Human Risk Management for Mid-Market Leadership Transitions
​
Yinovate Advisory helps CEOs and leadership teams manage human risk during ownership change, succession, M&A, and periods of high-velocity growth—so leadership alignment holds and costly breakdowns are avoided.
​
I work alongside bankers, lawyers, and boards to stabilize leadership behavior, improve decision-making, and reduce the people-side risks that quietly undermine deals, integrations, and transitions.
​
When Human Risk Is Elevated
-
Leadership succession where authority is shifting
-
Sale of a company or ownership change
-
Generational transition in a family business
-
Acquisition or post-merger integration
-
Founder or CEO illness or exit
-
Periods of rapid or high-velocity growth
In many mid-market organizations, leadership pressure concentrates in high-performing women leaders during transitions. My work helps ensure authority transfers cleanly and alignment holds.

What I Believe
I believe a business reflects the intent of its leadership.
How a company is built, led, and stewarded shows up in how people behave, how decisions are made, and what ultimately endures.
When leadership intent is clear and aligned, organizations experience greater trust, cohesion, and performance—especially under pressure. That alignment becomes the foundation for sustainable results and a legacy leaders can stand behind.
This is why my work focuses on restoring coherence at the top, so companies can move forward with clarity, stability, and integrity.
