What if the reason your business can’t scale isn’t your people or product—but a lack of systems to carry your vision?
In this Systems Simplified episode, host Adi Klevit talks with Stephanie Allen, a fractional COO and consultant who helps founders build operational infrastructure and self-managed teams. Stephanie shares how her early experience running a hot dog stand taught her that success can't be sold unless it can be replicated—a lesson that fuels her system-first approach today.
Stephanie outlines her three-phase engagement model: assessment, implementation, and acceleration. She explains how systems empower team members, reduce founder dependency, and unlock creativity instead of stifling it. Together, she and Adi debunk myths around rigid systems, explore how culture and process intersect, and explain why over-architecting may signal a deeper trust issue in your company.
Whether you're a founder ready to delegate or an executive looking to improve execution, this episode offers a practical roadmap to structure your company for growth without sacrificing flexibility.
