Donelle G.

I work as a Chief of Staff for founders and CEOs, providing real-time execution, operational support, and follow-through so leadership decisions turn into action. Previously served as Vice President of Operations, acting as an executive right hand and leading cross-functional execution in a fast-growth environment. I partner directly with founders to manage priorities, projects, and cross-functional execution, acting as a strategic right hand embedded in day-to-day operations. With 10+ years supporting executives and leadership teams, I’ve helped fast-moving organizations stay aligned, accountable, and focused — even as priorities shift. Founders bring me in when execution is slipping, communication gaps are slowing teams down, or they need a true Chief of Staff — not task-by-task assistance. WHAT I OWN DAY-TO-DAY FOR FOUNDERS & CEOs - Execution & project oversight: initiative tracking, Trello/ClickUp management, follow-ups, accountability - Founder support: live meeting support, calendar control, executive communications, rapid task intake - Operations & reporting: KPIs, dashboards, vendor coordination, risk flagging If it touches the founder’s time, priorities, or execution — I handle it. HOW I WORK I operate as an extension of the founder, with full ownership of execution and follow-through. I am highly responsive and comfortable working live during business hours and staying closely aligned as priorities shift. I don’t need micromanagement — I anticipate needs, surface risks early, and keep momentum moving even when priorities shift. NOT A FIT IF: - You’re looking for occasional, task-only support - You need heavy micromanagement - You want the lowest-cost option rather than a strategic execution partner
