Hi, I'm Charles.
I build the reputation that enters the room before you do.
Founder, author and fractional CDO. I coach US executives and B2B founders on personal brand. I am based in the Philippines and work US hours.
The story.
I started in IT in 1978 and spent nearly five decades inside Fortune 500s: McDonald's, Motorola, Navistar and WorldCom. I built systems, ran datacenters, and watched how large organizations actually work.
Then I lived through the collapses: WorldCom and the housing crash. I lost everything twice. Those weren't setbacks. They were the curriculum that forced me to build the Maverick playbook: how to turn crisis into revenue, agency, and an exit when the system fails you.
Receipts, not adjectives.
Fractional CDO
Fractional Chief Design Officer for B2B founders.
A one-person company with an AI bridge crew.
I run the company. The crew runs the lanes. I teach in live sessions, on US hours.
Four lines from the book.
- Receipts over adjectives.
- One name, one spine.
- Say who you are not for.
- A weekly loop beats a big launch.
Same name, same spine, every platform.
