Chief of staff placement

A chief of staff takes on the work that needs a C-level executive's judgment but not their time.

What does a chief of staff do?

They prepare decisions for the executive and follow up on the ones already made. They sit in the meetings the executive can skip, speak for the executive there, and come back with what was agreed and who owns it.

If the calendar and travel are what's slipping, hire an executive assistant. A chief of staff shouldn't spend the week booking flights.

We start with where the executive's time goes now, and which of those hours they would hand to someone else.

That answer shapes the whole search. A chief of staff who will run an operation needs a different background from one who will mostly speak for the executive, and the candidates we put forward reflect which of the two you described. We interview every candidate and check their references before we present anyone.
