sending cohorts through the program together.  We offer special pricing for small, medium, and large groups from the same company or organization. Please email innermba@soundstrue.com for more details.

  • ! icon@3xCreated with Sketch. COVID-19 Update:

We are taking the health of all Inner MBA enrollees very seriously. We’ve made a few additional options available in your enrollment process.

If you are uncertain about traveling to the in-person immersion events in September 2020 and April 2021, you may now enroll for the Virtual Only Program, and then upgrade later to the In-Person Immersion Events & Virtual Program if you become more comfortable with travel.

Alternately, if you’d like to enroll in the In-Person Immersion Events & Virtual Program, you can downgrade to the Virtual Only option if you need to due to travel conditions.

To support anyone experiencing financial hardship during this time, we have opened up several more scholarships than we initially planned to, to make sure no student who wants to attend is turned away for financial reasons.
