Detrick Strategy believes leaders should have enough information to understand whether an engagement is likely to fit before investing time in a lengthy sales process.
The ranges below are intended to create clarity—not to turn complex strategic work into a fixed menu. Final scope and investment depend on the complexity of the work, the level of access and involvement required, the number of people or systems involved, and the pace at which the organization needs to move.
Strategic Intensive
A focused engagement around a defined challenge, decision, transition, or opportunity.
Typical engagements may include executive and stakeholder interviews, rapid assessment, facilitated working sessions, strategic options, decision frameworks, and a practical path forward.
Typical investment: $7,500–$20,000
Executive Advisory
Ongoing strategic counsel for a leader, owner, board chair, or executive team navigating complexity, competing priorities, transition, or consequential decisions.
Engagements are shaped around the leader and the moment. They may include regular advisory sessions, preparation for important decisions or conversations, review of plans and materials, and focused support between meetings.
Typical investment: $5,000–$12,000 per month
Fractional Strategy & Transformation Leadership
Embedded senior leadership for organizations that need experienced strategic capacity without immediately adding a permanent executive role.
This work may include enterprise strategy, transformation leadership, cross-functional coordination, leadership alignment, operating structures, implementation oversight, and accountability for movement.
Typical investment: $15,000–$30,000+ per month
Leadership and Stakeholder Alignment
Designed working sessions or facilitated processes that help leadership teams, boards, partners, or key stakeholders build shared understanding, make decisions, and move in a coordinated direction.
Scope may range from a focused session to a multi-stage alignment process supported by interviews, synthesis, facilitation, and follow-through.
Typical investment: $10,000–$30,000+
What shapes the investment
The final scope and fee are influenced by:
- The complexity and urgency of the challenge
- The amount of discovery and preparation required
- The number of leaders, teams, partners, or stakeholders involved
- The depth of Cheryl’s role in decision-making and execution
- Travel, facilitation, or specialized expertise required
- The duration and pace of the engagement
A first conversation is designed to determine whether there is a meaningful fit—not to pressure anyone into a sale.
