Supporting Your Organization/Business/Institution by Forming a Sprint Team

How Hosted Sprints Work

You recruit the Sprinters and Coach Sara will take it from there!

Participants post on LinkedIn each weekday for 6 days and engage with a select number of posts from fellow sprinters. All participants receive thought-provoking daily prompts to assist with this process. I host pre- and post-Sprint virtual meetings to help prepare participants, provide an opportunity to reflect on experience and answer any questions they may have about the process.

Cost: Starting at $800 for 5 to 20 participants.

I want to form a sprint team!

Coming Soon!

Whether you’re a freelancer/solopreneur, part of the STEM community, educator, or Renaissance Person, LinkedIn is a space where you can build community with “your people” and make new connections. Join in for one of my future sprints and boost your presence on this ever expanding platform!

Past Sprints

I got so much value out of the sprint—the conversations I had with other participants were amazing. Within a few days of starting the sprint, I got four messages from people interested in working with me, and I am in multiple talks about a variety of interesting-sounding projects. I was blown away by the positive responses I got.

Bailey Lang, Book Coach | Editor | Ghostwriter

This sprint was a really good use of the LinkedIn network and community. It served many purposes: we all met new people, made new connections, increased our visibility, and above all, kept each other’s spirits up during this difficult time. Thanks for this experience, Sara Kobilka! It was well worth it!

Hilary Lozar, STEM Educator, STEM Coordinator

Thank you Sara! For your invaluable career coaching and for leading our LinkedIn sprints! Your guidance has been such a confidence booster, pushing me to share my story and engage in ways I hadn’t before.

Nancy Scales-Coddington, STEM Leader | Media Producer | Science Communicator

Thank you again for the great sprint! it really got me out of a rut with posting and I feel so energized now!

Kathleen O’Donnell, Creative and Curious Freelance Writer | B2B Content Writer | Copywriter

I’m still connected with many of the sprinters I met and they’re still actively engaging with my posts. Thank you for building a community of support that lasts long after the sprint is over.
