Mark Kaminsky
Business Owner | CEO Advisor | Board Facilitator
If your business still depends on you to make the key decisions, it’s not scaling. It’s bottlenecking.
I work with founder-CEOs who have built strong businesses—but remain central to how they run.
Not because of effort. Because of structure.
When that happens:
- Decisions slow down
- Leaders escalate instead of owning
- Growth increases pressure instead of leverage
That’s not a strategy problem.
It’s a decision system problem.
My focus is simple:
Helping founder-CEOs make faster, better decisions as their business grows.
Through peer advisory boards and structured leadership systems, I help CEOs move from:
Operator → System builder
Decision maker → Decision architect
So the business can:
- run without constant escalation
- scale without adding complexity
- grow without draining the founder
My own journey includes building and scaling businesses across multiple industries, including co-founding FitChef. Like most founders, I’ve experienced both growth and failure—and the cost of being the bottleneck.
That’s why I now work exclusively with CEOs who are ready to remove themselves as the constraint.
If you’re still the person most decisions depend on, that’s where we start.
