For business
You have a hybrid policy. You don't have a hybrid design.
36% of employers increased required on-site days over the past year, while 64% of workers say work-life balance and remote options would motivate them to change jobs. That gap isn't a policy problem — it's an operating-model problem, and it's why your best distributed people leave without ever filing a complaint.

Engagements
Three productized services.
No open-ended retainers, no discovery phase that bills for six weeks. Each engagement has a defined scope, a duration, and a deliverable you own at the end.
Remote Readiness Audit
$5,000 USD
3 weeks
Evidence before opinion. We measure how your distributed work actually functions today and give leadership a prioritized picture they can act on.
Deliverables
- Leadership and staff interviews (8–12 people)
- Calendar and meeting-load analysis
- Documentation coverage assessment
- Async maturity score across five dimensions
- Promotion and access equity review
- Prioritized findings report with a 90-day sequence
- 90-minute findings presentation to leadership
Transition Playbook
$18,000–$25,000 USD
8–10 weeks
The full operating system for distributed work, designed for your company rather than lifted from a blog post — then piloted with a real team before rollout.
Deliverables

- Written remote operating system and decision-rights model
- Meeting architecture redesign
- Documentation standard and single-source-of-truth design
- Manager enablement curriculum and two live sessions

Fractional Head of Remote
$4,000–$8,000 USD
per month
Ongoing ownership without a full-time hire. We hold the remit, drive the changes, and report to your leadership team on a cadence.
Deliverables
- Named owner for distributed-work strategy
- Weekly working sessions with your leadership
- Manager coaching on distributed leadership
- Quarterly async maturity re-measurement
- Policy, tooling, and vendor decisions
- Direct escalation path for remote-inclusion issues
Who we work with
Two kinds of companies — and we're honest about the difference.
One of these engagements moves fast because the buyer already knows the problem exists. The other is real work that takes longer to start. We'd rather tell you which one you are up front.
Where we start
Fastest fitAlready-distributed companies whose operating system never got designed
Usually 20 to 200 people. You went remote or hybrid in an emergency and never went back to fix the operating system. You've been distributed long enough that everyone assumes you're good at it, and in practice you inherited habits from a scramble: meeting sprawl, tribal knowledge, and onboarding that depends on whoever happens to be free that week.
These engagements move fastest because you already know you have a problem, you have budget for it, and you're looking for someone credible rather than someone to convince you. The values are already right; what's missing is architecture — decision rights, documentation standards, and managers trained for the job they actually have.
Longer horizon
Slower cycleBrick-and-mortar organizations going distributed
Your culture was built on proximity and it worked. Now you're hiring outside your metro, keeping people who moved, or closing floors — and everything that used to happen implicitly has to be made explicit.
The risk here is nostalgia disguised as strategy: mandating days in the office to recreate a feeling, without redesigning how decisions travel. This work is genuinely valuable and it starts slower — buyers are cautious, teams are under-resourced, and the problem often has to be evidenced before it can be solved. That's what the Readiness Audit is for.
Workshops
Shorter engagements, delivered live.
Half-day and full-day sessions for teams that want a specific capability rather than a full transition. Delivered remotely or on site.
Running Meetings Worth Attending
from $2,500 USDA half-day working session that rebuilds your recurring meeting calendar in the room. Teams typically leave having deleted 20–30% of their standing meetings.
Writing That Prevents Meetings
from $2,500 USDHands-on async writing practice for managers and ICs: decision logs, status updates, and proposals that get approved without a call.
Managing People You Can't See
from $3,500 USDFor managers trained in a room. Output-based evaluation, written feedback, protected one-on-ones, and how to spot disengagement across a screen.
Designing Hybrid On Purpose
from $4,000 USDA leadership session that turns your hybrid schedule into an actual design: what happens in person, what happens in writing, and who decides.
