For companies: ongoing counsel

Advisory

Regular one-to-one conversations around live decisions, emerging questions and the direction of the business.

Advisory is an ongoing relationship with one leader or one board. Consulting is a bounded assignment with your leadership team and the people who do the work, plus training for your teams.

Where they differ

Two lines that separate them

Founder and CEO advisory or a board seat: the difference is whom I answer to. In advisory I work for you, and our conversations stay between us. On a board or an advisory board I work for the company, together with the other members.

AI Executive Advisory or founder and CEO advisory: if AI is the reason you are looking, start with AI Executive Advisory. If AI is one question among many, it belongs in founder and CEO advisory.

The same in all four

What every relationship shares

  1. You bring live material: the plan, the pipeline view, the hiring case, the customer email.

  2. The conversations are confidential, and you can reach me between them in the way we agree.

  3. Decision notes: clear assumptions, options, consequences and chosen actions from the work.

  4. You hear my view, including where I disagree, and you decide.

  5. When the work needs interviews across the company, a framework or training, we scope it as a separate assignment under Consulting.

Where it starts

We start with a conversation about the decision, why it matters now and who holds the relevant parts of the picture.

From there, we agree the form of involvement that fits.

For a one-to-one relationship, we agree a first period and look at it together at its end. The time a seat takes is agreed before I accept it.
