About the job
The Chief of Staff plays a pivotal role in bridging the visionary goals of CEO Megan Hyatt Miller with the operational execution necessary to achieve Full Focus's objectives.
Megan's greatest asset to Full Focus lies in her vision for the company's future, her strategic decision-making capabilities, and her role as the primary thought leader and intellectual property steward. It is essential that her vision is translated into actionable plans, which the Chief of Staff will facilitate.
To maximize Megan's contributions, the Chief of Staff will oversee project sequencing, cross-functional collaborations, operational processes, performance tracking, and presentation preparations. Given that these tasks are outside Megan's passion and skill set, the Chief of Staff is crucial in ensuring they are effectively managed.
Key Responsibilities:
- Execution: Serve as Megan's operational support, either by personally executing tasks or delegating them to ensure they are completed efficiently.
- Systems Design: Develop and manage robust systems and processes that guide the company towards its strategic goals, minimizing the need for Megan's direct involvement.
- Advocacy: Actively protect Megan's focus by using tools like the MAPS Index and Freedom Compass to prioritize her tasks while managing everything else effectively.
- Leadership: Lead a dedicated team of operational specialists across finance, HR, and facilities, balancing direct contributions with team management.
Ultimately, the Chief of Staff is responsible for maintaining Megan's clarity and focus. They will determine her priorities and ensure that all other matters are attended to, whether through their own efforts, the systems they establish, or by coordinating resources.
The ideal candidate will possess a high degree of adaptability, as Megan's personal commitments may require swift adjustments to plans. The Chief of Staff should be able to accommodate such changes while keeping operations on track without imposing rigid processes.
It is important to note that this role does not view Megan's limited Follow Through or her challenges with Tenacity and Enablement as flaws. Instead, these are inherent aspects of her design, and the Chief of Staff's role is to support and enhance her effectiveness.
