“I've taken quite a few online courses now, and Team Performance Training has been by far my favorite. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in taking their life to the next level. There's a compounding effect on your life when you apply this world-class toolset effectively, so the sooner you start, the sooner you will start to receive those compounding gains.”

Bryan Lee — Product Manager, Datadog

“Team Performance Training had an almost immediate effect on my workday, my personal day, and life as a whole. I've always been organized but I plan better now, which has brought some incredible peace of mind. I feel like I'm more present and less stressed, and I'm finally working on the important things!”

Anjali Oberoi — Principal, Bernoulli Finance

Team Performance Training is not another productivity course.

Instead of passively watching videos, you’re actively engaging in experiments which will change your life.

Instead of flying solo, you’re joining a dream team of successful executives, pushing each other to new heights.

If you’re ready to multiply your output and reach the next level as a leader, we would love for you to join us.

“Team Performance Training is about achieving clarity and focus on what is most important in your life. My income went up, my stress levels went down, and I now have a framework to maintain a sense of control in my life.”

Franklin Mora — Principal, Open Road Alliance

Frequently Asked Questions:

What will I learn in Team Performance Training?

We will teach you how to multiply your output, consistently perform at your peak, and systematically complete your projects faster.

The only thing standing between you and your wildest imagination is becoming the type of person capable of achieving that vision. In short, we will give you the tools to become capable of achieving any goal you choose to pursue.

What is the curriculum?

The curriculum builds and expands upon the recommendations, prompts, and experiments found in Experiment Without Limits. If you downloaded our workbook and thought, “I wish I had time to implement all this,” this program is for you.

Team Performance Training incorporates ideas, techniques, and tools from many different sources. These include frameworks from operations management, behavioral science, systems dynamics, and more.

Most importantly, our curriculum is the culmination of 500+ coaching conversations over the last five years with some of the world’s brightest minds in our ongoing mission to deconstruct excellence.

Who is Team Performance Training designed for?

This program is designed for busy and ambitious leaders at small to medium organizations. We personally review every single application with a hard cap of fifteen spots in each cohort.

Expect a curated mix of founders, executives, and investors. We define “executive” pretty broadly—if you are working on something meaningful, this training is for you.

What do alumni say about Team Performance Training?

Don’t take it from us. There are a few voluntary testimonials on this page and two dozen more we’re happy to share offline.

TPT Alumni Survey Results (n=30)

• “What was your return on money invested in TPT?” = 9.2/10

• “What was your return on time invested in TPT?” = 9.1/10

• An unheard-of NPS Score of 100 (100% of alumni would recommend the course to others!)

What are my chances of being accepted into the program?

There are only fifteen spots available in each cohort, so we recommend getting your application in early.

The first four cohorts had a ~25% application acceptance rate. If you’ve made it this far, your chances are likely higher.

We look for two things in each application:

1. Commitment — Are you ready to show up, be present, and take the actions necessary to achieve results?

2. Positive Impact — Is the rest of the cohort made better because you are in the room?

We’re not concerned with what you have done. We’re interested in what you can do.

What happens in the team training sessions?

Each team training session is an interactive blend of four elements: presentation, coaching, feedback, and implementation.

1. Presentation — Walkthrough of core principles and supporting techniques

2. Group Coaching — Targeted guidance to remove barriers to taking action

3. Peer Feedback — Revealing blind spots, bottlenecks, and opportunities

4. Guided Implementation — Immediate application of the techniques to your life and career

Team sessions will be the fastest, most intensely productive (and fun!) two hours of your entire week.

How much time should I set aside?

To achieve maximum results during this program, I recommend setting aside a minimum of four hours per week.

• 2 hours — Live team session

• ~1.5 hours — Action Items (implementing these principles into your life!)

• ~1 hour — Resources (outsource your ongoing learning to us)

• ~0.5 hours — Implementation session (optional time to collaborate and receive feedback)

• ~0.5 hours — Group discussions in The Brain Trust

That being said, there is no speed limit for this program. I firmly believe that you will return multiples of anything you are willing to invest.

There is no “homework.” Any investment outside of team sessions is time that you are applying directly to improve your life and grow your bottom line. Any assigned action items are carefully chosen for maximum leverage.

What if I can’t make it to a training session?

This program is designed to be an interactive team experience and “showing up” ready and engaged is 90% of success. We hope you can commit to all of the 10 team sessions, especially the opening session and closing retrospective.

If something does come up last minute and you can’t make it to a session, no worries. Each session will be recorded and shared shortly afterward.

How much access do I get to Chris Sparks?

We intentionally limit the cohort size to fifteen in order to maximize personalized attention and ensure a high level of curation. That being said, this is a team program. At all times, we prioritize any discussion that will most accelerate the team as a whole.

Each team session ends with dedicated time to ask questions specific to your situation. Chris personally gives feedback on any action item submitted and answers every question asked in The Brain Trust.

If you’re interested in hands-on 1:1 attention, we recommend the Accelerated Program. The fifteen Accelerated Program alumni from our first three cohorts experienced the most dramatic transformations both during and after the program.

Are there payment plans available?

Yes. If you prefer, you can pay for Team Performance Training in three monthly installments.

The Essential Program is 3 x $1,495 and the Accelerated Program is 3 x $2,495.

Are there scholarships available?

Yes. For each cohort, we offer two partial scholarships to the Essential Program.

These scholarships are intended for founders and executives focused on creating a positive impact with preference given based on need.

If you would like to be considered for a scholarship, please note your interest in the application and we’ll be in touch.

What’s your refund policy?

We are so confident in the outcomes of Team Performance Training that we want to make your investment risk-free.

If you attend the live team sessions, complete the weekly action items, and still don’t find this program valuable, we’ll refund your full payment anytime within the first thirty days of the program.

Can I ask another question?

Yes, please do! If there’s anything not covered here, please email us directly at academy@forcingfunction.com.

We know this is a significant investment of time and money. We want you to have everything you need to make this a “hell yes.”
