When Scaling Is The Only Option.

Get the support and advise you need from an experienced COO, minimize scale-up risk, and accelerate sustainable growth at a fraction of the cost.

The Chief Operating Officer is typically considered the Second-in-Command, the integrator of decisions on behalf of the CEO, and the sustainable growth advisor to Founders and Boards,

or as we like to call it…

The Second C.

Supercharging your business with the right support is one of the best things you can do to grow.

Ambitious SMEs require strong operational leadership to grow; yet, many either don’t have the budget to hire a full-time COO, the founders or CEOs are becoming the bottleneck to deliver the full remit of the organization because they are too focused on the daily operations, or they simply don’t have the infrastructure and operational leadership in place they require to keep up with fast-growth.

To scale, companies require more than just any Operational Leadership or an unproven coach. They must bring on a partner that is a champion of change, not afraid to provide bold solutions to improve company performance, can translate vision into execution, understands all aspects of fast scale-up environments, empowers and inspires leaders at all levels, and can act as a coach to the business and its leadership.

When SMEs don’t have the budget or aren’t ready to commit to a full-time COO or need advice from a Business Coach, The Second C is the answer.
