YOUR FUTURE SENIOR LEADERSHIP · LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Next-in-Line Leaders™
Your next directors are already leading for you today. Managers who will step into senior roles in the next one to three years need more than the skills that got them here. How well you prepare them shapes retention, promotion and the strength of your senior leadership bench.
The Next-in-Line Leaders™ program prepares experienced managers for the move to director and senior leadership, so you can grow and keep the talent you will need to lead tomorrow.
Offered as group workshops for cohorts of managers, tailored to your organization: a core series, plus add-on skills as you need them.
CORE SERIES
- Manager-to-director transition
- Leading leaders, not just doers
- Strategic thinking and planning
- Enterprise-wide perspective and decision-making
- Influence with senior leaders and across the organization
- Leading through change
- Developing your next bench of leaders
ADD-ON SKILLS
Add focused skill sessions as you need them, such as executive presence, communicating with senior leaders or difficult conversations.
ONGOING SUPPORT · FOR ORGANIZATIONS
Support that moves with your organization.
Some needs call for a focused response to change. Others call for a steady partner in the day-to-day. These two offerings add depth to the support you already have.
EAP SUPPLEMENT
EAP Supplement
Your EAP supports individual emotional needs. Your leaders need specialized support to guide their teams, because change affects everyone at once.
Employee assistance programs are built for one person at a time. When a reorganization, a merger or rapid growth reshapes your organization, leaders need nuanced support that moves at the pace of the change. The EAP Supplement adds that depth to the benefits you already offer.
What leaders receive
- One-on-one transitional coaching for executives and leaders carrying the change
- Balance and sustainability: holding the tension of work demands and personal needs at the same time
- Supporting the team: leading others well, even when you need support yourself
- Communicating the why: understanding the bigger picture and sharing it with clarity and empowerment
- Team interventions: help with urgent team needs that reach beyond a leader's typical scope
Choose your timeline: a 90-day package for an urgent response, or a 120-day package for integrated change. You choose the number of sessions and the rhythm, weekly or every other week. We can focus on specific teams, departments or leadership levels, based on your needs.
Your people keep their EAP. Your leaders gain a partner for the change.
SUPPLEMENTAL HR SUPPORT
Supplemental HR Support
HR support that knows your business.
An individual HR professional or a small team integrates into your organization and works alongside your people. You get the same partners and the same processes every time, so nothing gets lost and no one has to start over.
What's included
- Continuity: consistent partners who know your people, your history and your goals
- A full suite of people processes: hiring, onboarding, performance, engagement and more, built to fit how you work
- Startup suite: for new companies, we create your core people processes through the People Foundations Pack™ and maintain them as you grow
- Leader partnership: our HR business partners meet one-on-one with your mid-level leaders as they support the growth of the business
How it differs from Fractional CPO: our Fractional CPO partnership brings senior strategy and leadership at the executive level. Supplemental HR Support works hands-on with your mid-level leaders, day to day.
Consistent support. Reliable processes. A partner who stays.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
Two ways to begin. One standard of impact.
Most firms ask you to commit before you’ve seen the work. We give you a choice: begin with a focused project and see the impact firsthand, or move directly into a long-term fractional partnership.

Project-Based Partnership
After a detailed intake, we scope a project around your most pressing need, so you see real results and how we work together.
We design and document each project area and coach your leaders to put it into practice, with a clearly defined scope.
OPTION 2 · LONG-TERM PARTNERSHIP
Fractional Chief People Officer Partnership
After a detailed intake, we join your leadership team already knowing your business, your people and where you want to go.
Senior people leadership on your executive team, part-time and with a clearly defined scope, aligning strategy, culture and people.
