10x For Executives

Are you an experienced C-level executive? Have you been on the start-up to scale-up road before? Why should you consider becoming a fractional leader and 10x-er? Check out this section to get answers to these questions and more.

No more monolopizing of your time

You are not monopolizing your time because you work part-time for multiple companies, rather than full-time for one. As a result, you can provide your expertise and leadership to different organizations simultaneously. This enables companies to benefit from the experience and knowledge of a highly skilled professional, without having to pay for a full-time executive. You have the flexibility to choose the assignments that interest you and can balance your workload accordingly. This allows you to maintain a diverse portfolio of customers and avoid becoming overly committed to any one company or project. Being a fractional leader allows you to leverage your expertise across multiple organizations while still maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

Channelize your expertise

As a fractional leader, you can channelize your expertise by working with multiple companies and clients in the same industry or sector. This enables you to focus on specific areas where you have the most experience and knowledge, tailor your services to the needs of each client, and provide high-value services. You can avoid monopolizing your time by working part-time for multiple companies, maintain a healthy work-life balance, and choose assignments that interest you. By leveraging your experience and network, you can provide guidance and mentorship to the companies you work with and build lasting relationships that benefit all parties involved. Joining a fractional professional platform, such as 10x, can help you access a community and assignments that match your skills and interests, and work with world-class companies seeking top-tier talent.

Focus on your strenghts

As a fractional leader, you can focus on your strengths by working with multiple clients and organizations in the same industry or sector, tailoring your services to meet the specific needs of each client. This enables you to gain exposure to a range of business models and practices, and build deeper expertise in your field, which in turn allows you to provide high-value services and help clients achieve their goals more effectively. By choosing the assignments that match your skills and interests, you can balance your workload, maintain a diverse portfolio of clients, and avoid becoming spread too thin, all while leveraging your expertise, experience, and network to build lasting relationships that benefit everyone involved.

Get compensated well and in time

As a fractional leader, you are compensated well because you bring a high level of expertise and experience to each assignment you take on. By focusing on your strengths and tailoring your services to meet the specific needs of each client, you are able to deliver exceptional value and help clients achieve their goals more effectively. As a result, clients are willing to pay a premium for your services, and you are able to command a higher rate than you might be able to as a full-time employee. In addition, by working on a fractional basis, you have more control over your workload and can balance your assignments to maximize your earnings potential. This enables you to earn a competitive income while maintaining a flexible and fulfilling work-life balance.

Build a varied career-path

As a fractional leader, building a varied career-path is possible because you have the flexibility to work on multiple assignments with different clients across different industries. This allows you to gain exposure to a wide range of businesses and challenges, which in turn enables you to build a diverse skill set and adapt to new opportunities as they arise. By embracing a varied career path, you can gain valuable experience in different fields and explore new interests, which can open up new avenues for growth and development. This can also help you to stay engaged and motivated in your work, as you are constantly learning and adapting to new challenges and opportunities.

Experience & Mentality

Is it for Me?

You might wonder if becoming a fractional leader is something for you. The easiest thing to do, is to check two criteria:

  • I have start-up or scale-up experience
