Consulting

Who This Is For

Career Oxygen provides high-trust, high-impact consulting for organizations and leaders who need clarity, momentum, and experienced judgment — not another long-term contract or bloated engagement.

Our consulting model is intentionally simple:

  • Block-based
  • Outcome-oriented
  • Time-boxed
  • Confidential
  • Senior-led

This page is for:

  • Executives and individuals navigating career inflection points
  • SMBs needing senior HR, talent, or leadership expertise without building a full HR function
  • Organizations requiring short-term Fractional HR / Advisor support during transition, growth, or complexity

Our Consulting Focus Areas

HR & Workforce Strategy

  • Workforce planning and role design
  • Org structure and operating model alignment
  • HR capability assessment
  • Policy and practice modernization
  • People risk analysis during change
  • Executive and board-level HR advisory

Talent Strategy & Optimization

  • Hiring strategy and role calibration
  • Executive and leadership hiring support
  • Talent assessment and readiness diagnostics
  • Internal mobility and succession thinking
  • Talent process redesign
  • Transition and redeployment strategy (non-TransitionOS consulting)

Executive Coaching & Advisory

  • Executive decision support
  • Career inflection guidance
  • Leadership presence and credibility
  • Stakeholder navigation
  • Transition leadership
  • High-stakes conversations and positioning

(This is advisory coaching — not therapeutic, not generic leadership training.)

Management & Leadership Development

  • Manager effectiveness diagnostics
  • Leadership capability design
  • Manager readiness during change
  • Performance and accountability frameworks
  • Leadership operating rhythms
  • Custom leadership workshops (short-format)

How Our Block Model Works

We do not sell hourly consulting.

We work in prepaid blocks that protect both focus and outcomes.

Each block includes:

  • Live advisory sessions
  • Asynchronous review (documents, strategy, feedback)
  • Written guidance or artifacts as appropriate
  • Clear boundaries and expectations

Unused time does not expire during the engagement window.

Block Options & Pricing

Initial Client or Organization Consults

Notes:

Most blocks include live coaching and coordination sessions. Contracts specify which and how many direct/indirect coaching contact hours.

An initial call with our experts incurs a $250 charge for insights, access, or guidance. However, a contract deducts this initial charge from the total block hours purchased.

What This Is Not

We focus on thinking, direction, judgment, and execution support at the senior level.
