Fractional COO/CCO for Tech Scale-Ups
Technology scale-ups moving from Series B to pre-IPO need experienced operational leadership but often cannot justify or attract full-time C-level hires. Dr. Kurr's fractional model provides exactly this - 2-3 days per week of embedded executive presence with real accountability, team ownership, and board-level authority. His experience building a global organization from scratch at Boehringer Ingelheim demonstrates the ability to create scalable operational infrastructure in dynamic environments. For HealthTech and MedTech companies, he bridges the gap between technology and pharma - understanding both worlds.
Go-to-Market Operations Design
Building scalable sales and marketing operations for B2B SaaS requires the same operational discipline that Dr. Kurr applied at Boehringer Ingelheim - designing repeatable processes, building content supply chains for sales enablement, implementing performance analytics, and creating the organizational structures that support consistent execution across markets. His experience designing omnichannel engagement models translates directly to B2B tech go-to-market, where coordinating inbound marketing, outbound sales, partnerships, and customer success into a unified model is critical for capital-efficient growth.
Partnership & Alliance Strategy
Technology companies depend on partnerships for distribution, integration, and market access - but most manage partnerships reactively rather than strategically. Dr. Kurr's published research on cooperation management and his operational experience structuring enterprise partnerships provide a systematic framework for building and managing technology alliance ecosystems. This includes partner selection criteria, tier-based partner program design, joint go-to-market planning, and partnership governance that ensures mutual value creation.
Organizational Design for Scale
Designing organizations that work from 50 to 500+ employees is one of the most challenging transitions in a technology company's lifecycle. What works with a flat, founder-led team breaks down as the company scales - but premature bureaucracy kills innovation and agility. Dr. Kurr helps technology companies design operating models that scale without losing the culture and speed that made them successful. His five-pillar leadership philosophy - Transparency, Respect, Empowerment, Fairness, and Vision - provides the cultural foundation, while his operating model expertise provides the structural framework.
