FAQs
-
We’ll start with a quick introductory session to talk about needs and help you pick an advisory package that works for you. Then we will set a schedule for follow up sessions. You may also be asked to take an onboarding survey to help us focus our sessions.

Anything you want! My goal is to ensure you are provided with valuable advice.

No. For an engagement as small as this, getting legal involved makes little financial sense. If the engagement materializes into a deeper relationship we can discuss the need to put an NDA or other agreements in place.
Fractional CISO
