What Changes When Operations Get Fixed

You get time back

A clean delegation protocol defines what gets handed off, to whom, with what authority and what success looks like.

The team owns more

We design an accountability rhythm - 1:1 cadence, team meetings and scorecards - so decisions move down the org.

Daily work matches the plan

Strategic planning is tied to operations, so what happens every week actually moves long-term goals.

Ready to scale, not just grow

Scale-up readiness and profitable-growth planning prepare the business to adapt, not just get bigger.

Built to last past the engagement

You keep the systems. The operating rhythm and frameworks continue running after the work ends.

How a Small Business Operations Consultant Works With You

EVP Leadership is led by Gennifer Baker, a C-level executive consultant with more than 30 years in business strategy and leadership. Since 2009 she has advised thousands of entrepreneurs and executive teams on increasing profitability, strengthening operations and building systems designed to last.

Most owner-led businesses stall for the same reasons: the founder is the bottleneck, delegation is weak, accountability is unclear and there is no consistent operating discipline. We treat those as one connected operating system, not separate skills, and rebuild them together.

  • Operations review and operating-rhythm design
  • Delegation protocol: what, to whom, what authority, what success criteria
  • Accountability system: scorecards, 1:1 cadence, performance conversations
  • Strategic planning that aligns daily operations to long-term goals
  • Profitable growth, scale-up readiness and exit-readiness leadership work
  • Leadership team alignment and leadership pipeline / succession support
  • Execution-discipline framework from the PressurePoint System Execution Layer
  • Delivered in person and virtually across the United States

Frequently asked questions

How much does an operations consulting engagement cost?

Pricing is custom to the engagement. Focused delegation, accountability and operating-discipline work usually runs 60 to 90 days, while C-level consulting is a multi-month strategic partnership. The scoping conversation clarifies scope and cost.

Do you work with businesses outside Colorado?

Yes. EVP Leadership is headquartered in Littleton, Colorado, and works with small and mid-size businesses across the United States, in person and virtually. We do not work outside the United States.

Is this consulting or coaching?

Both, depending on what you need. Engagements can cover strategic planning and operations review, 1:1 founder and executive coaching, or facilitated leadership team work. The scoping call sets the right mix.

How long before things change?

Engagements are typically scoped at 30 to 90 days for focused work, or multi-month for broader strategic partnerships. Results depend on scope, so we define the timeline together during scoping.

We're a small owner-led business. Are we too small?

No. Small business owners, owner-operators and family business principals are a core focus. Large enterprise and Fortune 500 corporate training contracts are not a fit.

Do you handle bookkeeping, HR or marketing?

No. We do not provide accounting, legal, financial advisory, recruiting, HR outsourcing or marketing services. Our work is leadership, strategy and operating-discipline consulting.
