Everything you need to know

The CEO Growth Planner 2026 is a 662-page strategic operating system across 4 quarterly hardcover volumes, designed for founders, CEOs, and business leaders. Q1 is 164 pages; Q2, Q3, and Q4 are 166 pages each. It combines daily intention pages, weekly planning, monthly OKR tracking, quarterly CEO financial dashboards, and a Life Balance Audit.

Built on Swiss typographic principles using Times Now and Neue Haas Grotesk fonts on a 12-column modular grid. Each quarter has 5 unique cover colours (20 total), chosen to match the seasonal mood of those months. Available as individual quarterly hardcovers and a discounted full-year bundle.

Individual quarters ($44.99 each) are self-contained hardcover volumes covering 3 months — Q1 is 164 pages, Q2–Q4 are 166 pages each. Each includes its own monthly themes, OKRs, CEO Financial Dashboard, 65+ daily pages, 5 unique cover colours, and all core features. Perfect if you want to start mid-year or test the system first.

The Full Year Bundle ($143.99) includes all four quarterly volumes — Q1 through Q4 — at a 20% discount (saving you $35.97 vs. buying individually). The bundle gives you the complete 12-theme architecture, all daily pages, all 4 quarterly dashboards, the Year-End CEO Assessment, Future Self Letters, and the 2027 Vision Preview that only comes with Q4.

Each month has a dedicated theme that guides your focus:

  • Q1: January — Intention (Foundation & Vision), February — Clarity (Financial Leadership), March — Connection (Team & Culture)
  • Q2: April — Growth (Sales & Revenue), May — Systems (Operations & Flow), June — Presence (Brand & Market)
  • Q3: July — Innovation (Product Vision), August — Influence (Relationships), September — Resilience (Execution Power)
  • Q4: October — Expansion (Scaling Up), November — Legacy (Impact & Future), December — Reflection (Renewal)

Each month opens with a curated essay, mindset prompts, and a tinted "Feels Like" bookmark spread you can find by touch in the printed book.

Each quarterly volume includes a professional CEO Financial Dashboard designed for executive-level financial review. It covers:

  • Revenue & Profit: Top-line revenue, gross margin, net profit tracking
  • Recurring Revenue: MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) and ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) for subscription businesses
  • Unit Economics: Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), Lifetime Value (LTV), and the CAC/LTV ratio
  • Cash Position: Cash flow, burn rate, and runway calculation
  • Expenses: OPEX, payroll, and discretionary spend breakdown
  • Key Ratios: Debt-to-equity, quick ratio, and custom KPIs

These are the board-ready metrics your business demands, printed in the format where your planning actually happens.

Each month includes a dedicated OKR (Objectives and Key Results) planning page with:

  • 3 Objectives: Your most important goals for the month
  • 9 Key Results: 3 measurable outcomes per objective
  • Target vs. Actual Fields: Set your target at the start, record actuals at the end
  • 10-Point Scoring: Rate achievement per objective for honest self-assessment

This transforms vague annual goals into measurable monthly execution that compounds across 12 months. Unlike annual planning that loses focus by March, monthly OKRs keep you accountable and allow rapid course correction.

The Life Balance Audit is a quarterly self-assessment across 8 CEO-specific pillars:

  • Business Growth
  • Leadership Capability
  • Strategic Clarity
  • Health & Vitality
  • Key Relationships
  • Finances & Wealth
  • Learning & Growth
  • Spirit & Purpose

You complete a baseline assessment at the start of Q1, then check in every quarter. By Q4, you have a clear visual trajectory of how you have grown — not just as a business leader, but as a person. Because the company cannot outgrow the person leading it.

The CEO Growth Planner 2026 is a 6″×9″ format (152mm × 229mm) — the ideal size that fits in a briefcase and lies flat on a desk. The quarterly editions are hardcover with matte laminate case binding, built for daily executive use. Q1 is 164 pages; Q2, Q3, and Q4 are 166 pages each — 662 pages total across all four volumes. Printed on premium white paper with full-colour interior.

20 colour editions total, with 5 unique colours per quarter, each palette matched to the seasonal mood:

  • Q1 — Cool & Fresh: Sage Slate, Deep Sage, Transformative Teal, Pewter, Storm Grey
  • Q2 — Warm & Earthy: Warm Earth, Camel, Warm Sand, Dusty Rose, Terracotta
  • Q3 — Bold & Natural: Midnight Navy, Forest Green, Olive Drab, Slate Blue, Mocha Brown
  • Q4 — Deep & Reflective: Charcoal, Ink Black, Burgundy, Silhouette, Gold Accent

Use the colour picker below to preview each edition.

The CEO Growth Planner uses a Swiss typographic design system with two premium font families:

  • Times Now (serif) — Used for headings, month names, and literary elements. An elegant, modern serif with classical proportions
  • Neue Haas Grotesk Display (sans-serif) — Used for body text, labels, and functional elements. The original Helvetica design from the Haas Type Foundry, in its purest form

The layout follows a 12-column modular grid — the same system used by the world's most respected newspapers and design publications. This creates consistent spacing, precise alignment, and a reading experience that feels both professional and effortless.

The CEO Growth Planner 2026 is designed for:

  • Startup founders who need financial clarity alongside daily execution
  • CEOs and managing directors leading established businesses through growth or transformation
  • C-suite executives (COOs, CFOs, CTOs) who want a strategic planning tool that matches their responsibility level
  • Serial entrepreneurs managing multiple ventures and needing structured quarterly review
  • Aspiring leaders who want to think and plan like a CEO before they have the title

If you keep a spreadsheet and a journal open at the same time — this planner was built for you.

Most planners offer daily pages and monthly calendars. The CEO Growth Planner 2026 offers a complete operating system:

  • Financial dashboards — No other planner includes quarterly P&L, unit economics, burn rate, and runway tracking
  • OKR scoring system — Not just goals, but measurable key results with target vs. actual comparison
  • 8-pillar Life Balance Audit — CEO-specific, not generic wellness. Tracks leadership capability, strategic clarity, and purpose alongside health and relationships
  • 12-theme architecture — Each month has a strategic focus that builds on the previous one
  • Decision frameworks — Emergency decision matrix and values-based alignment process
  • Premium typography — Swiss 12-column grid with Times Now and Neue Haas Grotesk, not mass-produced template design

It is the difference between a daily planner with a business vocabulary and a strategic operating system that happens to include daily pages.

Yes — that is exactly why the quarterly format exists. Each quarter is a self-contained volume (Q1: 164pp, Q2–Q4: 166pp) with its own themes, OKRs, financial dashboard, daily pages, and 5 unique cover colours. You can start with Q2 in April or Q3 in July without missing context.

Each quarterly volume includes its own Life Balance Audit check-in and full planning infrastructure, so you get the complete system for whatever quarter you are in. If you find the system works, you can buy the remaining quarters or wait for the 2027 edition to do the full year.

Each daily page (Monday through Friday, 261 total across the full year) includes:

  • Morning Intention: Space to set your primary focus and mindset for the day
  • Curated Quote: An inspirational quote from a business leader, thinker, or builder who has done what you are doing
  • Day Structure: Space for your schedule, priorities, and key tasks
  • Evening Reflection: End-of-day review capturing what moved, what did not, and what you learned

The daily pages are designed for 5-10 minutes of focused writing in the morning and 5 minutes of honest reflection in the evening. Not a time drain — a thinking tool.

The CEO Growth Planner 2026 is available exclusively on Amazon in all major marketplaces worldwide. You can choose from:

  • Individual Quarters: Q1 ($44.99), Q2 ($44.99), Q3 ($44.99), Q4 ($44.99)
  • Full Year Bundle: All four quarters for $143.99 (save 20%)

Each quarter has 5 unique cover colours (20 total across the year). 6″×9″ hardcover with matte laminate finish. Amazon Prime members get free shipping on eligible orders. Use the colour picker and buy buttons on this page to go directly to your preferred edition.

Yes. Within each quarter, all 5 colour editions share the exact same interior. The only difference is the cover colour. Each quarter has its own unique palette of 5 colours — chosen to match the seasonal mood of those months. Whether you choose Sage Slate (Q1) or Ink Black (Q4), you get identical content, layout, and design inside.

Three practical advantages:

  • Portability: A 164–166 page hardcover fits easily in a bag. A 662-page volume is a reference book. You carry the quarter you are in
  • Focus: Each quarter has its own themes, its own colour palette, and its own arc. You are not flipping past October pages in February — you are fully in the current quarter
  • Flexibility: Start mid-year. Gift a single quarter. Replace a damaged volume. Each quarter has its own unique set of 5 cover colours

The quarterly format also creates natural psychological milestones. Finishing a volume and reaching for the next one is a tangible marker of progress — something a single annual book cannot provide.
