Creating The Unlimited Company: A CEO-Led Transformation
From CEO-Dependent to People-Powered: The Journey Reserved for Just Ten Organizations
Most companies operate at 40% of their potential, constrained by invisible beliefs that limit what people think is possible. An Unlimited Company operates differently.
It's an organization where potential isn't capped by limiting beliefs. Where growth comes from unlocking what's already there, not just adding more resources. Where people bring their full capabilities to work, not just what they think is expected. And the transformation starts with you – the CEO.
A Rare Opportunity for Profound Change
We accept only ten CEOs and their organizations at any given time.
This isn't arbitrary scarcity. It's because this transformation requires direct, hands-on work from both Unlimiting Co. founders – Howard Mann and Nancy Schandler Karan – with you and your leadership team.
There are no junior consultants. No implementation teams. Just the founders working directly with you throughout the entire journey. This level of personal attention and customization cannot be scaled beyond these select ten partnerships.
The Transformation Journey
Unlike traditional consulting that focuses on systems or strategy alone, the Unlimiting Process is a comprehensive, CEO-led transformation that turns your organization from belief-limited to belief-powered.
-
The foundation of every Unlimited Company is a liberated leader.
We begin by identifying and dismantling the limiting beliefs that have kept you, the CEO, operating below your full potential – and by extension, kept your company constrained.
Through intensive one-on-one work, we help you recognize how your own beliefs about leadership, control, delegation, and possibility have shaped your company's ceiling.
This isn't just reflection – it's active rewiring of the beliefs that have defined your leadership until now.
“I realized I was the anchor weighing down my own company. Not because I wasn't working hard enough, but because my beliefs about what was possible were too small.”
–Manufacturing CEO -
An Unlimited Company requires a leadership team aligned in belief, not just in strategy.
With new beliefs established at the CEO level, we extend the transformation to your leadership team through structured belief mapping, targeted interventions, and collective recalibration.
This isn't team building. It's belief rebuilding – creating a leadership cohort that operates from possibility rather than limitation.
“The shift in our leadership meetings was immediate. We stopped talking about why things couldn't happen and started finding ways to make them happen.”
–SaaS Founder -
Systems, processes, and culture must reinforce unlimited thinking, not constrain it.
We help you redesign the core elements of your organization to support and amplify unlimited beliefs:
Decision-making frameworks that expand possibility
Communication structures that elevate rather than restrict
Performance systems that unlock potential instead of just measuring output
Meeting rituals that reinforce unlimited thinking
This is where transformation becomes operational – where new beliefs become tangible business practices.
“We didn't just think differently. We operated differently. And that's when the results started to multiply.”
–Professional Services CEO -
The final phase embeds unlimited thinking into every aspect of your business.
With the foundation established, we guide you through applying the Unlimiting methodology to your core business challenges:
Strategic decision-making through an unlimited lens
Talent development that builds on unlimiting principles
Innovation processes that reject artificial limitations
Growth initiatives powered by expanded possibility
This is where the transformation delivers its greatest impact – in real business outcomes that would have seemed impossible before.
“We achieved in six months what I thought would take three years. Not by working harder, but by removing the barriers we'd built in our own minds.”
–E-commerce Founder
What Makes an Unlimited Company Different
An Unlimited Company doesn't just perform better – it feels different. Both for the people who work there and the customers they serve.
For leaders: Leadership becomes energizing rather than depleting
For teams: Work becomes a place of growth rather than limitation
For individuals: Potential is recognized and unleashed rather than constrained
For customers: Innovation and service reach levels previously thought impossible
The transformation isn't just philosophical – it delivers measurable results:
40-60% increases in innovation outputs
Dramatic improvements in talent attraction and retention
Leadership teams that solve problems instead of escalating them
Revenue and profit growth that exceeds industry benchmarks
