Could hiring fractional executives or interim executives solve the problem that many CEOs face? The dilemma of either hiring full-time executives or outsourcing to a third party. The problem with both options is that they can take time to find the right person and have them ramp up on your company’s systems and culture, which slows down growth.
“CEOs are always looking to grow their business as quickly as possible. They’re constantly on the lookout for new team members and ways to increase revenue, but hiring a full-time executive is often difficult and time-consuming. Fractional executives can be hired to help with specific tasks or projects while still allowing CEOs to focus on other areas of the company.”
Fractional execs are a new solution for this problem because they can work remotely but still maintain an ongoing relationship with you as their client. This allows them to be more responsive, which is ideal when scaling business growth. But how do you know if fractional executives are right for you?
In this episode, Kristen McAlister, co-owner of Cerius Executives and author of “How I Fired my Boss and Made More Money”, shares with us her 10+ years of experience leveraging fractional executives/interim leadership to help companies grow.
