You may have noticed I recently had a role change.
Well after 40 something years of working for a variety of organisations—big, small, and everything in between—gathering experience, grey hairs - losing lots, and a respectable collection of coffee mugs… I’ve decided it’s time to take the leap and work for myself.
I’ve gone from “working in a business” to helping others work on theirs.
Introducing Optima Business Improvement Services (Optima BIS)—my new venture, created to support business owners and managers by offering an extra set of hands, eyes, ears, and, when needed, a gentle nudge in the right direction.
What do I do? Think of me as your Fractional General Manager / COO.
That’s a fancy way of way of saying: Part-Time GM / COO – Full-Time Impact.
Most business owners are brilliant at delivering a product or service—but the behind-the-scenes side of running a business doesn’t always come naturally. That’s where Optima BIS steps in: helping uncover the things you don’t know you need to know.
Want more time to focus on the big stuff? Need someone who’s walked the road and can help with the detours? Wish you had a trusted second-in-command (without the full-time overhead)?
Always happy to chat.
