Sound familiar?
- Routine decisions wait for you, so work queues at your door.
- Your managers bring you problems, not answers.
- A week away means a week of catching up.
- Meetings happen, but nobody leaves owning a number.
This is not a people problem. It is a missing layer of operating leadership, and a part-time COO builds it: clear decision rights, a weekly rhythm and managers who own delivery.
A business that runs without you
Routine calls wait for you
Clear decision rights
Who decides what, set out and agreed, so routine calls stop coming back to you.
Meetings without numbers
A weekly management rhythm
A regular cadence of meetings and numbers that your managers run themselves.
Delivery stalls when you step away
Managers who own delivery
Accountability for delivery that sits with the team, not with the founder.

A COO who has done this takes the decisions off your desk
Decisions come back to you because nobody else has the authority, the information or the habit to make them. An experienced COO fixes all three, inside the business, with your managers.
First
Find where decisions stall
They work alongside you and your team, and map which calls come back to you and why.
Then
Hand them over, with rules
Decision rights written down and agreed, so each manager knows what they own and when to escalate.
Ongoing
Run the rhythm until it runs itself
A weekly management meeting on real numbers, led by the COO until your managers run it without them, or you.
Senior, and done it before
Leaders from our curated collective of 400+ who have held the role and solved this problem before.
