Without a Great Second-in-Command
You're always on defense
-
There's no time for strategic thinking or innovation when you're running the day to day.
-
Growth grinds to a halt.
You're Chief Firefighter
-
Inconsistent processes means reduced productivity and missed opportunities.
-
You're leaving money on all kinds of tables.
You're always replacing people
-
The poor communication, shifting priorities, and lack of clarity drive out all the best people.

Focus on the Next Big Thing.
You need a Strategic Partner/2iC Coach.
An evolutionary — finding all the small changes that move the needle.
One who lives to improve policies, processes, tools, and culture.
The result is you,
lifted out of the weeds and minutiae.
You’re not captive to your business.
The company runs off a detailed business plan with prioritized targets, focused KPIs, and action items.
There’s always clarity on the path, targets, roles, and accountabilities.
There’s full business oversight (review the financials and metrics, look for opportunities) as we implement your plan.
Coaching keeps you on track and accelerates your results.

Faster growth.

Increased profit and higher valuation.

And take a vacation. A real one.

The first step is finding someone you trust.
That starts here.
Join a free event, or
book a confidential call to talk about the future. For you and your company.

About
You can tell Diane that your team makes avoidable mistakes. Or even that your business stops making sense to you sometimes. She’ll see the through-line, explain the why, and partner with your second-in-command to fix it.
A master second-in-command (with a minor in being a visionary herself*) Diane can see an entrepreneur’s vision, and the path to get there. Her 25 years of hands-on experience puts your company’s challenges into context and often lets you shortcut to the solution.
*Just kidding, her master’s is in Management/Management Information Systems and she’s PMP® certified.
