Services
Cost-effective, high-impact fractional services and 7 Stages of Growth™ programs designed for small businesses ready to grow with intention.
What the Status Quo Is Actually Costing You
Every month a founder is handling work that should be delegated, decisions aren't being made at the right level, and a leadership team is operating without clear accountability — those things have a real price. It just doesn't show up as a line item.
A seasoned COO with the experience to move the needle in your organization commands $150,000–$250,000 per year in salary alone — before benefits or the risk of a bad hire. SCI's fractional engagements deliver that same level of senior executive capability at a fraction of that cost, with no long-term commitment and a satisfaction guarantee on every month of the engagement.
For most companies, the math isn't whether they can afford a fractional COO. It's whether they can afford to keep running without one.
The Cost Comparison
Fractional EOS Integrator
SCI's Fractional Integrator service provides a cost-effective method to rapidly gain traction in your organization. This service is for EOS companies that have worked with an Implementer and are familiar with EOS concepts and tools.
As the CEO's right hand, I partner with you to ensure that your Vision is being executed. This means leading weekly Level 10 Meetings, conducting weekly 1:1 sessions with Leadership Team members, monthly Same Page Meetings with the CEO, and attending Quarterly and Annual meetings. I also work with team members during the week to resolve issues with their weekly To-Dos and Quarterly Rocks.
What's Included
- Weekly Level 10 Meeting facilitation
- Weekly 1:1s with Leadership Team members
- Monthly Same Page Meetings with CEO
- Quarterly & Annual Planning attendance
- Weekly To-Do and Rock support
- Issues identification and resolution
End Result
- Self-managing Leadership Team that executes
- Decisions made at the right level
- CEO freed to work on the business
- Clear path to a full-time Integrator
- Modeling the single-seat Integrator role
Particularly valuable for: Turnarounds where rapid change is urgent, companies that are performing well but have hit a growth ceiling, stabilizing a volatile environment prior to a new Integrator taking over, and transitioning from a "Do-Everything CEO" (a Watchmaker) to a managerial leader (a Beekeeper) prior to hiring or promoting a full-time Integrator.

Fractional COO
SCI's Fractional COO service provides a cost-effective method to build a self-managing leadership team that focuses on execution and makes decisions at the right level—so the CEO can work on the business rather than in the business. This service is for non-EOS or pre-EOS companies.
I partner with you to ensure your vision is executed by leading weekly meetings, mentoring Leadership Team members, and building systems and processes that hit targeted revenue, margin, or other key business goals. Concurrent implementation of a 7SG™ X-Ray is highly recommended.
What's Included
- Weekly leadership meeting facilitation
- Leadership Team mentoring & development
- Systems and process development
- Revenue, margin, and KPI management
- Strategic initiative planning & execution
- Turnaround and crisis management
Ideal For
- Founders or CEOs handling everything themselves
- Companies unable to afford a full-time COO
- PE acquisitions needing self-managing orgs
- Companies in turnaround or crisis needing immediate operational leadership
- Companies that have plateaued and need the operational infrastructure to break through to the next level
- Founders who are ready to scale and want an experienced operator to build the organization around that vision
- Companies preparing to hire a full-time COO
Particularly valuable for: Founders and CEOs who are handling both the visionary and operational roles simultaneously, companies experiencing rapid growth that has outpaced their management infrastructure, PE-backed acquisitions that need a self-managing leadership team established quickly, and businesses navigating a leadership transition or preparing to scale to the next stage of growth.

7 Stages of Growth X-Ray
The heart of the Stages of Growth program. A structured diagnostic that uncovers the issues facing your company, prioritizes them, and produces a six-month roadmap to resolve them—tailored to exactly where you are on the growth curve.
The X-Ray Covers
- Resolving gaps from prior stages
- Top 5 challenges of your current stage
- Non-negotiable rules for your current stage
- Faces of the Leader ratio for your stage
- Leadership Modalities of CEO, Managers & Staff
- Appropriate CEO Leadership Styles
- Gates (Priorities) of Focus
- Planning for growth into the next stage
Program Structure
- Two-day kickoff — leadership team reviews surveys, validates top issues, plans 6-month sprint
- Monthly CEO check-ins — review progress, address blockers
- Monthly leadership team reviews — ensure milestones are being met
- Ongoing Rock addition — as initiatives complete, new ones are added from the original X-Ray
- End-of-sprint X-Ray — measure progress and plan next sprint
Key Advantages
Stage-specific online assessments let teams quickly get to the heart of their issues. The program provides a shared language of growth for discussing challenges and creates alignment around the top issues that everyone agrees must be addressed right now. In EOS companies, X-Ray initiatives can become Rocks.
Not sure if the X-Ray is right for you? You can take the free 45-minute 7SG Survey. You'll get a free two hour review of the results, and receive a complimentary report on your company's growth challenges.

7 Stages of Growth Profit Zone Training
CEOs bear all the weight of ensuring profitability and cash flow. Profit Zone Training enlists the entire workforce in taking initiative to grow revenue, manage costs, and ensure both profitability and cash flow for growth.
The financial literacy problem: An employee who doesn't understand how their daily work impacts the company's ability to make and keep money is flying blind. Pleadings from a CEO to "watch what you spend" or "stay on top of your billable hours" will fall on deaf ears—not because employees don't care, but because they haven't been taught. Profit Zone Training changes that.
What Participants Learn
- Key concepts: cash flow, revenue, cost
- The 9 activities that generate profit
- How each person's role connects to profitability
- A diagnostic tool oriented on profitability projects
- Up to 5 projects to improve financial standing (over 6–12 months)
Program Features
- Train-the-Trainer — leadership team learns to cascade training to the entire org
- Crawl / Walk / Run approach builds org-wide buy-in
- Creates employee ownership of financial health
- Can stand alone or complement the X-Ray
- In EOS companies, projects can become Rocks

Integrator / Leadership Mentoring
New Integrators are often in their first leadership position, their first EOS implementation, or both. SCI's Integrator mentoring helps them quickly gain the skills and perspective needed for their new roles.
By observing Level 10 meetings and 1:1 sessions, and following up with individualized feedback in weekly sessions, SCI ensures that your Integrator is comfortable working at the strategic level required—while building a self-managing organization that isn't dependent on the Visionary or the Integrator for daily operations.
Also available for COOs, Presidents, and other leadership team members stepping into expanded roles. The goal is to accelerate their development and reduce the common "first year" mistakes that cost organizations time, money, and talent.
Advisory Services
Running a company as its Founder or CEO is often a lonely role. While systems, processes, and tools can help offload work, the responsibility of leadership falls squarely on your shoulders.
I've spent more than 25 years inside organizations at every stage of growth — as an operator, not a consultant — which means I'm rarely seeing a problem for the first time. In an Advisory role, I provide a key sounding board for the Founder or CEO—smoothing rough edges and proactively resolving issues before they grow.
🏛️ Board Leadership
My experience as an Integrator, Product Manager, Operations leader, and Growth Curve Specialist provides a unique perspective on strategic management and growing a business through all seven stages.
I help companies optimize where they are and plan for where they want to be—bringing an outside board member's objectivity combined with the operating depth of someone who has actually run these organizations.
Built for the Exact Challenges PE Acquisitions Face
When you acquire a small business, you inherit a specific set of challenges that demand immediate attention: a company built around a founder or a few key individuals, operational processes that haven't been tested under pressure, and the need to service debt while building toward a profitable exit — often without the cash to bring on a full executive team to do it.
I've been inside these organizations when it mattered most. Two examples:
When a PE-owned company's London office lost its Operations Director and began losing customers, Kyle was sent in to hold it together. In six months he stabilized the operation, retained the customer base, and built the operational and technical foundation that ultimately cut costs by 42% and enabled 300% customer growth — with no new headcount. Read the full story →
When a critical customer contract threatened to unravel a $750M investment, Kyle was tapped to take personal ownership of the recovery. The project was corrected. The investment proceeded.
These are the scenarios PE owners plan for and hope never happen. When they do happen, you need someone who can step in, take ownership, and build an organization that doesn't depend on any single person to function — including themselves. That's what SCI delivers.
