1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 How fractional leaders get hired isn’t random — but it does follow a very different logic than most people expect. If you’ve been having good conversations, receiving positive signals, and still not seeing those conversations turn into paid work, this episode will help you understand what’s really happening on the hiring side. In this episode, we step out of the leader’s perspective and into the mindset of the organisation making the decision — because fractional leadership hiring doesn’t follow a traditional job search or sales process. Instead, hiring happens when recognition, trust, and timing align. In this episode, we explore: Why fractional leadership opportunities don’t follow a linear funnel The difference between visibility and recognisability The three conditions that consistently lead to fractional leadership hiring Why timing matters more than effort How trust is built before a hiring decision is ever made Why so many capable leaders get stuck in “almost” conversations &amp;nbsp; This episode is for senior women in tech who: Are fractional-ready but not yet chosen Are getting interest, but not conversion Want to stop guessing — without resorting to hustle or salesy tactics Listen if you want to: Understand how fractional hiring decisions are actually triggered Feel calmer and more in control of the process Make your leadership easier to recognise and hire Next steps: Book a Strategy Session (Positioning + Hiring Clarity) 👉 https://tonicollis.com/lets-chat Continue listening to the Fractional Series: Episode 284 — Am I Ready to Be a Fractional Leader?
