Funding What Works: Scaling Proven Mental Health Models with Private-Sector Discipline

As the global youth mental health crisis intensifies, traditional philanthropic models often struggle to scale impact beyond localized intervention. This session explores a transformative “Business-to-Philanthropy” approach, led by Sean Covey, architect of the 4 Disciplines of Execution. Participants will go behind the scenes of Bridle Up Hope, a global nonprofit that has successfully scaled its equine-assisted resilience model across multiple continents. We will move beyond the “why” of the mental health epidemic to the “how” of systemic expansion, demonstrating how character-based leadership frameworks and rigorous operational disciplines can turn a singular pilot program into a global solution for adolescent wellbeing.
