FAQs
How do we get started?
It always seems to start with a phone call or an email. We talk, we learn, we decide.
Who do you work for?
I work for the CEO and/or COB. While my contributions cut across the company; I will do my job and fight departmental politics at the same time.
How do you charge?
Other than for interim CEO or CTO roles, I usually charge on a per diem basis. I prefer to work on retainer to assure that sufficient time is reserved for the client and to help avoid scheduling problems. My retainer is generally per calendar quarter, allowing the client flexibility in an uneven demand environment. Daily rates apply to time spent with the client, significant travel time, and substantial work effort away from the client's work place. I do not charge for telephone or e-mail time (unless excessive), in-town travel, or minor work product time. Interim-CEO and CTO roles are monthly with an agreed upon minimum number of months and a minimum either-side-can-give-termination-notice time period, allowing for smooth transition.
