Fractional Leadership

Bringing experienced executive leadership to your small and mid-sized teams...
in the right amount at the right time.  

Seasoned executive, business casual, providing instruction to a team of engineers
Pay only for what you need.
 
So you run a small to mid-sized company.  You don't have endless financial resources, but you still have to compete with the bigger guys who do.

That can be a tough position to be in. 
Sure, it would be great to hire a full-time VP of Engineering or Operations, an Integrator, or even a CTO.
But those $250k ~ $500k per year salaries just don't fit in your budget.

Well, now they can.  More than likely, you don't need that level of expertise full-time anyway.  You have some talented managers.  They keep the day to day operations running, but they struggle to make improvements or understand the "why" behind some of the decisions you make.
 
That's where we can help.  Our fractional leadership offering provides the expertise of a seasoned executive on an as-needed basis.  You only pay for the time we're supporting your team.

We will bring our experience to the table to help you:

  • streamline your scheduling methods
  • improve the rhythm and effectiveness of your meetings
    (and reduce or eliminate those that are not adding value)
  • strengthen communication with your suppliers (there are many missed opportunities for quality and price improvement here)
  • optimize your team organizational structure
  • and ultimately your team's success!

The Integrator Role and Why  You Need One

The Integrator is one of the most often overlooked roles, but one that can be a game changer in your organization.

  • You create the big picture

    It's your company, or your division.  You have worked hard to get here and you enjoy being at the top.  You enjoy creating the vision.  You are the one with the ideas that will drive the continued growth of the company.

  • Employee management is not your forte

    You enjoy talking with customers and creating the corporate vision. 

    You do not enjoy hiring, managing schedules, writing employee reviews, or separating an employee when things just didn't work out.

  • You are proud of what you have built, but...

    It has been a great run so far, but competition is tough and you must find ways to translate your ideas into reality - and additional revenue.  You have the ideas, but need an independant sounding board and then someone to help translate your great ideas into reality.
    The Method can help.

  • They just don't listen.

    Your team.  They're great people.  You hired some of them yourself, others have been around since the beginning.  They want to hear you and contribute to your success and the success of the company.  

    It's possible they're listening, but the message isn't clear - or changes too often.  There needs to be a buffer, a translator, an Integrator, between you and them.  Let The Method be that consistent, impartial voice to drive them in the direction that will translate to the bottom line increase you're looking for.

  • I took over from my parent

    This happens often.  A parent, grandparent, aunt or uncle started this business from scratch many years ago.  It's strong and has withstood the test of time.  

    Now it's your turn.  You have inherited the coveted position at the helm.  You're excited - but also terrified.  Because this is a family business, this may be the only place you have ever worked.  Your vision of "good" is what you see in front of you every day.  Hopefully it is good, but competition is tough.  The good that carried the company through in the past is no longer good enough.  You must be great.  The Method can help you get there.

  • Oh, it's really that easy?

    The short answer is, Yes!  The longer answer is yes, but it's going to take some work.  It's not always easy, but it's always worth it.

    This is your legacy.  It's going to take effort.

    Call on The Method to help you through the challenges, whenever they happen...and they will happen.  Get started today!
