Not your typical business event...

Join an elite circle of Entrepreneurs, Executives, and Experts for an exclusive two-day event where visionaries connect and transform their businesses together.

Our formula is simple

  • 30 high-caliber business leaders +
  • Exclusive Cincinnati venue +
  • Collaborative problem-solving +
  • Structured networking opportunities =
  • High-impact event to efficiently optimize your business and personal life.

This Workshop is designed for one thing: ROT - Return on Time

Time is your most limited resource. This two-day intensive is your chance to zoom out, get strategic, and solve what's slowing you down — with a room full of experienced operators and top performers acting as your executive strategy team.

"I'm hard to impress... but the last workshop was different. It gave me the intellectual capital I needed — a place to talk things through and get to the answer. That space alone was invaluable."

The Format:

  • You bring a process, challenge, or idea you want to optimize.
  • The group dives in with sharp questions and battle-tested strategies.
  • You leave with clarity, action steps, and momentum.
  • Then we move to the next person — and repeat.

Two full days. No fluff. No filler. Just execution.

"I was a ChatGPT super user before this event — and I walked away with tools and strategies I had never seen before. I started implementing them while I was there."

What You'll Walk Away With:

  • Immediate wins: walk away with your process streamlined and real-time input you can use now,
  • Big-picture clarity: spot inefficiencies and opportunities that were hiding in plain sight,
  • Leverage tech smarter: get practical ideas for how to use AI and automation in your workflows,
  • A mindset shift that helps you see what's possible — and how to get there faster,

"The retreat wasn't full of fluff or surface-level stuff. It was real people, sharing real challenges — and solving them together."

  • Fortune 500 Execs from Chipotle, Starbucks, Airbnb
  • Top cybersecurity experts and elite hackers

What our attendees say

Jason Mewis

President & Founder @ Engcomp
"Attending the Baja OG event was truly transformative. I formed deep connections with inspiring individuals and gained invaluable insights that have already made a lasting impact. In fact, just one week after the event, I launched a new business with one of my OG connections! Every aspect of the experience was thoughtfully curated, set against an absolutely breathtaking backdrop. I can't recommend it highly enough!"

"The power of Hot Seats is exponential when you bring talented people together who share openly, with great vulnerability, their thought leadership and openly ask for help. It's hard, frankly, for anyone to ask for help. At the OG Retreat, there's so much talent in the room. To pay any one of these people to consult with you for a day is priceless, but to get all this together in one room, weighing in, elevates the impact."
Dan Guido

"I came to this OG Retreat because I really needed a vacation with other ambitious entrepreneurs—it's all about that social connection and stimulating conversations. I'm weird and it's hard to find really solid connections with people because of the position that I'm in my work. But here I was, surrounded by people who get me."
Dr. Donald Shrump
