For Chief Operating Officers & Operational Leaders

Driving Shop Success

The COO Mastermind is designed exclusively for COOs, General Managers, and high-level operational leaders who are responsible for the day-to-day performance, systems, and team management in successful auto repair businesses.

This isn’t basic management training — it’s a high-level collaborative group where experienced operators work together to refine systems, improve processes, build leadership skills, and maximize profitability across multi-location or high-volume shops.

Whether you’re a seasoned COO looking to sharpen your leadership edge or an owner ready to invest in your operations leader, the COO Mastermind delivers the tools, coaching, and peer collaboration to transform shop performance and create a smoother-running, more profitable business.

From The Desk of Greg Bunch

Dear Shop Owner,

Greg Bunch and the Transformers Institute team have worked with some of the top operators in the industry—and what separates thriving auto repair businesses from struggling ones is strong operational leadership.

Owners can set the vision, but it’s the COOs and operational leaders who execute that vision and ensure long-term success.

Yet, many COOs don’t get the mentorship and peer network they need to operate at their best. They’re expected to manage teams, optimize processes, and drive profitability—often without the structured guidance to succeed.

The COO Mastermind was built to give top-tier operations leaders the training, peer network, and coaching to master shop operations, build strong teams, and maximize business performance.
