Companion

A senior peer in the room for the decisions that matter — without the hire.

Companion · advisory · about five hours a month

You're making good decisions, but you're making them alone. The founder doubling as head of marketing or head of people. The first-time director without a senior peer to test thinking against. The people leader running a real initiative who needs a sounding board that actually understands brand. The work is happening — what's missing is the second senior perspective on it.

That's what this is. A recurring monthly review as the anchor, a lighter mid-month check-in, considered access in between, and a short written briefing each quarter you can take into your own board. The Companion sharpens the decision, names the risk, and gives you the read — and you own the decision and the doing. It's the lightest ongoing tier, on purpose: it suits someone whose own judgment is sound and wants it tested and backed, not replaced.

What it isn't — It isn't embedded leadership — that's Lead Companion. It isn't execution. And it isn't always-on; it's considered senior input, structured, about five hours a month. A fraction of a full-time hire; month-to-month; thirty days' notice.

Price: €3,500 / month
