Who we work with

Mid-market100 to 1,000 employees

The strategy, then the team to deliver it.

For CEOs, COOs, CFOs and PE operating partners. We assess where the business stands, build the strategy and transformation plan for the next three years, then fill execution gaps from our specialist bench.

Mid-market services

Small businesses

A fractional growth partner.

For owners and founders. Launch, get known, grow and scale, and use technology to run leaner.

You work directly with our founder, Phil Reese, as an ongoing advisor.

Small business services

Transformations stall in two places: before the plan, and after it.

Before: There’s no coherent vision, and the executive team isn’t aligned on what has to change.

After: Companies buy the tools, give out licenses, then stall on adoption, governance and changing how people actually work.

We close both gaps: a vision and strategy your leadership team stands behind, then execution and adoption reinforcement to carry it through. We’ll turn your AI and transformation ambitions into measurable results.

Phil Reese

Founder

Led from the inside.

Phil Reese founded Stedmont after leading enterprise AI strategy, adoption and governance as VP of Transformation at a healthcare technology company. Earlier, he ran customer operations as a VP and led startup tech teams as a Technology Director, after starting his career as a software developer.

He launched his first business from his college dorm room and has started several since. He is a Prosci Certified Change Practitioner who believes organizational change succeeds or fails on whether people adopt it and stick with it.
