Fractional OD
The Partner You Want When Culture is On the Line
Fractional OD isn’t “consulting lite.” It’s executive-level organizational development embedded inside your business without the full-time salary line. Boards and CEOs bring me in when the stakes are high. Mergers, succession, expansion, or the slow bleed of culture drift.
I’ve sat in Fortune 100 boardrooms, founder-owned startups, nonprofits fighting for survival, and everything in between. I’ve navigated acquisitions where culture was the deal breaker, guided leaders through generational succession planning, and rebuilt organizations so they didn’t just survive, they scaled.
If you’re looking for a binder of recommendations, call a consultant. If you’re looking for a guide who has been there, will sit in it with you, and knows how to move you forward, that’s this work.
“Linda is the perfect blend of energy, expertise, enthusiasm, and grace. Linda is an HR professional who knows her stuff AND knows how to share just the right pieces, depending on the client and the situation. She is firm, diplomatic and engaging. She works equally well with artsy nonprofit groups and corporate firms with hundreds of employees. Her presentation style is always about delivering information that will help the group and she knows how to do that using just the right amount of humor, data, tales of woe and inspiring examples. ”

Expansion. Not extraction.
Most “efficiency plays” squeeze people until they burn out. Fractional OD is about expansion, building systems that scale, not ones that collapse under the weight of your ambition.
Here’s what that looks like in practice:
• Talent continuity plans that cascades culture, not just swaps titles.
• Organizational resilience, structures that flex instead of break.
• Culture transformation, where purpose fuels performance instead of draining it.
If your organization is going through a major transition or you just feel like it’s time for a “human check-in” with your team, book a call to explore the possibilities with Linda.
Your system won’t fix itself.
If you’re serious about culture, leadership, and resilience, this is the moment to invest. Fractional OD isn’t a workshop. It’s a strategic partnership that changes how your organization grows and how it thrives.
I’ve been there. We can go there. Let’s start.
