Recommendations for Mastered
We’ve got some fantastic syndicates forming at the moment, but we are currently short on male participants. Our approach to Mastered syndicate formation is to try to ensure as much as possible that each syndicate is made up of people with a broad palette of experience and from a range of backgrounds.
As always, we would be delighted to welcome anyone you recommend who would benefit from the Programme and who would enrich the community. Please encourage anyone you think might be interested to get in touch, we would love to hear from them. And if they are interested, perhaps they might also like to join the upcoming Introduction to Mastered event on Tuesday 11th November? Read on for more information.
Online ‘Introduction to Mastered’ event
If you’re thinking about transitioning into a portfolio career, exploring a second career in business coaching, or simply looking to deepen your coaching skills, the Mastered programme could be the next step for you.

📅 Tuesday 11th November 2025 | 🕓 5:30pm – 7:30pm (UK) | 📍 Online
