Re-accelerate. Reinvent. Reboot | Executive Mentor | Tech COO, VP & PMO Head

I’ve spent most of my career inside companies when things were hard.
 
Scaling. Restructuring. Turning around operations under pressure. Managing growth across cultures, time zones, and incomplete information.

I’ve been a CEO, COO, President, and Global VP, leading teams across North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. I’ve carried the responsibility of $1B contracts and P&Ls up to $115M, and led major transformation programs impacting more than 6,000 people. Most recently, I ran an AI data company with 1,000+ people across Madagascar and Mauritius.

When ambition runs ahead of structure.  When strategy exists, but execution doesn’t stick.  When the playbook is missing, and decisions still need to be made.
 
𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆: 
I partner with a small number of founders, CEOs, and boards, often in AI and Global South contexts- to bring clarity, discipline, and momentum when complexity creeps in. 

• 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗢𝗢 𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁: For companies in active transition.
• 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿/𝗧𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿: For high-stakes decision-making and scale.
• 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗿: For Global South executives navigating Western capital markets.

I also write about AI, power, and leadership - specifically how emerging markets can scale without simply inheriting Northern tech assumptions. Most of that thinking lives here: 📬 https://ericraza.substack.com/
