FAQs

How hands-on do I need to be and when can we get started?

You bring your experience, perspective, and goals—we handle the rest through a collaborative and focused process. This is guided support, not another task on your plate. We operate the process so you can show up ready and well-represented, without extra lift on your end. We typically kick off within two weeks, depending on our schedules—but if you’re on a tight timeline, let us know. We’ll do everything we can to move quickly and meet the moment with you.

Will our work together be confidential?

Yes. Your career story is personal, and it’s handled with the utmost care. Everything you share—your history, goals, and any sensitive details—remains private. All engagements are bound contractually and ethically to confidentiality, so you can speak openly, knowing your trust is protected.

Do you guarantee results?

While we don’t promise specific outcomes, we do promise a white-glove, concierge-level engagement and a transparent, collaborative process. Clients who are engaged and show up fully see the strongest results. You’ll come away with strategic visibility and deliverables that reflect your value, so that when the right opportunity lands, you’ll be ready. Depending on the scope of our work, deliverables could include professionally crafted materials that reflect who you are and where you're headed—a resume that opens doors, a LinkedIn profile that builds traction, bios that frame your value, and a plan that keeps momentum going.

What’s the ROI?

This isn’t just about the next job—it’s about your next level, and the legacy you leave through visibility and influence. One opportunity—a new client, a new job, a promotion, a board seat—can more than cover the investment. Beyond that, you’re investing in how your story and expertise shapes the future of your field.
