Marc de GIBON
Fractional CxO | Business Builder
Execution Partner for Growth-Stage CEOs
Most CEOs at growth stage don’t lack vision.
They lack someone who can sit next to them, translate that vision into execution, and own the outcome.
That’s what I do.
I operate as a Fractional CxO, 2 to 3 days a week, embedded in the business, not on the sidelines. I take on the COO, CPO, or CCO function depending on where the real bottleneck is. I build what’s missing, fix what’s broken, and leave something that runs without me.

WHAT YOU GET
FROM DAY 1
A sparring partner. 25 years in business I’ve « already seen the movie before«Â
Challenging your assumptions, surfacing your blind spots, and pushing back when you’re heading into the wrong wall. Not a consultant who validates. A co-pilot who’s already been through the turbulence.
WITHIN 2 TO 4 WEEKS
Full visibility on what is blocking you and exactly what to do about it.
I use AI as a diagnostic and execution accelerator. Pattern recognition that used to take months, I compress into days. You get a structured audit faster, with fewer blind spots. I map every blocker, rank them by impact on your actual objective, and deliver a prioritized action plan. You leave with actionable levers . No 80-slide deck. Decisions you can act on immediately.
AS THE ENGAGEMENT CONTINUES
Execution with you until the business moves.
Change management, product roadmap driven by business KPIs, team alignment, investor support. I stay until results are visible, not until the contract ends.
