Helping growing companies close the gap between who they are and how they operate.

Because the systems that got you here rarely get you to what’s next.

Put us in your Second Seat.

Advisory and workshops for leadership teams navigating the gap between who they are and how they operate.

Get Started

Your company has outgrown the way it operates. Most leadership teams don't realize it until growth starts to feel harder than it should.

Your clients still need you. You’ve hired the best team. But decisions take longer. Leaders are stretched thinner. Work that used to move fast now runs through too many hands, or too few.

That's not a people problem. It's a sign the way you operate hasn't caught up to the company you've become.

The Second Seat helps growing organizations close that gap — through hands-on advisory work with leadership teams, and through events and workshops that bring these same ideas to a room: keynotes, leadership offsites, team kickoffs, and employee workshops.

Different formats, same goal: help the people inside a growing company see clearly what's changed, and what needs to change next.

How I help:

  • Advisory — Working directly with leadership teams to diagnose where the organization is creating friction and redesign how work happens.

  • Talks & Workshops — Keynotes, offsites, and team sessions that help a broader audience recognize the patterns of a company outgrowing its own operating model — and what to do about it.

How We Support You

  • Founder & Executive Advisory

    Executive Leadership Advisory

    Working directly with executive teams to diagnose where the organization is creating friction — and where leaders are spending time they shouldn't be. We help clarify decision rights, rebuild delegation, and give leaders the space to lead instead of firefight.

  • Systemic Review

    Operations Audit

    A focused, outside look at how your organization actually operates — not how the org chart says it should. We surface where roles overlap, where decisions stall, and where accountability breaks down, and leave you with a clear picture of what to fix first.

  • Speaking & Events

    Leadership Off-sites, Conferences, Keynotes

    A structured session that pulls leadership teams out of the day-to-day to look honestly at how the organization is operating — and to align on what needs to change next. Part diagnostic, part working session, designed to leave with decisions made, not just discussed.

  • "Erin completely shifted the way we think about conflict in our organization. We now use it as a growth accelerator, our employee engagement has never been stronger, and our leadership team is more aligned than we’ve ever been."

    John G., CEO & Principal

  • "The data doesn’t lie. Our sales teams’ GTM productivity has drastically improved in just 6 months of implementing the tools we’ve learned with Erin’s guidance."

    Kate G., SVP, Business Development

  • "We didn’t even know we had a real systemic problem until we learned to navigate conflict skillfully. As a leader, this program has surfaced invaluable insight needed for me to serve my team at every level of the organization."
