Nikki Patton hospice sales consultant in a hospice sales meeting

hospice leadership, when you need, for as long as you need

  

Not a long-term management replacement. A steady hand during the moments when your organization needs one most.   Leadership gaps in hospice don't wait for a convenient time.
 

Book time to talk
Nikki Patton hospice sales consultant in a hospice sales coaching 1:1 meeting

Who is this for

Hospice organizations with an open BD or sales leadership role that needs coverage while a permanent hire is found
Expanding organizations adding new markets or service lines that need experienced leadership to anchor the growth
Post-acquisition teams where leadership alignment and culture reset are needed quickly
Organizations in recovery where performance has drifted and a steady, experienced presence can stop the slide and build a path forward
 

What it includes

Immediate leadership presence
No ramp-up time on the basics. Day one is focused on understanding your specific situation, your team, and your most urgent priorities — not learning what hospice is.
 

Clear scope and expectations
Every engagement starts with a defined scope: what I am here to do, what I am not here to do, how long, and what success looks like. A simple 2-page agreement that can be executed the same day if needed.
 

Team stabilization and clarity
When leadership gaps happen, teams lose direction quickly. The first priority is always to give your people clarity — on expectations, on process, on who is making what decisions and how.
 

Growth or recovery work
Depending on the situation: rebuilding referral partner relationships, resetting the sales process, aligning BD with intake, identifying and addressing the specific gaps that created the performance problem.
 

Built-in exit plan
Every engagement is designed to end. The goal is to leave your team more capable, more aligned, and more confident — not to create a dependency on outside support. I will tell you when it is time for me to step back.
 

What this is not

This is not an open-ended consulting relationship.
This is not role confusion — the scope is clear from day one.
This is not a substitute for hiring a permanent leader.
This is not dependency-building

Typical Engagements

Most fractional and interim engagements run 60–120 days. Some situations resolve faster. Some require longer. Scope, timeline, and structure are defined together before the engagement begins.
 

Proof

- Multi-state hospice and home health leadership experience
- De novo launches, joint ventures, and post-acquisition stabilization
- 20+ years of building and leading BD teams through growth, transition, and recovery
- Known for clarity, directness, and a leadership style that does not create chaos to justify its presence
