What is Service Before Self Leadership?

SBSL is an educational solutions provider, founded in the fall of 2011 by Mr. SJ Barakony.  

How do we approach our work?  

SBSL designs & implements customized educational solutions:  For families & individuals?   As a 1:1 mentor , or as the family's educational adviser (FAS/family advisory service) 

For workplaces (all types/kinds)?  As a group facilitator ( 4 unique programs ), an educational consultant, or a 1:1 mentor for the self employed/sole proprietor.


Why do we exist?   

Generally stated, our overarching mission is to fill in the gaps ( aka, 15 root issues ) which exist in the traditional model of educating our citizenry.  To put into context : 

  • The K-12 model, with many of its features still in use by public, many charters, private, faith based, and even home schooling families, is 160+ years old; its early roots were planted in the NE (Massachusetts) about a decade before the Civil War. ​
  • The collegiate/undergrad/university track is 70+ years old, coming into its own just after WWII wrapped with a big boost from the GI Bill, and began its spread far and wide thereafter.

Whom do we work with ( target markets : B2B , B2C, etc ) ?

We primarily focus on working w/ families, individuals (students, the self employed), faith based institutions, & small \ mid sized business workplaces.

We heartily welcome any & all opportunities to collaborate with other educational innovators, visionaries, and early adopters, too!

What is SBSL's Business Model?

Five Pillars ( areas of specialty ) :

  • Please review document on left of screen.  ( or if you're on a mobile device, it will be either above or below this block of text )


Customized Solutions can take many forms .... 

  • Consulting - SBSL offers our customers a unique opportunity to partner with us, and upwards of 10 or more other businesses with whom we have working arrangements with.  Once SBSL ID's your need, we design a customized solution that is just that - there's likely no other business in the country that can do the exact same thing!

  • Mentorship - Work with SBSL ( please see below for $ #'s ) to set up time for the Founder to partner with your company/business,  or your own self (individual) on a one to one basis.
​
  • Family Advisory Service - Work with SBSL ( please see below for $ #'s ) to set up time for the Founder to ensure that your family is 100% aware of each & every educational option that exists in your home state or province. The innovations are coming fast & quick, and the vast majority of citizens don't seem to have the time to research them all to come to the most wise decision for their, their kids, or their grand-kids' future.  SBSL is here to fill that need.
​
  • Group Facilitation - SBSL offers four specific programs that map well onto most any business workplace.  (​​ one, the creation of a mastermind, is an SBSL specialty. The founder (SJ) has several years of experience being the co-organizer/lead facilitator of a weekly Mastermind, has been a participating member of two additional ones, plus has previous experience with youth in a classroom setting ( e.g., AWANA, YEA, Teen Entrepreneurial Camp )
