Operating Partner
You need someone with the operating bandwidth and the discipline to act on it, alongside you, until the changes hold. That’s what I do.
The result
What you say about the business and how it actually runs finally tell one story.
Your prices catch up to the value the work delivers.
The seats around you get filled by people who can actually carry them.
Worth something on its own, so you could sell it or step away.
The work
Renegotiate the vendor pricing you stopped questioning.
Stop the payables bleed.
Cut the spend that looks efficient but earns nothing.
Move the prices you’ve been afraid to touch.
Rebuild the trust between you and the team, or help you find a team that wants to be in the room.
Make the operating calls that have sat on your list for months, or years.
I come in, do the work, and stay until it holds. Then I leave, and it keeps running without me. The work is the deliverable, not a hire you carry for years.
How I work
I embed in the business, do the work alongside you, and stay until the change holds on its own. The result is a business that is stronger than any one person in it, including you.
