When growth outpaces organizational maturity

As companies grow or transform, complexity increases faster than structure.
Business ambitions accelerate, teams expand, and technology footprints grow — often without clear ownership, prioritization, or decision frameworks.
This is rarely an IT problem alone. It reflects a maturity gap across business, technology, and leadership.

A

Priorities multiply, but there is no shared view of what truly matters

A

Business and IT teams act in good faith, yet move in different directions

A

Decisions slow down as ownership becomes unclear or fragmented

A

Execution stalls, not due to lack of effort, but lack of structure

A

Risks (security, resilience, scalability) are understood, but rarely addressed decisively

At this stage, organizations don’t need more tools, methodologies, or firefighting.
They need experienced leadership to establish clear ownership, align business intent with technology decisions, and restore execution discipline.

This is typically when organizations bring in fractional CIO leadership.

What fractional CIO leadership looks like in practice

Fractional CIO leadership is not about adding tools or accelerating projects.
It is about restoring clarity, ownership, and execution as complexity grows.
This consistently shows up in three concrete areas.

Regain strategic control

Rebuild governance and delivery processes around business outcomes. Align initiatives, budgets, and teams on a single roadmap.

Secure continuity and resilience

Identify and mitigate risks. Strengthen resilience and confidence through clear security and continuity frameworks.

Modernize with purpose

Simplify and automate your IT landscape to reduce costs, boost reliability, and scale efficiently.

ABOUT ME

DAMIEN PETEAU

I’m a global CIO with over 20 years of experience leading digital transformations in highly regulated and fast-growing organizations, including Crédit Agricole, AXA, Wolters Kluwer, and EcoVadis.

Over two decades, I have led large, multicultural teams across regions, languages, and time zones, while delivering complex technology programs in demanding business environments. This experience shaped my conviction that sustainable transformation depends as much on people and leadership as it does on systems and architecture.

After years driving global teams and large-scale initiatives, I founded AltaGrid Consulting to bring the same clarity, alignment, and execution discipline to organizations in transition.

I believe technology delivers its value only when people, processes, and business objectives move together. That is why I focus on restoring structure, clear decision ownership, and effective collaboration between business and IT, so that technology becomes a growth enabler rather than a bottleneck.
