02 / THE WORKING METHOD

Built to create
a useful change.

A capacity-to-promise review brings demand generation and delivery readiness into the same decision, before a campaign creates work the operation cannot absorb.

01 / SET THE MANDATE

Set the mandate

Define which decisions the role owns, where it advises, how much capacity is available, and how success will be reviewed.

02 / RUN THE OPERATING RHYTHM

Run the operating rhythm

Connect commercial priorities, delivery constraints, resource choices, and the current action portfolio.

03 / TRANSFER THE SYSTEM

Transfer the system

Maintain decision records, develop the internal owners, and document the cadence so the business is less dependent on individual intervention.

Client complexity and scope are separate factors. The written proposal confirms the level that matches your brief.

looks like.

Review delivery of the agreed leadership cadence, decision closure, and mandate-specific operating indicators without implying guaranteed revenue or margin.

ILLUSTRATIVE APPLICATION / NOT A CLIENT RESULT

Illustrative engagement

A growing service company aligns its launch calendar, team availability, and client delivery commitments under one monthly decision cadence.

06 / PRICE GUARDS

Protect the scope.
Protect the result.

Outside this product unless agreed.

  • Unlimited executive availability

  • Implementation staff, travel, or third-party services unless stated

No hidden expansion.

The proposal confirms quantities, review rounds, locations, versions, and the service period. Additional work receives a written change scope before it starts.

8% G&A is additional. Third-party costs and applicable tax are confirmed separately. Estimates are planning ranges, not a booking or a guarantee of results.

Before we begin.

How is this different from interim leadership?

Fractional leadership provides an agreed share of senior capacity over a defined month. Interim leadership addresses a more concentrated role or transition mandate, typically scoped by week.

Can you lead marketing and operations together?

Yes, when the mandate, authority, time allocation, and internal ownership make that combined responsibility practical. The proposal defines the boundaries.

07 / CONNECTED PRODUCTS
