How We Work Together

Four ways into the work,
priced for the depth they require.

Some engagements are open. Some are scoped. A few are invitation-only. The tier signals depth, ownership, and how much of the firm a single client occupies — not whether you're allowed to apply.

Open Access

Monthly partnerships you can start this week.

Direct, ongoing engagements priced for individual operators and senior leaders. Apply, get reviewed within 2–3 business days, and start the same month. Month-to-month, cancel anytime.

By Invitation

Embedded operator partnerships, by application only.

Multi-month engagements where Khizer becomes part of your operating cadence. Limited to a handful of organizations at a time. Apply through the intake form and we'll tell you quickly if it's a fit.

Common Questions

What people ask before applying.

If most engagements are open, what does "by invitation" actually mean?
It means the embedded fractional-operator work — multi-month, deeply integrated into your operating cadence. We can only run a small handful of those at a time, so applications are reviewed against current capacity. Open and selective tiers don't have that constraint: apply and we'll respond within 2–3 business days.
Do you only work with Bay Area companies?
No. The firm was founded in the Bay Area and Khizer is based there, but we work with founders, operators, and growing teams worldwide. Most engagements run async, with the occasional intensive in person when it earns its travel.
How is coaching different from advisory?
Advisory is decision support — you have a question, we help you think it through. Coaching and accountability are about follow-through — the gap between the decision and the doing. Most senior leaders need both, but they hire for one and discover they needed the other.
Can we start with a smaller engagement and expand?
Yes, and most do. The async retainer or accountability tier is often the first month, then a weekend intensive or build follows once the priorities are clear. The invitation-only fractional engagement is rarely the first thing — it's where existing clients end up when the work goes deeper.
