The Chief of Stuff™ Manifesto
Not a title. A philosopy. (Also, maybe a title.)
A Chief of Stuff steps in when the pressure to scale outruns the systems to support it.
I'm the practical brain-extension you don’t usually plan for—but quickly come to rely on: translating ideas into action, chaos into flow, and growth into something your team can actually keep up with.
I'm not here to run departments—I design the scaffolding that helps departments think, decide, and move better.
I do the thinking of a strategist, the directing of a PM, the pattern-spotting of a COO, and the diplomacy of client success. I don’t need a blueprint—I'll build one.
Chief of Stuff isn’t just a clever title—it’s a critical role when friction starts costing money, people, or momentum.
I'm not here to patch holes.
I'm here to build the foundation that lasts.
Hire a Chief of Stuff when:
You need leverage, not layers.
You’re ready to scale, but not ready to hire a full exec team.
You want someone who gets it—and gets sh*t done.
Calm in complexity | Sharp on priorities | Deeply invested in your success
This is not a consultancy. This is a partnership.
