What to Expect From Day One

Working with a fractional CEO isn’t like hiring a consultant — and it’s definitely not a cookie-cutter solution. I become a part of your leadership team, driving strategy and execution while helping your business scale smarter. Here’s what our engagement typically looks like.

Step 1: Discovery and Fit

We start with a conversation to understand your business, goals, and challenges. You get clarity on how I work, and we see if the fit feels right.

Step 2: Deep Dive & Assessment

I review your current structure, operations, financials, and team dynamics. I meet with key stakeholders and quickly surface the biggest opportunities for improvement or leverage.

Step 3: Strategic Prioritization

Together, we define what matters most — from growth targets to team optimization — and develop a clear action plan with measurable outcomes.

Step 4: Integration & Execution

I join regular leadership meetings, coach your team, drive execution, and help install the structure your business needs to scale with less chaos.

Step 5: Momentum, Metrics and Optimization

With structure in place, I help you maintain focus, track progress, and adjust course. I operate as a true strategic partner — part coach, part COO, part accountability layer.

Engagement and Communication

Most clients bring me in on a part-time, retainer basis — typically 1–2 days per week. Some engagements are short-term (90–180 days), while others are ongoing for a year or more. It all depends on what you need.

You’ll find I’m clear, direct, and collaborative. I bring structure without red tape, and I lead with transparency. I communicate regularly, plug into your existing systems, and adapt to your culture — while pushing for growth and accountability.
