Yes. A Chief of Staff is typically a senior role trusted to help an executive or leadership team turn priorities into coordinated action. The work may include strategic planning, operating cadence, cross-functional initiatives, decision support, and follow-through. A fractional Chief of Staff provides this level of ownership for a defined scope or ongoing engagement, without requiring the company to make a permanent executive hire.
