INICIO

Restoring Control, Confidence and Value.

Senior leadership for businesses under pressure

Restoring control, confidence and value when performance, cash or credibility is at risk

INICIO provides hands-on, board-level turnaround and operational leadership services when decisions are difficult and time matters.

This is not advisory consulting – It is experienced execution.

When control or confidence is at risk

These engagements are for leadership teams, boards and investors who need immediate clarity, decisive action and experienced hands on the controls.

INICIO is typically brought in when performance has slipped, cash is tightening, delivery is faltering or external stakeholders are asking difficult questions — before options narrow unnecessarily.

Outcomes

• Rapid stabilisation and prioritisation
• Cashflow protection and stakeholder confidence
• Clear decisions in ambiguous or pressured situations
• Hands-on leadership to restore control and momentum

Typical entry points

• 30-Day Special Situations Diagnostic
• Business Stability Audit
• Cashflow Rescue Starter Pack

When capital, credibility or growth is on the line

As scrutiny increases — from lenders, investors or boards — ambition alone is not enough.

What matters is clarity, credibility, risk awareness and a disciplined, believable plan.

INICIO helps leadership teams present a coherent, investable case and build confidence that capital will be deployed effectively.

Where specialist debt support is required, we can bring in an SME debt advisory partner to strengthen lender strategy, documentation, and negotiation — while INICIO leads the operational reality, plan and delivery.

The outcome is confidence: a credible plan, decision-grade numbers, and a narrative that stands up under scrutiny.

Outcomes

• Lender and investor readiness
• Board-level narrative clarity
• Clear identification and mitigation of risk
• Practical focus on value creation

Typical entry points

• Lender & Investor Readiness Starter Pack
• Board / Investor Readiness Review

When strategy must turn into results

For businesses that are not in a turnaround - but where execution, structure or accountability is limiting progress.

This is senior operational leadership focused on delivery, predictability and performance - not theory.

You get a cadence, owners and follow-through that turns plans into measurable execution.

Outcomes

• Predictable execution and delivery
• Leadership accountability and cadence
• Scalable operating models
• Improved margin and operational performance

Typical entry points

• Leadership Cadence & Accountability Reset
• Operations & Process Mapping Sprint

When people and behaviour are the constraint

In many businesses, performance issues are not technical — they are behavioural.

Misalignment, unclear expectations and inconsistent leadership routines quietly undermine results, particularly during growth or pressure.

INICIO brings clarity, structure and accountability, grounded in real operational experience.

The aim is alignment: clear roles, consistent routines, and leadership confidence that holds under pressure.

Outcomes

• Clear roles and accountability
• Leadership alignment and confidence
• Cultural stability during periods of change

Typical entry points

• People & Culture — Leadership Clarity Pack

Interim / Fractional Leadership Support

Carry the plan through inside the business - cadence, delivery, stakeholder confidence.

Outcomes

• Weekly operating cadence + execution follow-through
• Hands-on leadership of the critical workstreams (cash, delivery, reporting, team alignment)
• Stakeholder-ready updates (owners, board, lenders/investors)

Typical structure

• Duration: 2–6 months, with time-bound review points
• Starts after (or alongside) a diagnostic when speed matters

Not sure where to start?

Most clients begin with a short, fixed-price diagnostic.

It creates clarity, exposes risk and defines the right next step — without committing to a long engagement.

These entry points are deliberately practical, contained and decisive.
