A Fractional COO is a part-time or contract-based executive who provides strategic and operational leadership. In my practice, this role is uniquely positioned at the intersection of Chief of Staff and Business Operations (BizOps), ensuring that operational strategies align seamlessly with executive priorities and organizational performance. Drawing on interdisciplinary expertise, I integrate day-to-day execution with strategic planning and data-driven decision-making, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and sustainable growth.

Hiring a Fractional COO who also brings COS and BizOps expertise offers strategic and economic advantages:

• Cost-Effectiveness: A Fractional model provides organizations with access to C-suite expertise without the financial burden of a full-time executive salary and benefits package.

• Integrated Expertise: Combining COO, COS, and BizOps functions into a single fractional role ensures operational alignment, executive coordination, and data-driven decision-making across the organization.

• Scalability and Flexibility: Fractional executives adjust their involvement according to organizational needs, offering high-touch support during growth phases and strategic guidance during stabilization or transition periods.

• Objective Perspective: As an external partner, I bring an evidence-based, impartial lens that helps identify operational blind spots, mitigate risk, and drive transformation.

Organizations benefit from a holistic (COO + COS + BizOps) approach that transcends traditional operational management:

• Operational Excellence: I implement systems and processes that align daily execution with strategic objectives, ensuring sustainable growth.

• Leadership Alignment: Through my COS experience, I facilitate executive alignment, clarifying priorities, and ensuring that leadership decisions translate into action.

• Data-Driven Strategy: With a BizOps lens, I develop frameworks for performance measurement, process improvement, and data-driven decision-making.

• Risk Mitigation and Change Management: I identify operational risks and design effective change management strategies to navigate market shifts, ensure regulatory compliance, and facilitate business model transformations.

While the Fractional model is highly effective, it is particularly valuable for:

• Organizations experiencing growth, scaling, or rapid change require operational structure and strategic alignment.

• Founders seeking to delegate operational oversight while retaining strategic leadership.

• Companies in transition, such as those undergoing mergers, expansions, or new market entry, require a cohesive operational strategy and executive alignment.

However, highly regulated industries or organizations that require continuous, on-site executive presence may need a full-time Chief Operating Officer (COO) to ensure comprehensive oversight. In such cases, I can provide interim support or advise on structuring the role effectively.

$7,500/month with a 3-month minimum commitment ($22,500 total).
This reflects the strategic depth, access, and real-time support of this partnership. I only take on a limited number of retainer clients to maintain quality and capacity.

Most clients come to me at an inflection point - too many priorities, too many people waiting on direction, and no space to think. What they leave with is alignment, execution, and the capacity to lead with clarity.

In the first 30 days, we audit what’s working, what’s stalled, and what’s at risk.
We eliminate the noise. We focus on what moves the business forward.

By the end of the engagement, you’re not just making faster decisions, you’re seeing the impact of them.

Clients have:

• Cut decision cycles in half

• Retained full teams through founder and partner exits

• Eliminated six-figure inefficiencies

• Rebuilt trust across stretched leadership teams

• Moved from reactive to strategic in less than 90 days

But the most consistent result?

Clear priorities.
Fewer breakdowns.
More follow-through.
And the space to lead without carrying it alone.

Each month, you receive:

• 2–4 private advisory and executive coaching sessions
  Focused on leadership strategy, team dynamics, and high-stakes decisions

• Voice and message access between sessions
  For in-the-moment clarity on urgent or sensitive issues

• Operational and strategic execution support
  I step in where needed to move initiatives forward, resolve blockers, and close loops

• Embedded guidance across org priorities
  From restructures and performance issues to partner exits and leadership alignment

• Confidential, high-trust decision support
  For the calls you can’t make publicly but can’t afford to delay

It’s both, delivered through an embedded partnership.
You’ll receive strategic coaching to strengthen your leadership and operational consulting to drive execution. I work alongside you on the decisions, transitions, and priorities that shape the business's direction.

That’s usually the signal it is.
Leaders bring me in when timing feels uncertain but pressure is building, priorities are colliding, and too much is at risk to keep waiting. We move quickly, clarify what needs attention, and take action before momentum gets lost.

Yes. As an embedded partner, I support leadership conversations directly whether it's navigating team dynamics, resolving founder tension, or aligning on strategy. No new scope required. If it impacts execution, I’m in the room.

For entrepreneurs and founders, delayed decisions and misaligned priorities often translate into missed opportunities for growth, decreased team productivity, and a slower path to profitability. The longer a business waits to address operational challenges, the more costly and time-consuming it becomes to regain alignment and momentum. Proactive operational leadership, provided through fractional support, can help founders avoid these pitfalls and scale sustainably.
