I’m Kevin Black, and I help leaders turn chaos into a competitive edge.
I’m a veteran U.S. Army officer turned strategic advisor and leadership expert. I’ve worked with startups, growth companies, and Fortune 100—helping create over $500 million in business value by developing flexible corporate strategies and strong teams to execute them. One high-potential manager increased her performance by 20% in just 14 weeks of coaching.
I’ve contributed to USA Today and Forbes on the subject of leadership and strategy. More importantly, I’m the author of Strength in Chaos—the first book to measure chaos at the leader and team level. That book launched a new domain in executive education, Chaos Studies in Leadership.
If you lead, build, or operate under pressure, this space is for you.
About The Chaos School
Most leadership programs are safe and built for stability. This one isn’t. The Chaos School was created for leaders who face volatility, uncertainty, and pressure every day—and need a system to win in it. This is the only platform that turns chaos into a measurable force, giving you tools no one else teaches and a strategic edge most leaders never find.
Understand, this isn’t a leadership blog, and it’s not a content mill. Most of all, it is not a bottomless vault of leadership articles that leaves you guessing what matters.
The Chaos School is strategic and purposeful. It uses a directed learning approach, offering distinct structured paths—each with clear steps, real tools, and measurable progress to help you build strength in chaos through a systematic, orderly process. Every module moves you closer to mastery. Every concept demands action.
Inside, you’ll find:
Sharp, valuable commentary on chaos and how to engage it
Tactical frameworks you can use immediately
Diagnostic tools to measure chaos at the team level
Professional certifications to prove you’ve mastered the system
Potential access to Kevin for direct questions and insight
Whether you’re stabilizing a team, preparing for volatility, or aiming to scale without losing control, Chaos School is where leaders learn to think sharper, act faster, and lead stronger—especially when everything gets messy.
Why Join?
The Chaos School exists because most leaders never get the one thing that matters most: an education for real-world pressure. Here, you won’t just read about leadership—you’ll build strength in it, using custom tools that many executives in billion-dollar companies still don’t have.
If you’re looking for quotes and fluff, you’re in the wrong place. But if you’re ready to think sharper, act faster, and lead stronger—especially when everything seemingly spins out of control—you’re in the right spot.
Whether you’re just starting to explore this new domain or you’re ready to certify, there’s a path for you here. And it’s unlike anything you’ve done before.
There are three tiers to choose from:
🔑 Free Tier

For leaders who want deeper insight without certification, the Paid tier delivers:
Full access to the archive: articles, exclusive notes, and tactical breakdowns
Members-only video trainings, tools, and leadership frameworks

Foundational insights into chaos, behavior, and performance
This is where leaders sharpen their perspective and stay ahead of the curve—even if they’re not ready to certify just yet.
🛡️ Chaos Agent
$499/year
Chaos Agent marks the beginning of something serious. Most leaders already operate in chaos—they just don’t know how to lead through it. This is where that changes.
The name matters: Chaos Agents don’t react; they operate. They act when others freeze. A Chaos Agent chooses to confront what most avoid—uncertainty, breakdown, volatility—and learns to turn it into strength.
Includes:
Direct access to Kevin during members-only live streams
Exclusive discounts on all Chaos Agent certifications
Full archive of articles, notes, and tactical breakdowns
Member-only tools, videos, and leadership frameworks
Early access to upcoming diagnostic tools and development paths
This is the only program built from the ground up to give you language, structure, and tools for leading under real-world pressure.
If you’re a VP, builder, consultant, or rising operator who wants to leverage chaos instead of reacting to it—this is where your edge begins.
Welcome to The Chaos School.
