Boris Manhart

Chief Executive Officer

I work with founders, CEOs and boards who are building what’s next – and need clarity to move faster.

My focus is product-market fit, growth strategy and innovation in moments of strategic complexity: scaling, pivots, portfolio decisions, or board-level alignment.

I don’t sell frameworks for the sake of frameworks. I help leadership teams make better decisions, faster – grounded in reality, not theory.

Typical work includes:
– PMF and growth strategy at founder and board level
– Strategic sparring for CEOs and leadership teams
– Innovation and portfolio decisions in scale-ups and SMEs
- Alignement and OKRs
– Board and advisory roles

Based in Zurich. Working internationally.
