How we work together

Three ways of partnering, depending on the project, the timeline, and how much of a hand you need on the wheel.

01 / Project-Based

Project Leadership

Senior ownership of a defined initiative — from scoping through landing. A launch, a transformation, a post-merger integration, a go-to-market for a new line. One decision-maker on point.

8–20 Weeks Fixed Scope
02 / Retainer

Fractional Operator

Senior project leadership on retainer — embedded with your team, owning what's most important on the leadership team's plate that quarter. For companies not ready to hire a full-time VP.

Monthly 1–2 Days / Wk
03 / Ongoing

Advisory

A senior thought partner for founders and operating leaders. Monthly working sessions, quarterly reviews, and access between meetings to think through the harder calls.

Monthly Ongoing

About the Founder

Molly Mader

Founder & Principal

Mader Management is the consulting practice Molly built to do the work she loves most — leading complex, cross-functional projects for companies that need a senior operator in the room.

Before founding the firm, Molly came up through management consulting at Ernst & Young, where she advised consumer products and retail clients on multimillion-dollar transformations. She then moved to a senior brand role at Procter & Gamble, owning the work from inside a Fortune 500 — strategy, P&L, and execution, end to end.

In 2026 she left P&G to launch Mader Management full-time. From her home base in Hyde Park, she takes on a small roster of clients and is in the room for every engagement.

The Approach

How I work

Every engagement follows the same simple rhythm — built around real ownership and clear handoffs.

01

Listen

A first conversation about the project — what's stuck, what good looks like, where it has to land.

02

Plan

A clear scope, a real timeline, and a cadence that fits how your team actually works.

03

Land

Owning the project week to week — running the meetings, managing the team, getting it done.

Contact

Tell me about the project.

A few sentences on what you're working on — what's complex about it and what good looks like. I read every inquiry personally.
