Good fractional work
When the mandate is urgent, important, and not yet permanent.
- You need senior COO judgment now, before a permanent search can close.
- The outcome is clear enough to score, but the long-term organization is still changing.
- The leadership gap creates material delivery, risk, capital, or customer exposure.
- A credible operator must both decide and leave the team stronger.
