Your LMS teaches the job. Who teaches them to lead?
A manager can pass every required course and still freeze the first time they have to correct a friend, push a strong performer who's coasting, or run a shift with half a crew. CoachAcademy is leadership training for restaurant and store managers, built for that moment.
Leadership doesn't show up on a completion report.
Promoted Friday. Running the building alone Saturday.
Nobody hands a new manager a playbook for the first hard conversation. They learn it on the floor, usually the expensive way.
The first time you have to correct a friend.
Yesterday you worked the line together. Today you're the one who has to say it isn't good enough.
Half a crew and a full lobby.
Nobody remembers the plan. They remember what the new manager did when it broke.
Those moments don't live in a course catalog. They live on the floor. That's where CoachAcademy aims. Get them wrong, and your crew is the one who walks.
It starts with Lead.
Every Leader Needs Followers
The five keys that spell M.O.D.E.L., taught in order, one module at a time, the way they're taught when I'm in the room. Five core modules, a capstone, and two bonus modules for anyone who wants the full run.
Finish the core and earn M.O.D.E.L. Certified. Finish everything and it's Full Season.
"I've watched good people get promoted into leadership and handed nothing but a set of keys. CoachAcademy is the workshop I'd run in your building if I could be in every one of them."
How a module runs
The Huddle.
Sets up the skill before you touch it.
The Lessons.
Short videos, one idea each, built to watch between rushes.
The Walkthrough.
A run back through what just landed.
The Rep.
One deliberate attempt on the floor before the next module opens.
A module, start to finish: the intro, the lessons, the recap and the challenge, checked off as you go.
Short lessons, with captions for a loud back office.
Completion tells you they finished. Plus-Minus tells you if it worked.
Every module asks the same question twice. Before the lesson: how confident are you at this? After the rep: how about now? The difference is Plus-Minus, the number most learning platforms can't give you.
Not who finished. Whether anything changed.
The books come with it.
All four books by Jason E. Brooks live inside CoachAcademy. Read them in the app, save them for offline, or download the PDF. The course teaches the skill. The book is where you go back for it.
The Library: every book, with Read, Save offline and Download PDF.
Run it like a program, not a catalog.
- Assign it. Date it. Done.To a role, a store or a person. CoachAcademy sends the reminder, so nobody chases anyone with a spreadsheet.
- The Scoreboard.Built the way the book teaches one: the result on top, the moves that drive it underneath.
- Next to the coaching.Development lives in the same system as visits, walks and one-on-ones, so the next conversation starts with context.
- Go back anytime.A finished module reopens as often as someone wants. The manager rewatching a key in month four is exactly who this was built for.
Assign a course to everyone it's written for, chosen stores, your team or chosen people, with a due date.
Finish the course and the certificate is waiting on the course page.
Keep your LMS. It has a job. So does this.
