Fractional COO and operations consulting in Miami
Where operational rigor meets the science of people.
I help private-equity-backed companies protect deal value through turnarounds and integrations, and I help small business owners build the systems that let their teams run without them.
Dr. Julienne Guischard, Ph.D. Based in Miami, Florida. Serving Florida and nationwide.
For PE-backed and growth-stage companies
Advisory for operating partners, deal teams, and leadership teams navigating an acquisition, an underperforming market, or a scale-up that has outgrown its systems.
For small businesses
For owners who are still the answer to every question. I build the processes, roles, and numbers that let your business grow without running you into the ground.
Most turnarounds fail on the people side.
Culture clash, talent flight, weak management, and teams that never align behind the new model quietly erase value, whether it's a portfolio company after close or a growing small business.
I bring two disciplines that rarely live in one advisor: a decade of hands-on operational leadership across multi-state portfolios, and doctoral training in how leaders and teams actually perform.
The result is consulting that fixes both halves, the operating model and the human system underneath it, with measurable accountability from day one.
How we work together
Diagnose
A rapid, evidence-based read of your operations and the people behind them, surfacing the real constraints, not the obvious ones.
Design
A prioritized plan with the systems, leaders, and metrics that will move performance, sequenced for the first 90 to 100 days.
Embed
Execution alongside your team so the change holds after I leave, with reporting that outlasts the engagement.
Catalyst, the AI growth coach for revenue teams
The same psychology-informed playbook I bring to clients, as a self-serve tool. Coach reps through real problems, design the right KPIs, build coaching SOPs, and understand each seller's style in minutes.
“Performance is a human system. Fix the people side, and the numbers follow.”
A rare hybrid: operator and psychologist
Dr. Julienne Guischard has owned P&L performance across multi-state portfolios of 20+ locations, led post-acquisition integrations to stability within 60 days of close, and turned underperforming markets into high performers within 90.
She pairs that track record with a doctorate in psychology, giving her a clinician's eye for the leadership and culture problems most operators never see.
