Peak State Apex
The exclusive one-on-one partnership. One-on-one over twelve months
"I do not need another consultant. I need a space in which nothing is allowed to stay superficial."
My issues cannot be covered by a standard program. Every decision has personal, strategic, human, and financial consequences.
There is a lot I cannot discuss with anyone without touching interests, expectations, or dependencies.
I need a counterpart who does not go easy on me, understands my responsibility, and works with me exactly where the greatest impact is possible right now."
The complete Peak State Architecture in a one-on-one space.
But not in a rigid sequence. Apex follows the client’s reality.
Sometimes the personal state is at the center. Sometimes a key person. Sometimes a strategic decision. Sometimes a conflict in the leadership system. Sometimes a deep personal pattern.
And often all levels are at work at the same time.
What actually happens in Apex.
As in the Practitioner, an individual plan takes shape for:
- physical vitality,
- energy,
- daily structure,
- nutrition,
- movement,
- recovery,
- focus,
- emotional self-leadership,
- values,
- decisions,
- non-negotiable goals.
The difference:
Everything is tailored directly to your responsibility, your calendar, and your concrete life reality.
Apex does not work on theoretical case studies.
At the center are decisions such as:
- appointing a new managing director,
- parting ways with a partner,
- buying or selling a company,
- shaping a succession,
- realigning a leadership team,
- initiating a transformation,
- resolving a conflict with shareholders,
- limiting or accelerating growth,
- leaving a personal role,
- defining a new future.
Every decision is looked at from several levels:
- strategic,
- emotional,
- personal,
- systemic,
- financial,
- long-term.
Apex integrates the Master logic.
You work on:
- selecting key people,
- potential and limits,
- the vision and mission of individuals,
- Results Roadmaps,
- development conversations,
- difficult personnel decisions,
- handing over responsibility,
- building up successors,
- developing your inner leadership circle.
Apex integrates the Leader map.
You develop:
- the big picture,
- strategic priorities,
- leadership and decision architecture,
- roles and responsibilities,
- communication rhythms,
- leadership systems,
- development of top performers,
- organizational Peak State routines.
You analyze:
- how the organization thinks,
- how it feels,
- how it speaks,
- how it acts,
- which results emerge from that.
Apex integrates Reset.
When it becomes visible that a current situation is influenced by an old pattern, the chain of effects is worked through backwards, from:
- result,
- behavior,
- language,
- emotion,
- meaning,
- core thought,
- origin pattern.
Apex is a space for truth.
You receive:
- unfiltered feedback,
- critical questioning,
- emotional mirroring,
- strategic friction,
- clear naming of contradictions,
- confrontation with avoided decisions,
- support in implementation.
Apex connects:
- the person,
- the role,
- the family,
- the company,
- the organization,
- the future.
Because an entrepreneurial decision is rarely only entrepreneurial.
It often touches:
- identity,
- relationships,
- health,
- wealth,
- responsibility,
- lifetime,
- legacy.
Apex keeps all of these levels in view together.
Apex works where decisions are actually pending.
For example:
- before an important conversation,
- during a transformation,
- after a conflict,
- before a shareholders’ meeting,
- in an acute leadership crisis,
- in a key personnel decision,
- in a phase of high personal strain.
The result of Apex.
- anchored your Peak State more deeply,
- led your vitality more consciously,
- made central decisions,
- developed or reorganized key people,
- changed the leadership architecture of your company,
- worked through old personal patterns,
- distributed responsibility more clearly,
- redefined your own role,
- shaped your future more consciously.
Apex means: you do not develop alongside your responsibility. You develop within it, and in doing so you change everything that emanates from you.
What people say who have worked in the system.
The more successful my company became, the lonelier the decisions got. Everyone wanted something from me. But hardly anyone could really follow what was going on in my head. APEX was the first time in years that I had people who did not want to sell me anything. Who also told me: “You are lying to yourself right now.” That was uncomfortable at times. But it was exactly what I needed. Today I make decisions faster. More clearly. With more calm. And I know I no longer have to carry everything alone. That is probably the greatest luxury I have ever allowed myself.

Frequently asked questions about Peak State Apex.
What is Peak State Apex?
Peak State Apex is LeaCo Academy’s exclusive one-on-one partnership over twelve months. Apex connects all stages of development (Practitioner, Master, Leader, and Reset), but not in a rigid sequence; it follows your real responsibility. Sometimes your personal state is at the center, sometimes a key person, sometimes a strategic decision, sometimes a deep personal pattern. Often all levels are at work at the same time.
Who is Apex for?
Peak State Apex is for owner-entrepreneurs and CEOs whose issues cannot be covered by a standard program, because every decision has personal, strategic, human, and financial consequences at the same time. The typical sentence is: “I do not need another consultant. I need a space in which nothing is allowed to stay superficial.” Apex is deliberately exclusive and is aimed at people with high standards for themselves.
What distinguishes Apex from the individual programs?
Apex does not work on case studies but on your real decisions: appointing a new managing director, shaping a succession, parting ways with a partner, realigning a leadership team, buying or selling a company. Every decision is looked at strategically, emotionally, personally, systemically, and financially. And Apex intervenes in real time: before an important conversation, in a leadership crisis, before a shareholders’ meeting. You do not develop alongside your responsibility, but within it.
How does Apex work?
Peak State Apex begins with a deep dive: personal and entrepreneurial assessment, Peak State diagnostics, definition of your central Apex questions, and the architecture for the year. This is followed by twelve months of excellence sparring with monthly one-on-one sessions, intensive work phases (Reset, strategy, or leadership intensives), defined access in critical situations, and, at the end, the year-end integration with a decision on future and legacy.
Is Apex executive coaching?
Apex may contain elements of it, but it is conceived more broadly. Executive coaching usually works on your role. Apex works on your entire Peak State System: your personal architecture, your key people, the leadership architecture of your organization, and, where necessary, the origin patterns that limit your freedom to decide today. Apex keeps the person, the role, the family, the company, and the future in view together.
What do I get in Apex that I cannot get anywhere else?
Not more content, but a different degree of engagement. Apex is a space for truth: unfiltered feedback, critical questioning, clear naming of contradictions, confrontation with avoided decisions. It is not about agreeing with you, but about increasing your impact. One participant described it like this: for the first time in years, having people who did not want to sell him anything and who also told him where he was lying to himself.
Which Apex formats are there, and what do they cost?
Peak State Apex comes in two formats. Apex Exclusive includes twelve monthly sparring sessions, an individual Practitioner plan, Results Roadmaps for key people, a personal Leadership Map, an individual Reset process, two full-day intensives, a two-day Reset intensive, and up to six short interventions. Apex Signature additionally offers the highest availability, several on-site days, and work with selected key people, with a deliberately limited number of mandates. We discuss the investment in the APEX Goal Conversation, which you can book via the calendar on this page.
Who is Apex explicitly not for?
Peak State Apex is not for people who want to get as much as possible for as little investment as possible, or who are looking for a counterpart who goes easy on them. Apex is for people who regard their own development as one of the most valuable investments of all and are willing to be questioned where it moves the most.
Is APEX right for me?
30 or 45 minutes, you choose. Not a sales pitch, but clarity about whether APEX is your next step.
