ADMISSION OFFICE

Owner Boot Camps are divided into two categories:

Invitation Only Boot Camps

Application-Based Boot Camps

To qualify for any business boot camp, applicants must:

Have a legally registered business

Be 18 years of age or older

Complete all application requirements

Boot Camps at The Owner School last one month and include a combination of in-person and online curriculum. While the program itself is one month long, participants are expected to meet ongoing owner benchmarks in partnership with their dean to stay on track toward achieving their 12-month business goals.

While participation in The Owner School Boot Camp experience is highly recommended, there are times when applicants may be placed on a waitlist if no in-person boot camp aligns with their AI-matched registration profile. In such cases, we suggest one of the following alternatives:

Begin an individual journey using our official textbook

Form a small group of at least three participants to enroll in an asynchronous boot camp experience

These options ensure you can continue progressing toward your goals, even while waiting for an in-person opportunity.

Invitation-Only Boot Camps are cohort-based programs designed for high-potential, rising star entrepreneurs. These highly selective boot camps are built around strong peer networking and include intensive mentorship to support rapid business growth and leadership development.

Corporate Boot Camps Designed for Business Owners and Their Teams

Unlike traditional consulting that simply points out problems and walks away, TOS Boot Camps are tailored, immersive experiences designed to align your team and empower your workforce to tackle your organization’s toughest challenges head-on.

As a business owner, achieving alignment and building a high-performing team is critical to long-term success. 

TOS Boot Camps are customized to help overcome the most pressing issues facing your organization, including:

Ineffective or inconsistent manager feedback

Low-performing sales teams or poor sales conversion rates

High employee turnover and retention issues

Lack of accountability and ownership across departments

Poor communication between teams or leadership and staff

Unclear goals or misaligned company vision and values

Burnout and disengagement among employees

Gaps in leadership development and succession planning

Resistance to change or lack of adaptability

Underperforming culture or toxic team dynamics

Each boot camp is designed with real, measurable outcomes that create lasting change—not just temporary fixes.

Corporate Boot Camps are built on our proprietary business turnaround and empowerment methodology, which we call "consulting through education." This unique approach creates lasting impact by reaching both the hearts and minds of business leaders—well beyond our time on-site. These boot camps are transformational, driving measurable improvements to an organization’s bottom line. When designing each personalized program, we carefully consider key elements such as interpersonal relationships, bite-sized learning, business disruption, and the specific goals of the owner.

We’re not consultants—we’re experienced business professionals who tackle some of the most complex challenges facing small and mid-sized businesses, using a combination of technology and community support. While consulting has its place, we believe that our boot camps—grounded in educational integration—are the most effective path to turning businesses around and helping them achieve lasting success.

Our boot camps follow a structured, school-like approach: you either pass or fail. We don’t sugarcoat the truth or tell you what you want to hear—we deliver the insights and tools you need to reach your organizational goals.
