Forward Faster

Control Y helps growth-stage companies build leadership capacity to support the next phase of growth.

Leaders of small businesses and startups wear many hats. When teams are small, it's easy to meet the organization's needs without much structure. As your business grows, the complexity of the organization increases, and investing in leadership systems, operational structure, and organizational effectiveness becomes critical to your ability to scale.

Entering a phase of rapid company growth

When your company reaches 15+ employees, it's a tipping point where informal communication and processes no longer meet the needs. Lack of structure starts to inhibit growth. Maturing operational processes and tools and leadership capacity creates the foundation for a new phase of growth and ensures your team moves forward together.

What got you here won’t get you there

Founder-led companies often reach a point where leadership habits that worked early on begin slowing execution and growth. And it's common for founders to spend too much time in the day-to-day details of the business instead of thinking about what's next. Fractional executive support lets you focus on what you're best at and expand leadership capacity without committing to a full-time role.

Looking for an external perspective

Being in the top seat at a growing company can sometimes feel isolating. Executive coaching and leadership advisory support help CEOs improve alignment, decision-making, and organizational effectiveness during periods of growth and transition.
