Decide Beyond Yourself: Catch Your Default Decision Pattern, Lead With Intention
Jose M Bermejo
The C-Suite Coach
The ONLY program that starts by identifying YOUR personal decision-making bias.
Every result traces back to a decision. Most are made on autopilot.
Decision-making isn't a skill.
It's THE performance skill.
I'll help you install a decision system to make better, more confident choices permanently.
You won't just learn a system — you'll embody it.
You'll know YOUR decision default mode, and you'll have 6 pressure-test scenarios to override it.
Here are the flaws I've observed in most decision-making programs — and why I created this experience:
#1 They give you a list of 50+ biases to memorize. They don't reveal the ONE that runs your decisions.
The reality: your identity has one dominant pattern — Control, Safety, Approval, Certainty, Speed, Harmony, Achievement, or Complexity. Until you know yours, you're unconsciously biased.
#2 They assume executives are in a clear state when deciding. They don't test you under pressure.
The reality: your fight-flight-freeze response hijacks executive thinking before any framework can help.
#3 They skip problem diagnosis, jumping right away to teach about decision-making.
The reality: under pressure, executives skip diagnosis and jump to solutions. Most decisions fail not because the choice was wrong, but because the problem was wrong.
What you’ll learn
We'll start by knowing what you are biased towards. Just then, you can see it coming, override it, and perform with speed and conviction.

Testimonials
I can't recommend Jose enough. His deep experience in operational and strategic decisions helped our product marketing, innovation and marketing teams make decisions in alignment, stop overanalyzing, and commit resources with confidence. He helped us diagnose the real opportunity, gathered the data to make the decisions and brought massive clarity on where to commit resources, fast.
Julie Taylor
VP of Marketing, Confidencial.ioJose helped me see we'd been solving the wrong problem. Once we diagnosed the real opportunity, he helped us decide what to pivot towards—and went from 0 to 30 pilots in a month!! His simulation approach and decision architecture models gave me the confidence to decide fast and commit resources fully. He should charge more!
Karan Singh

By making bold, radical candor questions, he helps our executive team realize if we're making the right choices, and if we're optimizing them for performance, from revenue to operational decisions. Don't just join his programs, hire him as your Performance Advisor!
Brendon McDonald
CEO, Digital Smile DesignAbsolutely eye-opening! Jose helped us diagnose the go-to-market decisions we've been avoiding—then we made confident choices in two weeks. The live sessions are where it clicks: you're applying the system in real-time and getting immediate coaching with radical candor. I finally stopped second-guessing and avoiding decisions.
