The newsletter shows you the blueprint. Working with us means we help you build from it.

The Coul & Gold Group works with boards, CEOs, and Chiefs of Staff to design the operating structures that make great leadership possible. Three ways in — each scoped to where you are.

Advisory Services

The operating infrastructure that makes great leadership possible.

One-to-one engagements over three or six months. One discovery call to find out which one fits.

For Executives

Design the structure, define the authority, and build the operating dynamic — pre-hire, post-hire, or mid-relationship.
3-month engagement$12,000
6-month engagement$20,000
Intake call + 6 or 12 sessions

First-Time Chiefs of Staff

Everyone talks about the first 90 days. We know it takes a full year — expectations, stakeholder map, operating rhythm.
3-month engagement$6,000
6-month engagement$11,000
Intake call + 6 or 12 sessions

Experienced Chiefs of Staff

You've learned the role. Now reclaim its full scope, rebuild the operating relationship, and position for what's next.
3-month engagement$6,000
6-month engagement$11,000
Intake call + 6 or 12 sessions
Assessments & Tools

Instruments built for the people at the top of the organisation.

Assessment

CoS Readiness

Find out exactly where you stand — before someone else finds out for you. Practitioner-reviewed, never algorithmic. Entry $799 · Full $2,500 · Search-firm $3,000. Entry fee credited in full against the Full Assessment within 90 days.

Open
Program

Low Friction Leadership

The most expensive leadership problems never show up on a budget. Self-led course, open cohort, or a closed cohort for your leadership team.

Waitlist open
Profile

Leadership Operating Profile

What you see from the outside is not the full picture. Commissioned by leaders, boards, incoming Chiefs of Staff, and hiring organisations.

Book a scoping call
Speaking

The talk that changes how your organisation thinks about leadership itself.

Not leadership content — leadership reckonings, built from the White House, the House of Commons, the Gates Foundation, and the CFPB.

Rachael Goldfarb

The Chief of Staff role: what it actually is, why most organisations get it wrong, and what it costs them. Rigorous, specific, and frequently uncomfortable in the best way.

Suzi Coul

The operating environment you create is a leadership decision — most leaders have never made it deliberately. Direct, analytical, and characteristically human.

Joint engagements bring both sides of the desk into the same room — keynotes, executive workshops, offsites, and panels.

Tell us where you are. We'll tell you what fits.

Every engagement starts with a conversation, not a pitch. Thirty minutes. No obligation. You will leave knowing something useful.
