Growth changes the company. Has your leadership architecture kept up?
Precilium works with CEOs and Chairs of funded MedTech scale-ups at critical stages of growth, combining leadership architecture with strategic executive search.
We start with the company’s critical milestones and work backwards to understand what needs to be true to deliver them, where the leadership architecture may need to evolve and whether new capability is required.
The Leadership Architecture Alignment Scorecard™ gives you a quick view of what is working, where alignment may be slipping and what may need attention next.
Already know what you want to discuss? Talk to Precilium.
The first signs rarely look serious.
- Decisions that once took days start taking weeks.
- Commercial, clinical, regulatory and technical leaders can all be right from where they sit, yet still pull the company in slightly different directions.
- Questions that should be resolved elsewhere keep finding their way back to the CEO.
Nothing is obviously broken. It just takes more effort to keep everything moving than it used to.
It doesn’t automatically mean you have the wrong people.
What looks like several problems may actually be one.
Leadership architecture isn’t the org chart. It’s how the company actually gets led.
It’s about who can make which decisions, where accountability really sits and whether the leadership capability matches what the company is trying to achieve.
Why now?
The next major milestone is getting closer
Commercialisation, international expansion or another critical milestone is moving from plan to delivery.
You already know something needs to change
The issue is visible. The question is what to change and in what order.
You need to make a critical appointment
A senior hire needs to be right not just for the role, but for the company you’re becoming.
We don’t start with the answer.
The point isn’t to justify a piece of work. It’s to understand what the company actually needs.
If we can help with what comes next, we stay involved. If that means bringing in expertise from outside Precilium, we do that too.
When a critical appointment really is what the company needs.
The search starts with what the company needs this person to deliver, not just the job description.
Before we go looking for someone, we want to understand what they’re actually walking into.
A brilliant appointment into the wrong architecture is still the wrong appointment.
The calibre of the people matters.
Precilium is led by Harun Rabbani, working in partnership with people who have operated at senior levels in their own right.
Harun’s strength lies in seeing across the business, recognising leadership potential and identifying where something needs deeper expertise. That is where Precilium’s partnerships add depth.
