Firms Need a Fractional
Chief Operating Officer
A fractional COO (fCOO) gives firms operating horsepower exactly when it matters most - during growth, transition, and transformation - without the fixed cost or ramp time of a full-time executive. When firms are seeking market lift, navigating leadership changes, or undertaking process and technology transformation, the fCOO streamlines front-to-back workflows, strengthens governance and risk management, and aligns people, platforms, and controls - turning fragmented efforts into disciplined execution and predictable outcomes.

"LKE has been a phenomenal partner for us on our growth journey. There are so many nuanced necessities that go into managing the day-to-day of a firm and the peace of mind knowing Chau was on it, allowed us to focus more on the ways in which we could scale. There was implicit trust and the speed and quality of her work was impressive!"
