The Rise of the Fractional Executive: A 57% Surge Since 2020
Understanding the Fractional Executive Trend
Not a Trend, a Revolution: The Fractional Executive role has surged 57% since 2020. I present what is driving this shift.

Warning, there will be many people who call themselves fractional executives, but like any profession, expect quality issues. Try to find the top 10% who are more than "fractional CMOs" for example. Look for business athletes who can work across departments.

Choose fractionals who have at least 10 years of being a successful VP or C-level, have presented in multiple public company boardrooms, and have a leadership track record anyone would want.

If you're a CEO, you deserve more leverage (strategy, execution, collaboration) from this role.

Not every company needs a fractional executive, but for a growing number of companies in our AI Era, it is becoming the preferred choice.
