Do You Need a Fractional or Full-Time COO / Chief of Staff?
Before you hire anyone, it helps to know which question you’re answering. Full-time and fractional operational leadership solve different problems, and most organizations decide between them based on gut feeling and a quick look at budget, timeline, and what they need someone to do.
When I walk boards and leadership teams through this framework it take a full hour to get through a 24-page decision matrix (if you feel you need that call me). I also wrote a whole fully researched blog post about what to consider when making this decision, it takes about 10 minutes to read. This is, thankfully, the shortest version: seven questions, the same scoring logic, and a straight recommendation for where your organization stands today, not where you assumed you’d land.
Takes about three minutes. Look at me, saving you some capacity already.
