Fractional executive
Making the on-demand executive model work for you.
Executive
An exec with years of experience working with similar companies can enhance the management team, provide credibility with your board and investors and generally raise the level of professionalism at the company. Experience with your specific industry is a plus for networks, providers, investors, etc.
Leadership
The executive should be a natural leader and have the gravitas to slip into a leadership role, even on a part-time basis.
Goals
Drive for results including well-defined project objectives, an engagement overview, primary activities and deliverables, expected duration of the engagement and the KPIs and business outcomes by which success is measured.
Plan
Be realistic about goals and objectives to achieve given the time constraints or available resources. A few, very strategic, well-defined projects will be easier to manage than multiple, more tactical projects. Focus is key.
Fit
While developing a rapport with the management team is a must, a good cultural fit with the rest of the team is important too. The executive should inspire “been there, done that” confidence, but also be creative and flexible enough to adapt to the team and its culture.
