About 10X

We help leaders and organizations perform when the old way no longer works.

10X Leadership Consulting partners with organizations facing growth, transition, underperformance, or a mandate larger than their current capacity. We look at the whole organization (leadership, people, process, and technology) to find where performance actually breaks down. We diagnose before we recommend, we tell you the truth in a constructive way, and we stay with you through execution.

We are based in historic Camden, South Carolina, and work with clients anywhere, in person or virtually.

WHO WE SERVE

Private Companies

Leadership teams working through growth, stalled performance, or operational friction between departments.

Government Agencies

Public-sector leaders delivering on their mission under tight resources, public accountability, and changing priorities.

Nonprofit Organizations

Executives and boards strengthening the structure, systems, and leadership capacity behind their mission.

Boards and Executive Teams

Leaders navigating governance, executive transition, difficult decisions, and alignment between the board and the executive.

HOW WE WORK

Diagnose.

We identify where performance actually breaks down across leadership, people, process, and technology. We do not arrive with predetermined answers.

Advise.

We provide candid, practical recommendations grounded in executive operating experience, not theory.

Execute.

We work alongside your leaders to turn decisions into plans, measures, and results.

WHAT GUIDES US

Everything rises and falls on leadership. Our work is shaped by a small set of principles: do what is right because it is right, deliver more, better, and before what is expected, treat every person with dignity and respect, take ownership of the outcome, and stay curious about what can be improved.

OUR FOUNDER

Chris is a turnaround executive, leadership advisor, and retired U.S. Air Force Command Chief Master Sergeant with more than 30 years of experience leading people and organizations through complexity, transition, and change. His career has centered on stepping into challenging environments, diagnosing what is not working, rebuilding trust and organizational capacity, and turning strategy into measurable results. His leadership has produced outcomes including a 250% increase in organizational productivity, employee engagement rising from 50% to 95%, the rebuilding of an organization following complete staff attrition, and the deployment of more than $53 million in capital.

Today, through 10X Leadership Consulting, Chris advises CEOs, boards, and executive teams on organizational turnaround, leadership transitions, governance, strategy, and execution.

IN OUR CLIENTS’ WORDS

“10X Leadership Consulting did a phenomenal job for our organization. We were experiencing delays in delivering work to our clients because of inefficiencies between departments, and it was beginning to cost us business, including relationships with longtime clients.

What impressed me most was their approach. They didn’t come in with predetermined answers. They took the time to engage our team, understand how the work was actually getting done, and diagnose the root causes before recommending solutions. The recommendations were practical, straightforward, and something we could actually execute.

The results were significant. We stopped the customer losses, improved how our teams worked together, and were able to reengage several clients and earn back their trust. 10X didn’t just identify what was wrong. They helped us understand why it was happening and gave us a clear path to fix it.”
