Book a Scoping Call with an Interim CEO
A scoping call is the fastest way to know whether an interim CEO is the right answer for your situation. Thirty focused minutes on the mandate, the constraints, and the timeline, with a clear yes, no, or shape of a proposal at the end.
What happens on the call
- Ten minutes on the situation and what triggered it
- Ten minutes on constraints: capital, timeline, people, board
- Ten minutes on shape of the mandate and next step
What you leave with
A clear read on whether an interim CEO is the right fit, a rough shape of the mandate if it is, and either a written proposal within a few days or a candid recommendation to go a different route.
How to prepare
- A one-paragraph description of the situation
- Rough revenue, headcount, and ownership structure
- The one outcome that has to be true 12 months from now
- Any hard constraints on timing or cost
