The Operative Protocol is a framework meant to be used. It is designed for real problems and real people, and reading it is only the start. Coaching is where the protocol gets applied to your situation, with Brian working through it alongside you.
Operative Protocol Coaching
Coaching is individual, one on one, and runs eight to ten sessions.
There is no syllabus. Each session begins with a specific challenge, decision, or pattern that is not resolving on its own, and then moves through the protocol deliberately. You leave each session with a course of action you can start on before the next one.
The Process
Intake
We identify the presenting challenge and map it to the appropriate entry point in the protocol. No pre-work required.
Protocol Work
Sessions move through the seven steps, from The Knock through Foundations, at the pace the material demands. Some steps take a few minutes and others take a full session, depending on what the problem needs.
Action & Integration
Each session closes with a concrete next action grounded in your own analysis. In follow-up sessions we review what changed since the last action, what did not, and what to adjust.
Who This Is For
Masons who have read the book and want to apply the protocol to something specific. Leaders working through an unresolved decision. Anyone who suspects the lodge's symbolic architecture is pointing at something real and wants to find out what that is.
Non-Masons are welcome. The protocol applies to any sufficiently complex human problem, whether or not you have been through the degrees.
