Chris Buckingham
Fractional COO and Certified Stratifier | Founder, SolveCXO | Founder-Led Businesses
About
Every growing business reaches a point where experience matters more than good ideas. I'm the founder of SolveCXO, a Fractional COO practice serving the Fargo-Moorhead region and beyond. I bring more than 25 years in technology and business leadership, including founding, growing, and selling my own IT services company. As a Certified Stratifier, I run a 60-minute working session with you and your leadership team. You leave with a written Business Strategy document built from your numbers, with industry benchmarks filling any gaps. From there, I can help you carry it out as your Fractional COO: clearing operational bottlenecks, building accountability, tightening labor and vendor costs, and building the scorecards that show whether the plan is actually getting done.
