Portrait of Amy Halpenny, fractional CRO and leadership advisor for growth-stage companies

Fractional Leadership

I work with founders and executive teams of startups and mid market companies navigating growth, complexity and leadership inflection points.

Why this moment matters:

Growth creates complexity. This is the moment to ensure your strategy, decision-making and execution are working together — not against each other — so growth feels scalable, and sustainable.

How I help?

Partnering with CEOs and executive teams as a Fractional CRO and Operator, I help bring strategic clarity and prioritization, build scalable, repeatable revenue engines, and strengthen leadership effectiveness.

Core capabilities include:

  • Strategic planning and prioritization

  • Translating strategy into aligned go-to-market execution

  • Operationalizing scalable revenue engines

  • Operating cadence and KPI discipline

  • Leadership development and team alignment

This is a hands-on partnership — designed to reduce bottlenecks, bring cohesion to execution, and help your company and your leadership team accelerate growth.

Let’s explore how I can help your team scale with clarity and confidence.

What makes Amy extraordinary is the rare mix of sharp strategy and genuine heart she brings to her coaching. She brought a fresh, insightful perspective to every challenge, and yet she always led with empathy, curiosity, and genuine care. She taught me how to build systems, advocate for my work, and step fully into my own leadership.”

    VP BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

  • “Amy was instrumental in my growth as a senior leader. She led me with compassion, challenged me to push myself outside of my comfort zone and always brought things back to the big picture. Her data-driven approach to leading our company shifted my perspective and pushed me to focus on our goals of efficiency and ambitious growth.  She trusted me to lead a new line of business and gave me the autonomy to shape that role, but always providing guidance when I reached out for advice. She’s an approachable leader and makes a genuine investment in the people on her team to help them grow however she can. I wouldn’t be the leader I am today without her mentorship.”
