Fractional Chief of Staff
Level up your strategic initiatives with the equipping of a part-time senior leader from FlexPoint: our only agenda will be to help you succeed
Driver
The Chief of Staff is one of the most underrated and under-utilized roles in Corporate America. An effective Chief of Staff can be a force multiplier for the executive they serve.
We love this Harvard Business Review article on The Case for a Chief of Staff. It describes various executive challenges and the type of CoS that best enables them. On one end of the spectrum is a CoS that provides administrative, organizing, and coordinating support. And on the end of the spectrum — our focus — is a CoS that provides a strategic advisory role, helping the executive to navigate uncertainty and risk, and to effect company-wide change.
HBR paints the picture that a leader executing “significant, strategic, operational, and cultural agendas calling for considerable changes” is best served by a chief of staff helping the “CEO and senior executives navigate through uncertainty and risk.”
But what if you don’t have the budget or the team depth to support a strategic CoS?
