North Point Advisors works as a fractional Chief of Staff to founders navigating governance, strategy, and execution under complexity.
We help founders identify where governance, strategy, and execution are being mis-sequenced — with AI often being the system that exposes those failures first.
These dimensions apply to any complex execution environment. AI compresses them into a single surface, making failure visible faster.
Most early failures aren't technical — they're governance gaps that surface too late to unwind.
Pilots proliferate without integration strategy. Architecture decisions get made by default, not design.
Initiatives run parallel to business objectives instead of reinforcing them. Investment decisions lack decision criteria.
Most founders buy capability before defining control structures. The tools work. The organisation doesn't know who owns the output.
Experimentation is encouraged. Integration is assumed. Six months later, no one can explain what's in production or who's accountable.
Engineering builds it. Leadership expects results. The gap between deployment and adoption becomes a cultural debt no one budgeted for.
We work as a fractional Chief of Staff for founders who need judgement on sequencing — not another vendor with a framework.
After seeing where execution pressure is accumulating, founders typically want a second set of eyes — not a report.
We begin with AI because it compresses governance, strategy, and execution failure into a single, observable surface.
Founders typically reach out after the assessment clarifies a sequencing issue they don't want to solve alone.
This is not a sales call. It is a judgement conversation.
