Founder – Kairos Coaching | Author - The Kairos Code | EOS Implementer | Host - Spartan Leadership Podcast
Josh kosnick
Josh Kosnick is a leadership coach, EOS Implementer®, and USA Today & Barnes & Noble best-selling author of The Kairos Code. He works with founders, executives, and leadership teams who have built meaningful success—and are now facing the harder question of how to sustain it with clarity, integrity, and purpose.
Josh’s work is shaped by firsthand experience. Over the course of his career, he built and exited multiple businesses, navigated rapid growth, complex leadership decisions, and the personal cost that often accompanies success. Those seasons forced a deeper reckoning with priorities, identity, and the long-term impact of how leaders choose to operate. That journey ultimately became the foundation for his coaching, speaking, and writing.
As the founder of Kairos Coaching, Josh helps leaders step back from constant execution and examine the structures, assumptions, and habits shaping both their organizations and their lives. His approach is direct, thoughtful, and practical—focused less on motivation and more on decision-making, alignment, and sustainability. He challenges leaders to slow the moment down long enough to make choices that hold up under pressure and over time.
Josh is also a certified EOS Implementer®, working with leadership teams to bring clarity to vision, accountability, and execution. He is trusted by organizations such as MassMutual, Westlake Financial, Arthrex, and Northwestern Mutual to facilitate difficult conversations, strengthen leadership alignment, and help teams operate more effectively without losing sight of what matters most.
As a speaker, Josh has shared the stage with respected voices including Ben Newman, Jon Gordon, Ed Mylett, Dean Stott, and René Rodriguez. His talks resonate with leaders because they are rooted in lived experience rather than theory—addressing the real tensions leaders face as responsibility grows, stakes rise, and the margin for error narrows.
Central to Josh’s work is a belief that leadership is not just about results, but about stewardship—of people, time, energy, and legacy. He is a strong advocate for men’s mental health and personal growth, encouraging leaders to engage honestly with the pressures they carry rather than silently absorbing them. His faith plays a foundational role in his life and work, shaping his commitment to integrity, service, and impact beyond metrics.
Josh is also the creator of the Life Quotient framework, which helps leaders assess fulfillment across the areas that matter most—spiritual, internal, relational, professional, and legacy. Through coaching, masterminds, immersive experiences, and speaking engagements, he guides leaders to build lives and organizations that are not only successful, but coherent and sustainable.
Above all, Josh’s work is about helping leaders make better decisions at the moments that matter most—so success doesn’t come at the expense of everything else.

Stay Tuned for More!
The current speaker lineup represents only a portion of what’s to come. Behind the scenes, we’re actively confirming more high-integrity leaders, coaches, founders, and subject-matter experts who align with Shift’s mission. Every speaker is intentionally chosen—not for fame, but for the clarity, experience, and value they bring to the room.
Check back soon as we continue to build a lineup designed to challenge, sharpen, and move you forward!
More Than an Event. A Mission.
Shift Summit isn’t just about gathering high performers in one room — it’s about supporting those we believe in. This year, we’re proud to partner with Talons Reach Foundation, a nonprofit that serves active and veteran Special Operations Forces who’ve been morally, mentally, or physically wounded. These men and women have carried the weight of elite service — often at great personal cost — and Talons Reach helps them reconnect, recover, and regenerate through mindfulness, community, and care.
A portion of all Shift Summit ticket sales will be donated directly to Talons Reach Foundation.
This is our way of giving back to those who never asked — but who always showed up. When you buy a ticket, you’re not just investing in yourself. You’re standing with a mission that helps some of the strongest among us heal with strength, clarity, and purpose.
