People

Start-ups, scale-ups and businesses moving towards their IPOs need specific skills in specific areas.

Expecting the same team to be equipped to deal with these growth challenges is unrealistic, at best.

I can help you to identify the gaps in your team, help you to define the roles you need to fill, then attract, incentivise and retain the right talent, especially in senior leadership and at board level.

Efficiency

So, you’ve got the right people in the right seats, but are you using them right?

Creating efficiency within your leadership teams enables you to maintain your future focus, giving you the peace of mind that the mission and the vision is front of mind for everyone.

I can help you iron out the inefficiencies and ensure that you’re using your executive teams the right way: focussed on advancing the mission and realising the vision, with efficiency and productivity.

Optimization

The right people are in place, and all the inefficiencies have been ironed out. The next key area of focus is maintaining this productive, proactive state.

I can help you identify the data to track, what data you need to analyse, and why. Together we can develop the dashboard so that you’re always focussed on the business, rather than working in it.

Culture

With an optimised, efficient leadership team in place, a crucial key to unlocking growth is culture. What draws people to want to help you achieve your vision needs careful management and protection.

I can help you to preserve culture by ensuring that you’re celebrating the right things at the right time. That the vision is clearly defined and communicated at every level of the organisation. That the culture that helped get you to where you are today is maintained, honoured and protected.

Target

Do you really know the difference between KPIs and an OKRs?

Setting the right goals and tracking the right targets is subject matter in of itself. It’s likely that you know where you need to get to, but how do you measure that journey accurately? How can you alter your course along the way, if and when you need to?

I can help you to determine the key differences between targets and goals, ensuring that you track progress in the most productive way. Getting this stage right is critical not only for your internal teams encouragement and productivity, but to keep your investors invested in your vision, and your capability to deliver it.

Let's work together!

Ann’s CEO consulting clients are running rapidly scaling organizations who are facing all the challenges that come with massive success and rapid growth. Their organizations tend to be around Series A or B in fundraising, or a similar growth stage, where they are doubling year over year (in revenue, users, employees, etc) and the systems that worked to manage them as a startup are now starting to break. The needs to an organization growing from a startup to a scale up center around four areas: market, tech, team and financing. Ann specializes in The Team.
