Meet our Founders
Steve Gilman
Co-founder & CEO
Steve Gilman began his career in two of the greatest skill development programs in the world, professional sports and the US military.
Steve was selected by the Detroit Tigers in 2008 after graduating Yale University. Steve was exposed to world-class upskilling programs that draft talented teenagers and develop them into elite professionals. And the stakes are high, with hundreds of millions of dollars at stake for players and staff, and billions on the line for the organizations who succeed.
After his professional baseball career, Steve joined the Defense Intelligence Agency as an Intelligence Officer, where he became the youngest member of his office to earn the rank of GG-13. He primarily worked on counterproliferation missions and served overseas out of Defense Attache Offices at the US Embassy in Cairo and the US Embassy in Abu Dhabi. During his time at the Department of Defense, he conducted operations with Navy Special Warfare – he was exposed to how special operations relied on upskilling elite personnel into the most effective fighting force in the world.
Upon graduating from Columbia Business School and joining the private sector, Steve was surprised to find corporate skill development programs lagging behind his previous experiences, and he has since made it his mission to bring the best-in-class methodologies from sports and the military into the corporate world for the betterment of businesses and employees alike.
Steve graduated from Yale University (B.S.) and Columbia Business School (M.B.A.). He was formerly the co-founder & COO of Blockparty, a tech-enabled live event company backed by Live Nation Entertainment.
Steve received a direct commission into the Navy, serving as a Lieutenant. He guest lectures at Yale School of Management and Columbia University and invests in/advises early-stage technology companies.
