Why VFO Exists

Fractional titles are self-assigned.
Operating levels are blurred.
Executives are left to guess who is senior and who is not.

VFO changes that.

It verifies your operating level based on evidence, not self-promotion.

No shortcuts.
No inflated titles.
No pretending.

Just clarity.

 

What VFO Verifies

• Your true operating level
• Your scope discipline
• Your decision authority
• How you structure outcomes
• How you communicate with CEOs
• How you protect boundaries

This is the credibility CEOs have been waiting for.

 

Operating Levels

Certification is awarded at a level you’ve earned, not a level you pick.

Examples:
• Fractional Specialist or Lead
• Fractional Head or VP
• Fractional C-Suite

If your evidence supports the level, you earn it.
If it doesn’t, you’ll be certified at the level your work supports.

Fair. Clear. Professional.
