The weekly rhythm we install
A simple, durable cadence that keeps your operating system alive, so progress continues long after the project ends.
• Start the week by aligning priorities, owners, and workloads across teams so everyone knows what matters now.
• Use a short mid-week review to surface blockers, rebalance capacity, and adjust plans before things slip.
• End the week by capturing lessons learned and updating playbooks so each cycle gets easier and calmer.

What is The Helix Method™?
The Helix Method™ is a structured, six-movement way to turn founder-dependent firefighting into a calm operating system. Over 90 days we map how work really happens, align outcomes and ownership, simplify tools and workflows, make work and risk visible, and install a simple weekly rhythm your team can actually run. The result is a company that feels calmer, ships more reliably, and gives leadership a clear line of sight into what’s working – without everything running through one person.
Who is it for?
The Helix Method™ is built for founder-led companies where growth has outpaced systems. Most of our work is with healthcare services (plus SaaS and professional services) in the $10M+ range. If decisions bottleneck at the founder, tools have multiplied but visibility hasn’t, and delivery feels “stable but fragile,” you’re in the right place.
How much time does it take?
The core Helix Method™ engagement runs for 90 days. During that time, you can expect one to two focused working sessions per week, plus light async collaboration in between. Your team gets real progress each week without giving anyone another full-time job. After the first 90 days, many clients keep us on as a light fractional CTO retainer. That usually looks like a few days a month to steward the operating system we’ve built together, support new initiatives, and keep things calm and on-track, without needing a full-time executive.
