If you stepped away from your business for 30 days, no phone, no email, what would keep running — and what would stop? I embed in businesses as an internal executive or an outside advisor and stay until they run without me in the room and would hold up if they were sold.
Most founders and CEOs hit a ceiling they can see but not how to break through. I partner with a small number of leaders, take on operating roles in companies I don’t own, diagnose the pattern that’s blocking progress, and work hands‑on until something actually moves. Most advisors leave you with a plan. I stay until you execute it.
I bring 25 years of cross‑border business building, M&A, turnaround and growth experience across Europe and North America, plus a network of advisors, investors and operators to fill capability gaps fast. I’m direct, practical and focused on building businesses that scale — and are saleable.
