I deliver top consulting strategies + peer successes—and guide leaders to implement them fast for real business impact.
Why I Focus on Tech & Life Sciences Growth Companies (<500 Employees)
I bring world-class talent strategies and resources used by leading companies—distilled into a lean, rapid-adoption approach tailored for growth-stage tech and life sciences firms—so leaders can implement them quickly to capture performance improvements.
1 / Talent is your biggest risk—and leverage.
Losing one key scientist or engineer costs $300K–$800K and delays milestones that matter to investors.
2 / Growth-stage volatility hits hard.
Doubling headcount fast? Without the right plays, turnover spikes, culture suffers, and burn accelerates.
3 / Small teams = massive ROI.
A 25–35% drop in regrettable turnover saves millions in productivity and speeds time-to-market—far more impact than in big enterprises.
