Who We Help

 We partner with organizations ready to strengthen strategy, streamline operations, and scale with clarity.

Founders & Growth-Stage Businesses


When the business has outgrown instinct and needs clearer priorities, stronger structure, and better execution.

CEOs & Executive Teams


When leadership needs outside strategic firepower to align the organization and move through complexity.

Chiefs of Staff & Senior Operators


When the business needs sharper planning, better cross-functional coordination, and more disciplined follow-through.

How We Work

Our approach combines strategic rigor with pragmatic execution focus.

Senior-Led

You work with experienced principals who've navigated complexity at scale.

Execution-Focused

We're measured by outcomes, not deliverables. Strategy matters only if it moves. We embed accountability in everything we do.

Built to Leave

Our goal is to accelerate your capabilities, not create dependency. We build lasting capability in your team.

Diagnose


We identify what is actually slowing execution, not just what is easiest to blame. 

Prioritize


We help leadership teams make sharper strategic choices and define what matters most now.

Align


We clarify roles, decision-making, and operating rhythm so teams can move together

Execute


We stay close enough to help momentum build, not just hand over a deck and disappear.

5. Transfer Capability


We build systems and leadership muscle so progress continues without long-term dependency.

 

Every engagement follows a clear arc: we listen deeply, identify root causes, design solutions collaboratively, lead implementation, and transition accountability back to your team.

 

What Makes Us Different

✓   Senior advisors stay involved


You work directly with experienced operators, not a revolving bench.

 

✓    Accountability is part of the work

We help install the cadence, metrics, and follow-through strategy needs to stick.



✓   Speed Without Sacrifice


Speed matters, but not at the expense of alignment and adoption.

 

✓    We build capability, not dependency

The goal is a stronger leadership team after we leave.

Results

Selected outcomes from strategy, transformation, and execution engagements of our team.

 Professional Services 

The Execution Gap

 

From Vision to Execution. 

A professional services firm had growth ambitions but no operational infrastructure to back them. They knew they needed operational leadership — but not a full-time COO. We embedded as fractional COO — designing OKRs, dashboards, and automated workflows to close the gap between strategy and reality.

Result: 20% profitability increase and real-time visibility into business performance.

 

 Tech 

Capital Without Clartity

 

$10M and No Framework to Govern It 

A business unit inside a major technology firm had significant investment capital but no structured way to prioritize, allocate, or measure it. We designed and implemented the governance framework to manage the full portfolio, aligning funds to strategic priorities and building performance management processes to evaluate impact.

Result: Investment reviews became data-driven, not political, with clear visibility into what to stop, start, or continue.

 Financial Services 

The Hidden Capacity

 

23 New Roles. Zero Budget Increase.

A financial services firm's finance division was over-reliant on contractors and consultants, with no dedicated analytics or business partner capacity. We conducted a benchmarking and org design assessment — identifying how to convert contractors, reduce consulting spend, and fund net-new headcount within the existing cost envelope.

Result: $1.8M in annual savings and 23 cost-neutral positions added, transforming finance from a reactive function into a strategic partner.

Aaron Poh

Aaron Poh is a strategic advisor, fractional executive, and founder of Aspen Strategy Group, where he works with leaders to turn strategy into real execution.

With experience spanning Fortune 500 companies, growth-stage businesses, and complex organizations, Aaron has led strategic planning, organizational design, and transformation efforts where alignment, clarity, and follow-through were not optional—they were critical.

He has operated at the center of executive teams, helping leaders navigate high-stakes decisions, align their organizations, and build the systems required to execute with discipline.

Through Aspen Strategy Group — and the Aspen Strategy Collective — he continues to help founders, CEOs, and leadership teams move beyond strategy as a concept and into strategy as a system.
