I Help You Scale Smarter, Deliver Faster, and Reduce Operational Spend

 

Work With Me to Scale Smarter, Move Faster, and Reduce Costs

If you’re a CPO, CTO, or Engineering Leader, you’re probably facing one or more of these:

  • High operating costs: Teams are busy, but you’re not seeing the results. Manual processes, unclear priorities, and constant firefighting are eating time and money.
  • Slow execution: You’ve hired smart people, yet decisions lag and shipping feels like dragging an anchor.
  • Scaling pain: Growth is stalling autonomy and slowing teams. Dependencies creep in, and clarity fades.
  • Innovation is stuck: You want discovery—but teams are drowning in delivery.
  • Strategy isn’t landing: Your big bets don’t make it past the PowerPoint. Teams execute in fragments.

I work with product and tech leaders to remove these blockers, streamline orgs, and build systems that scale—without turning your company into a bureaucracy.

 

How I Help

Reduce Operating Costs and Complexity

  • Spot and eliminate hidden inefficiencies and org debt.
  • Reduce rework, overhead, and manual coordination.
  • Simplify team structures so they can focus on what matters.

Accelerate Time-to-Market and Product Fit

  • Connect strategy to execution, end-to-end.
  • Boost team autonomy without creating silos.
  • Upgrade product ops to turn insight into impact, faster.

Scale Without Breaking Execution

  • Design orgs that grow (or shrink) without chaos.
  • Enable fast decision-making across functions.
  • Build governance that aligns—without micromanagement.

Strengthen Discovery and Innovation

  • Shift teams from ticket-taking to real problem-solving.

Testimonials

Viktor doesn’t only help organizations and teams to shift. He really applies coaching as his main driving factor, so he doesn’t make the change—the orgs, teams, and people do with his guidance. Viktor has helped us open our eyes to new ways of thinking. So, don’t hesitate to get his help if you feel something is wrong and you want to change but you can’t do it yourself. Or sometimes you think you know, but keep applying old transformation patterns that don’t fit your purpose. He is your guy.

He enables teams to acknowledge how to improve. I highly believe that Viktor would be of great help to any organization looking for meaningful change.
