The Power of Fractional Leadership

Modern leadership teams are structured differently. Fractional leadership is not new, but in a competitive, quickly evolving market agility, expertise and efficiency can make the difference. Not every management gap requires 40+ hours a week, swipe through for our perspective on the value of fractional leadership.

Why do companies hire fractional executives?

1 — Speed

Fractional execs allow for faster deployment based on quick on-boarding processes. This allows companies to address urgent strategic & operational issues without the long, complex hiring cycles.

2 — Specialization

Expertise is foundational to any fractional leader’s service offering.

Leveraging contract-based work allows companies to take a targeted approach that taps experience on demand.

3 — Flexibility

When leaders work with businesses on a fractional basis, they have the potential to scale their involvement up or down based on project demands and business needs.

4 — Cost

Fractional executives are paid for the hours / days they work which creates a built-in cost reduction in contrast to full-time, salaried team members.

Benefits, bonuses and other administrative costs & commitments associated with full time employees also create an opportunity for businesses to reduce overhead by engaging fractional leaders.

Bridging a Gap

Fractional leadership isn’t for everyone. But when there’s a fit, fractional leaders can amplify existing leadership competencies, create a high-impact at a lower cost and drive outcomes with speed and agility.
