Coaches with Founder Experience

At Abroad, we deeply value practical wisdom—experience-based insights gained by sitting in the founder’s seat. Our coaches intimately understand the expectations, pressure, and key drivers of the challenges you face behind the scenes. Founders see our coaches as trusted allies, people they can turn to who aren’t investors, board members, team members, or significant others. They understand the depths of your challenges. 

We conducted a landmark global study on the mindsets and well-being of founders

Based on Global Research & Insights

Abroad researched the minds of 1,339 founders across four continents to understand the drivers of behind-the-scenes challenges entrepreneurs face. The good news is our findings also show that with coaching and mindset development within a supportive community, founders can radically transform their entrepreneurial experience. It is possible to achieve your greatest impact while feeling balanced and well.

Scaling with Your Team and Organization

Finding a fantastic coach is great, but most individual coaches can’t scale with your organization. At Abroad, we’ve developed a global coaching roster, analytics, and platform to support your team through every stage of growth. Whether you’re navigating a startup, scaling up, or approaching an M&A or IPO, we’re here to guide your journey.

It’s a wonderful feeling when you have the full support of your nation, ecosystem, and VC/PE fund to invest in your personal and professional development. This is why Abroad is forming partnership with funds and ecosystems globally to offer subsidized leadership and team development to founders and their teams. Abroad currently has subsidized programs running in New Zealand, Singapore, and Chicago, and stay-tuned as our partnership network expands.
