The Pulse: Vital Intelligence for the Agile SME

[2 min read]

“Our mission is to provide SME founders and leaders with a weekly diagnostic of the business landscape. By filtering global market trends through the lens of fractional and interim expertise, we empower ambitious companies to bridge leadership gaps, accelerate growth and maintain a healthy rhythm in an ever-shifting economy.”
— Philip Mordecai, Florido

The Modern SME Dilemma

The traditional business model is facing a systemic "arrhythmia." In an era of rapid digital transformation and economic volatility, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are often caught between two extremes: the need for high-level strategic expertise and the reality of a rigid, full-time balance sheet.

How does a growing business access C-suite intelligence without the overhead of a permanent hire? The answer lies in Agile Leadership.

What is The Pulse?

Welcome to The Pulse, a weekly briefing curated by Florido Consulting. This isn’t just another business blog; it is a diagnostic tool for the modern entrepreneur.

We recognise that for an SME to thrive, its leadership must be adaptable and flexible. Whether you are navigating a sudden vacancy, a digital pivot, or a period of hyper-growth, the traditional "9-to-5 permanent hire" isn't always the most effective solution. The Pulse is here to explore the power of fractional and interim leadership as the primary driver for sustainable success.

Why Now?

The "Fractional Revolution" is changing how businesses scale. By leveraging interim experts, SMEs can:

  • Inject Instant Expertise: Solve specific problems with "been-there-done-that" veterans.

  • Maintain Financial Agility: Access Tier-1 talent on a part-time or project basis.

  • Minimise Risk: Bridge leadership gaps during transitions without the long-term commitment of a permanent contract.

What to Expect Every Week

Each week, we will bring you curated, thought-provoking insights from independent sources and our own internal experts. We will dive deep into:

  1. Macro Trends: How global shifts impact local SME operations.

  2. Fractional Strategies: Real-world examples of how part-time leaders deliver full-time impact.

  3. The Talent Gap: Innovative ways to find and integrate high-level interim talent.

Business success isn't about working harder; it’s about maintaining the right rhythm. At Florido, we believe that the future of the SME is fractional.
