Chief Scaling helps you take a big leap forward
Leading your business from start-up to scale-up is wonderful but challenging. More customers, more personnel and a constantly changing market will provide you with plenty to worry about and act upon.
You and your leadership team are responsible for successfully scaling your business. But how do you divide the tasks and keep an eye on all priorities at the same time? You need a Chief Scaling.
I am your Chief Scaling. Connecting management and teams and designing efficient business processes, this is what I help you with. Scaling up is moving in unknown territory, under high pressure. What you seek is more control and stable, smart processes. You want less chaos and more structure. You want motivated employees and connected teams.
You will find that you are not necessarily well-equipped for all of these tasks – simultaneously. No-one is. As leaders, we all tend to be either ‘people persons’ or ‘process-oriented’. But if you are willing to give everything and persevere, I will help you get better every day, across the board.
