Most engagements are confidential. The examples below illustrate the types of founder partnerships I take on without identifying clients or confidential information.


The first PurposeFund engagement was with the founder of an international service business that had outgrown its original operating model. What began as one founder sharing experiences with another evolved into a six-month engagement focused on growth, operating discipline, and organizational design.
Working alongside the founder as a fractional COO, Charles helped redesign the commercial model and build the operating structure required for the next stage of growth.
The lesson that emerged was simple: the right systems can transform a successful service business into a durable institution. That idea became the foundation of PurposeFund.

The work spans strategy, people, operating discipline, payer relationships, and long-term positioning as the company scales within a category most competitors still misunderstand.

An advisory engagement with the founder of a Canadian behavioural health company entering a period of transition.
The work focused on succession planning, ownership structure, leadership development, and the founder’s long-term role in the business. Some of the most important decisions in a founder’s journey happen during moments of transition.

An advisory engagement with the founder of a Canadian human services company operating in a sector closely aligned with Charles’s own experience.
The work focused on operating discipline, regulatory navigation, stakeholder relationships, and the long-term decisions that determine whether a service company becomes a durable institution rather than simply a successful business.
