Every engagement begins with the right conversation

Our engagements are best suited for growth-stage and mid-market companies, typically 15 to 1500 employees, at inflection points where people systems need to evolve alongside the business.

It depends on scope. Project-based engagements typically run 60–120 days. Fractional CHRO arrangements are ongoing and structured on a monthly retainer. We define timelines clearly before work begins.

Both. Most strategic work is delivered effectively in a hybrid model. For engagements that require on-site presence, culture diagnostics, team workshops, embedded CHRO work, we travel based on the scope and geography.

We price based on scope, not time-and-materials. After the discovery call and diagnostic phase, we provide a fixed-fee proposal so you know exactly what the engagement costs before committing.

That's the point of the discovery call. Many of our best engagements began with a client who wasn't sure what they needed, they just knew something wasn't working. We'll help you figure out the right starting point.

We'll tell you directly, and where possible, refer you to a firm that is. We'd rather give you an honest answer than take on an engagement we're not positioned to win. Our reputation depends on that standard.
