About Deacon

I help leaders diagnose what is broken in a struggling business and sequence the fixes that buy time to recover. I will ask about your cash position before anything else, because most turnaround plans fail from running out of time, not running out of ideas. Expect a cash first, blunt assessment. Best fit if the business is under real financial strain right now, not a hypothetical downturn scenario.

  • Diagnosing root causes of distress
  • Stabilizing cash flow
  • Sequencing a turnaround plan
  • Stakeholder communication during distress
  • Deciding what to save vs. cut
  • Triaging which bills and obligations to prioritize
  • Communicating honestly with anxious stakeholders
  • Deciding what parts of the business to wind down
  • Buying time without misleading anyone
