"Daniel and Alice make a brilliant team — sharp strategic minds and outstanding leaders."
Our story
We kept seeing the same thing: When a company wasn’t performing, the root cause was often the leadership team. Fix that, and everything else followed.
That insight is the foundation Vasari is built on: The leadership team shapes everything that happens in a company.
Get it wrong, and everything starts to feel reactive and painful. Get it right, and the business runs smoothly, with every part firing on all cylinders.
This is why we believe that building an exceptional leadership team is the highest-leverage move a CEO can make. It’s a belief shaped not just by what we’ve seen — but by the challenges and changes we’ve navigated together.
But here’s the thing: Building and leading that team is harder than anyone tells you.
You need to attract top leaders, then shape them into a team that works — one whose collective impact is far greater than the sum of its parts.
And it doesn’t stop there. You need to build trust, drive alignment, and lead through constant change. It’s one of the hardest and loneliest jobs a CEO faces.
That’s where we come in. We partner with CEOs to build leadership teams that truly perform — helping unlock that flow state that’s critical for success. We’re in their corner every step of the way.
How we work with you
A flexible set of services to help build exceptional leadership teams — offered individually or combined,
depending on what your team needs most.
Embedded Leadership Coaching
We work alongside the CEO and exec team as embedded leadership coaches — providing a mix of strategic advisory, team coaching, and practical support.
• Embedded support for CEOs and leadership teams
• Regular coaching, in-the-moment challenge and support
• Flexes from light-touch to hands-on transformation
• Retainer-based, tailored to your level of need
Vasari Diagnostic: Organisational Health Review
A standalone insight phase with rich insights. We get under the skin of your organisation — surfacing what’s working, what’s misfiring, and where to focus next.
• Interviews with key leaders and stakeholders
• Review of org data (structure, engagement, turnover etc.)
• Clear outputs: heat map, insights and recommendations
• Starting point for a partnership — but valuable on its own
Joint Fractional Leadership (CPO + COO blend)
When businesses need hands-on executive support — but not a full-time hire — we step in together. Ideal for moments of transition, scale, or restructure.
• We act as a short-term CPO/COO pair
• Provide dedicated operational and people leadership
• Part-time or project-based
• Available on a day-rate or short-term basis.
Executive Placement & Onboarding
We help shape and place the right senior leaders into your business — focusing not just on role fit, but on team dynamics and long-term success.
• Define the profile of the leader you really need
• Partner with search providers or lead the process ourselves
• Define & help coordinate the internal assessment process
• Support onboarding and team integration
Proven Operators
We’ve led from the C-suite — hired execs, scaled teams, and navigated change and pressure. We know what it takes because we’ve lived it. That means we bring real-world judgement to your toughest leadership decisions, not theory.
One trusted partner, a holistic approach
Coaching, team development, and hiring — not in silos, but as one joined-up partnership. CEOs don’t need more providers. They need a unified approach that builds a more aligned, higher-performing leadership team.
Our focus: world-class exec teams
We don’t try to do everything — our strength lies in helping CEOs build, shape, and lead high-performing leadership teams. This gives us an edge in helping you attract the right leaders, align them, and turn them into a true team.
We’re in your corner
We build deep, responsive partnerships with CEOs and exec teams — the kind where you can message us when something’s live, call when you need to talk it through, and trust we’ll show up when it counts. Need to hash something out over breakfast tomorrow? We’ll be there.
