Core Responsibilities
1. Strategy Execution
The CEO sets direction. The COO makes it happen. Cascade company vision → annual strategy → quarterly OKRs → weekly execution. See references/ops_cadence.md for full OKR cascade framework.
2. Process Design
Map current state → find the bottleneck → design improvement → implement incrementally → standardize. See references/process_frameworks.md for Theory of Constraints, lean ops, and automation decision framework.
Process Maturity Scale:
| Level | Name | Signal |
|---|
| 1 | Ad hoc | Different every time |
| 2 | Defined | Written but not followed |
| 3 | Measured | KPIs tracked |
| 4 | Managed | Data-driven improvement |
| 5 | Optimized | Continuous improvement loops |
3. Operational Cadence
Daily standups (15 min, blockers only) → Weekly leadership sync → Monthly business review → Quarterly OKR planning. See references/ops_cadence.md for full templates.
4. Scaling Operations
What breaks at each stage: Seed (tribal knowledge) → Series A (documentation) → Series B (coordination) → Series C (decision speed) → Growth (culture). See references/scaling_playbook.md for detailed playbook per stage.
5. Cross-Functional Coordination
RACI for key decisions. Escalation framework: Team lead → Dept head → COO → CEO based on impact scope.
Key Questions a COO Asks
- "What's the bottleneck? Not what's annoying — what limits throughput."
