With over 20 years spent building my own company from the ground up and successfully selling it to Private Equity, I know firsthand the transition challenges founders face when new ownership takes the reins. My experience as a founder allows me to connect with portfolio company CEOs on a practical level, helping them align with PE goals while maintaining the entrepreneurial spirit that drives growth.

As a Private Equity CEO coach,

I work closely with portfolio CEOs through customized programs of 2, 3, or 4 strategy-focused meetings each month. In these sessions, we dive deep into key issues, co-develop practical solutions, implement them, and establish accountability through follow-up. This structured, iterative approach keeps CEOs on track and aligned with PE goals, while providing the flexibility to adjust as new challenges and opportunities emerge.

1:1 CEO Strategic Advisory

At ApexCEO, we believe in a tailored approach that addresses the specific needs of each CEO and their business.

Unlike one-size-fits-all programs, our methodology involves a deep dive into your company's operations, financials, and culture. We analyze your financial statements to uncover hidden messages and opportunities, focusing on improving both your business performance and quality of life as a leader.

From early growth through complex scale, our work focuses on the decisions that actually move the business forward. That means prioritizing what matters, cutting through noise, and creating clarity around where to spend time, capital, and attention. 

We help CEOs step out of reactive mode and into deliberate execution, with a clear view of tradeoffs and second-order effects. This advisory relationship is not about theory or generic frameworks.

It’s about pressure-testing decisions in real time, aligning the leadership team, and building an operating rhythm that supports sustainable growth. The result is a business that runs with more control, stronger margins, and fewer surprises — and a CEO who isn’t carrying the weight alone.

All of this work compounds into a business that is easier to operate, more predictable in performance, and better positioned for whatever outcome comes next — including a future sale or transition. If you want a slightly firmer or more PE-specific version, I can tune it one notch in either direction.
